That's a lot of neem to one gallon. I use 1-2 tsp (5-10ml) per gallon of neem oil, 5ml of protekt, and 1/8th tsp of 200x aloe. I find about 80-82 degrees to be the sweet spot for keeping things emulsified without getting chunky.

Cooffeeee...... :sleep:

badass thanks pattahabi :) what amount of aloe would you reccomend if i dont have the powder? normal amount for a foliar?

the trick is to pull on the edges when you transplant, water the edges first and it'll "fill" in a lil bit, one of the reasons I prefer some legumes growing in the soil before my cannabis gets in the container, keeps the smartpot more rigid, kinda gives it some structure, so to speak.

ahh nice trick. I knew the pros had a solution lol i have legumes in my CC seed mix. how does alfalfa do as a CC?

I just keep topping them off and if it gets bad I just dip the pots in a tub of water to soak them instead of watering from the top.

unfortuantely i cant pick up my 10 gal planter and do that lol shit even a 7 gal would heavy as fuark soaked. or maybe im just a weak bitch :p itd help if i had handles but i still wouldnt do it. im also in a small space and would have to manuever a distance to soak it and ya too much hassle and too risky, i cant afford to bump the tent or something and fuck everything up lol or once again maybe im just a weak bitch lmao

Oh I know, they're not by choice. I had a couple larger airplanters in the mail from Amazon but they sent the wrong size so I just returned the order and am going out tomorrow to get bigger solid plastic planters for the next round (plants are in a Scrog already). But, I'm taking a lot of cuts from the ones in 3 gallons so I don't think I'll see too terrible of a loss in yield. I'm contemplating just getting one massive 15+ container to go next to my 10 gallon hard planter as I'm in just a 2x4x5 tent, so space is limited.


I'm hoping the cc I got from buildasoil will be what I need. So far their products are top notch so I have high hopes. I also keep aloe in my containers. Have been thinking of planting a marigold or two as well from my grandfathers advice.

So 2:7 or 10 gallon no-tills, 4 sq foot mod SCRoGs for each, 300-350 watts LED actual, All the bells and whistles included;I.e cover crop, silicate, neem oil....take clones 1 week before flower, have them rooted and vegging 1 week at the latest into flower and so 7-9 week veg I could expect to hit....lol....about a lb of some of the tastiest organically grown buds in the world? And just pull the plant, drop in the new one from a 3 gallon and flower out? Sound decent?

lol I like how you laid out your post. not knocking you, it's just funny how it seems so simple yetyou alralready know it took a shit ton of planning and reading lol. I also am perplexed as to what to do when harvest time for no tills. I know most just chop the stem and leave the roots in there, but idk if you have to wait or can plant new bean/clone right away. Yanking the roots would damage the ecosystem in the soil.

it looks like she is starting to show signs of mag def. Could it be the woodchips I have as a mulch? they're from BAS and Im also using BAS soil. I did also have gnats. I think since the BTI waterings and top dress they are dying off though. haven't seen any.. fingers crossed.

Some poeple use the liquid aloe products (lily of the desert/valley) comes to mind. You need to be careful of the preservatives/additives if using a store bought liquid. I use powder or fresh personally.

You know I thought about doing a single bed for the entire thing and decided against it for some reason. Now I think it would have worked perfectly. Oh well lol.

airpump and airstones was to prevent hypoxic soil conditions and boost O2 to the roots==== came up with it while smoking with other growers:eyesmoke:.....did control test under both lights(induction & led), end results was that it didn't do shit compared to just plain LOS. stones probably clogged in the first week....lol

yeah i'm a fan of the root trapper II fabric pots, don't air prune which i like in winter runs, pricey though. outdoors is were they shine due to the reflective material, less evaporation .

going with 30 gal this test run...............shhh don't tell ...... it's a secret:wink:

air stones wont work but a larger bed with a "thermal battery" does here is a few of my thermal battery in my smaller bed. i have made a few of these (4) about to make one more in my big hooper..... the air is pulled from a hole in the ceiling that draws from the upstairs living space with a converted bathroom fan then boosted by a 4 inch inline near the bed for sound dampening as the greenhouse is attached to a living space...
