While I don't find pot laundry much fun, the results that I get with the GeoPots is totally worth it.Nice upcan! Your plants are looking so happy to have you as their mother.
I just did a load of GeoPots last weekend and my washing machine didn't like it one bit. It leaked all over the floor and I had to rinse them again with the hose outside. They came out nice in the end though:
Six 7g, one 5g, two 2g, and two 1g going all the way back to summer 2021. And I just found four more 1g post tucked away that need doing...next time!
Wish some of mine had handles. I suppose that there is nothing stopping me from adding some.
We'll see if I ever get to it.
In the winter I vacuum mine out. In the summer I spray them off with my jet hose or brush them out if they are dry enough.that's the big crappy about fabric bags..
two solutions :
1) large laundromat washing machine. the big ones are called extractors. you may get chased away by someone brandishing a broomstick, or something more threatening, in a foreign language.
2) pressure washer. either home or commercial car wash. rip them out good with a pressure washer either do a hand clean or use a home washing machine after.
well maybe 3 solutions ..
3) just go back to cheap easy to source hard sides. more and more folk i know are doing this after a few years of fabric.
It isn't so bad. Just a little time consuming. I have enough pots that I only have to do it biannually.
I don't have a HE machine but I still went on the lower side with the water and don't use soap at all. I just used the color safe bleach(H202) on the delicate cycle. I move them around after the spin and do an extra rinse.I'll never grow weed in plastic pots (I can't imagine how rootbound they'd be after 80+ days of veg) but less soap and less water should get them through the HE washing machine better next time!
Most times I let them soak for an hour first before I start the cycle.
Thank you Jon.Your buds are amazing! Lovely autos!
Easy plants, once again.
I know! Great to have you follow along!Hey VG, I've been following on here.
I seem to have halted the issue I had with the Blueberry. Just a few rusty spots now but the plant looks a much healthier green.Your wookies, cookies and blueberry are looking immaculate
I feel bad at how behind I am on your journal. It's nothing personal at all. I hope that you know that. I'm behind on everyone's. I luv ya but I'm up to my eyeballs this summer.Your @CoffeeShopSeeds spears make me happy I have a tent full of CoffeeShopSeeds plants V! They're fantastic!
I just found out that it may get even more busy and complicated. It's a long story. A bit to long to tell today but I will spill the tea soon.
Gotta say that I'm happy with the @CoffeeShopSeeds Blueberry Auto. Nice structure and is hella stinky with blueberry goodness. Wish my Critical would have popped. That plant may have to wait a bit longer to get sprouted. It depends upon on how the summer/fall goes for me.
I can tell you this much, I may very well be going down to two, possibly one grow space if all goes as planned.
I'm as nervous as a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs.
I just hope that I can continue to grow...
