I wish that's all I watered. My pineapple express v2 is drinking a gallon every other day. And I imagine the clone I'm going to mainline will drink just as much. And I'm in soil. And drinking that much.
Damn you must have good drainge and really good areiated soil. I only fed 3 times of tiger bloom once half tsp 2nd time 2.5tsp them only 1 tsp. But watered regularly with epsom salt sometimes. Thank you guys soo much!

I use 3g smart pot. I measure out my soil with 1 cup of ffof. 2 cups organic earthgro soil, and 2 1/2 cups washed perlite. Coarse size. I was the powder off. Mix that up. Then fill my pot. And mix it again until my pot if full. Which for 3g that usually mixed 3 times and it's full. But I water with ph'd water then skip a day and feed the next morning. Skip a day water with ph'd water then feed. And repeat. Use lucas formula. 8ml micro and 16ml bloom. All through grow. Calimagic as needed. And h2o2 5ml per gallon both feedings. And watering. Nothing else. Which of course I don't start full strength nutes. I start qtr then half then 3/4 then full. I may have to go above full on the pev2. She's a pig. 8/16/5/5 Is 900ppm give or take. And she's askin for more in veg right now. Next feed will be around 1100 probably.

as long as they don't get heat stress, i'm good....when i get home, i take them out of the room and move them in cooler settings for a time, check them, and then i set them out in evening sun, only after temps drop bellow 90 though, today is gonna be tough cause of the temps we are gonna have...

Thanks this my first grow back after over a 3 year hiatus. Bc my ex neighbirs were douche bags and called the law on me bc I wouldn't sell em shit. But you could smell outside. I had 9 plants. Original pineapple express. Fuckers took my shit and me to jail. Did 39 months paper. It sucked.

I think last time I counted was 33. But I have like 8 or 10 down short that are coming up I'm jus gonna keep letting it shoot them out until the blue mammoth auto is done. Then I'll flip the clones I'm mainlining and the big pev2. So 3 in flower of it.

No kidding! I was thinking of using one of those. Itd cost me about 10 bucks to put together lol. Hmmm
yep, i've got all the pictures of how i did it too. I'm a member of another forum, and i put it up there. I call it the redneck pot....cost you about $10 to $15 to make. All you need is a plastic trash can, and a drill, and a good knife...makes for one hell of a big pot
