Wardrobe Grow - CFL- Only - Auto Mazar + Rescued Cannatonic + Dieseltonic

what I have been thinking is taking the top of a milk jug or one of the big several gallon kitty litter jugs or similar, cutting it about in the middle and using it as an umbrella for the plant by attaching it to the bottom of the topsy when I plant the seedling, roots through cap hole, bottle attached to bottom, dirt packed in to hold roots... should act as an "umbrella" when watering, keeping the drainage off your plant. If I could get some sheets of flexible plastic, I'd try cutting and rolling cones, but ghetto, I'm thinking milk jugs, lol.

I like your milk jugs, Rune

Thanks... was just something I was thinking about earlier this year when we got a late cold front and non-stop rain. I almost lost 2 tomatos because of that, so started thinking about "topsy umbrella add-on" type thing

You must love your tomatoes very much, Rune.

Great Idea

 

[runewulfsong]

LOL... I like having good quality, nutritious and good tasting food... and I can't afford to shop at health food stores all the time, so I meet our needs in our garden. I do, however, love tomatos, lol... especially the heriloom ones that you don't see in supermarkets... the flavors are amazing and varied.

So far you have passed im sure

Wonder how the roots will grow in there.

roots grow like crazy in those lol

 

[WildRosebud]

I had a plant in a topsy for a month to test it out the root ball was impressive. It was easy to feed without water dripping out , I just fed it a cup a day and poured slow. I did not want water on my bedroom floor so I paid close attention.

 

[Richard Richardson]

Thanks for the tip, Wildrosebud I think you're right. Less is more here.

The coco was soaked in Pro-cal and medi-one and aussie tonic to expand initially with water.

Then I mixed it with potting compost (which has 40% wood-bits in it) and laid that in the planter.

It was not overly wet, but had enough excess liquid for 1 drip every 30 or so seconds.

I watered a bit yesterday, not much but it still dripped out onto the plant.

I've been reading your blog entries. Very interesting stuff.

Good luck with that

Day 32 of Bloom

They got 1/2 gal of water with a dose of Massive Bloom last night

Not too happy about this. I have raised the lights

Lower down is fluffier

 

[alex801]

Impressive RICO it doesn't seem like two mins ago u purchased ur Scrog net

 

[Spimp]

Fluffier is better than empty space. You keep the dense ones, ship me the fluffy's.

I know! I was thinking the same thing today and it's all your fault

 

[Richard Richardson]

I like fluffy. I mean the higher cola looks a bit thin on top.

This strain likes the lights higher than normal.

I think it's affected by the relative light proximity.
