Re: Watch This Flux - 1st 420 Outdoor Fluxing - Presents Fluxy Lady - Fully Restraine

Oh never mind, I am a blind one :biglaugh:

Basically, the watering globe as far as I seen, it's something you buy at the store, does exactly same thing as the bottle, except it looks better :rofl:

Thank you everybody for all the suggestions :Love:

TEST TO VERIFY, NEVER TRUST WHAT IS READ / SEEN BY AMATEURS ONLINE :goodluck:

my bottle is now dripping one drop/ 17 seconds

No offense taken here! Pots are 35 cm diameter. According to my friend google it says 6.6 gallons. They are 3 weeks old now.

excellent, if your plants are in 6.6 gallons of soil, you only have to water them once, on day 5 or 6. how many plants do you need to water? are all pots the same size?

high Teddy :passitleft: what do you think of the 2, watering on vacation methods we came up with? I'm testing 2 bottles now, I think that 15 year old on the internet could be an amateur.

hope allswell :surf:

I invented them and I make them from materials found in my yard/house. The ring under Fluxy, is from an old house fan that I cut up. The ring on the WWidow is from a cut up "tomato hoop" .

Usually most growers can drill holes around the edge of any plastic pot.

I put the WW in a ceramic pot that did not want to be drilled through, I will be re configuring the WW by wrapping a wire beneath the upper lip, then I can attach wires to that. Hope that makes sense, LMK. :peace:

Totally makes sense and is quite smart. Very MacGyver-like! +reps for ingenious use of the tomato cage hoops and house fan parts!

Looking very sexy :Love:

But I am a little worried, are the tripod legs corroded? or is that plain dust?
Rust dust landing on the bud and then inhaled/ingested can cause some potential health hazards! I suggest an inspection sir !
:circle-of-love:

almost missed this, good eye! thanks again , daT, I plan on doing the "bud wash" to see if I notice a significant difference

compared to thee same bud, unwashed, I'll also be looking for damaged, or loss of trix.

I appreciate sharing that concern :green_heart:

Really really nice journal! I enjoyed reading and found it inspiring to try outdoor but that's unfortunately not my situation right now, so sticking to indoor with a little more control (I'm a control freak)

Once I've built a little vegging tent for clones by cutting up a cooler bag worked great until my wife accidentally threw it out -.-

Took a clone off my Bubblegum XL just before I began flower and it's now growing from regular sunlight from my window, seems healthy and happy wondering what to do with it at the moment.. my secondary ballast only works with HPS spectres and i'm not looking to set the clone into flower just yet..

I guess it's to late to put it outside what do you think?

thanks for the clone machine-share, I missed this earlier, forgive me. It is not too late to put any plant outside, just be sure the clone has established roots before giving it too much sun, if the roots are just starting, she'll do fine in indirect sunlight.

thanks again Jason:goodjob:
 
Re: Shout out!!

i would probably make sure they are not in the direct sun most of the day being young

DEFINITELY true, Indiva vet. That's how I lost all my first seedlings. Because I'm an idiot.

no you are not, MrT, idiots don't last more than a day in this yard. NO SLACK GIVEN!!

just kidding, it's late I'm a bit whacked.

How's the Mrs & your girls? thanks for stopping by :thumb:

Heya,

Seems like you're talking about a ton of water - I would think a couple gallons would would be enough for 10 days. How many pots?

The $38 pump setup sounds fine - simple and affordable, and adaptable to a lot of situations.

The water globes work fine, but they don't work on the principle you're imagining - it has nothing to do with getting the right size hole. The video DaT found - she did not understand the principle. Her wine bottle actually is a 'water globe' - everything she did with her plastic water bottle is not a 'water globe'

A water globe works on the principle that the water can't get out unless air bubbles get in. The outlet isn't a small hole - it's wide open. When you stick it down in the soil, air has to get through the soil to bubble up and replace the water. You stick it in, a couple bubbles come up and a little water comes out, the soil gets wet and now air can't get through it, so the rest of the water just sits in the globe, suspended by vacuum. In a day or two the soil dries enough for air to pass through it, a few bubbles go up the globe, a little water comes out, the soil gets wet, the air gets blocked, the water stops, days pass, the soil dries, air bubbles up, water comes out,................The rate at which the water gets used depends only on how fast the soil dries.

The commercial ones are better, because they have a long thin 'neck' that you can push deep into the soil, and that keeps most of the soil from getting waterlogged. That's why a wine bottle with a long skinny neck would work. A standard soda bottle is no good - you can't push it deep enough into the soil. I have seen them work perfectly for house plants for up to 2 weeks My impression is that they hold 1/2 to 1 liter and should do a 1 to 2 gallon pot for 1 to 2 weeks

Now I get it! Slowgro, you get REPS for explaining the logic, I was way off course, that 15 year old on the video, w/ :lot-o-toke:

confused my understanding of how the "globe" actually waits for dry soil, before it can purge, brilliant,

I've seen small ones in my neighbors houseplants, they work!

we have to smoke a fatty, I rolled one up when I saw more than a paragraph, lol :goodjob:


puff time :passitleft:
 
Re: Watch This Flux - 1st 420 Outdoor Fluxing - Presents Fluxy Lady - Fully Restraine

You could make a huge 'water globe' from a 55 gallon drum and a piece of tubing you stuck in the soil. But not using a plastic storage bin. To work properly the drum and tube have to be sealed airtight - it all depends on having a vacuum in the drum

:cheesygrinsmiley:

:rofl: cheers Mr Teddy , finally, a friend has provided my first :rofl: I can't sleep without 2 of those,
what else might you have for me? seen any moths? wanna puff? :passitleft:

thanks again for poppin in and leaving a gem of a one-liner.:thumb:

Wow :Love:
+Reps for this logical explanation :circle-of-love: It totally makes sense :high-five: Shame I hate alcohol and have no wine bottles :biglaugh:
 
Re: Watch This Flux - 1st 420 Outdoor Fluxing - Presents Fluxy Lady - Fully Restraine

How can the water flow out unless there is a place to allow air into the space that the drained water leaves behind?

Here's part of my problem, an example for my ,,,,, you know (one excuse for example, below)

I like to read and I read a lot, but I could not tell you the name of one character in the chapter I read 12 hours ago.

Is this why the plastic tub won't work? :hmmm: I will re-read your explanation, I'm sure the answer is in there.

Dumpster behind the closest establishment serving wine?

I heard that wine bottles are over abundant in most of Europe.

You should share your FINAL plan here before we lose slowgro,

please include those answers to my exhausting keystrokes,

we're not done just yet, we'll sleep plenty, when we :rip:
