you need good drainage so that the roots don't drown. #2 DO NOT CROWD THEM!!! unless they are clones......only clones will not fight for rootspace. any plants derived from seed will fight for all the possible root space and more.

drainage are important and you got that aswer ... will say to you need couple holes (4) of 10-13mm on the bottom

how you mean all females in it ? one tub one plant, to save space 2 is max per tub.

alright i will start rock wool a week before i plant then move them outside in april in 32 oz powerade bottles i bottle for each ( i drink a lot of poweraid :)) then after the first month( done with veg start with flower once i sort out the males and females) i will plant them in the tubs 2 one 25 gal tub for the males (seeds and pollen) each of the 55 gal tub for the females B.U.D.

im going to train the females to reach for the light and not spread out to crowd each other

The 55 gallon tub is like more the width of a sheet of plywood 5 foot by like 3 1/2 feet wide and like 2 foot tall ( is 2 feet enough root space for many females in the same tub?? do you get what im sayin) by the Dimensions of the 55 gal tub its also in cattail which gets about 3 inches of water with a good rain

so with the as long as i put good drain hole where each plant will be will the root have enough room and can gointo the march and the actual earth soil??

dont know your space to can planing ... you are designer

for one male you dont need more of 1-2gal. Male plant are always taller then female, to till flowering ... and his size do not play big rolle for you.You need space and plant size/branches for female...I want say save space.You will see good male in 1gal same like in 25gal.

plans will push roots in all 55gal one or 12 its a same.First roots then body,that plant reducing by self but will never stop to produce roots or body.So, you dont have separated places in that 55gal...all plants will push roots in whole tub...some more some less,genetics will say that ...
However your plants will be 4-5 foot tall + tub of 1-2 foot 5-7 foot.
I will put less plants but will top him 3-4 times...I can bet to you will haved same yield.

5-7 foot are good,if you can hide them ...and care on smell ... ...

hell yeah dude i plan on flowering at 8 - 10 inches how big do you think the suns 10,000 will get my plants at one month i assume the roots will get crowded put will it be doable becase i thought it is only an issue when you are in veg before sexing with root ball

55 Gal. Drums??? If they are standing upright, you still need a couple drainage holes. I wouldn't put more than 4 per drum. Pollen can travel a mile or so, in the right wind & conditions. Go plant them anywhere, way away. When it's time to pollinate, just collect pollen in a plastic bag, & do your females, one branch only if desired, unless you want 2000 seeds per female.

fuckin plan on gettin hindu kush and the hawaii 5-0 i really want i think i will be the only one growing it on here

south texas appriate the info and sorry bout your bust...

naw its not a drum it the BIGGEST rubber maid tub you can get like 2 1/2 wide 4 1/2 long and 2 foot high dam i think your right on the pollen part esspically becuase there gonna be like 5 foot in the air and the space that i have is real stelth i plannes on planting in the middle of this field but houses could partially see me if someones looking in the field but i want to edge of the field (it rolls downhill) and its by a creek so cattail and marsh grass choose to grow there but still isnt a lot maybe 20 yards by 20 yards of it and i mave a baby trail lending it to the main part and dont have many option becuase i no longer live in the country where it was easy as hell

before i joined i once had 7 nl plants but had to cut them premature only got about all i got was a zip each plant had a little over an wight dry(can you say popcorn but had red hairs) the reason why i did this frost came earlier then exspected for illinois like middle of september planted august

i live by alot of house by no one goes in this field becase its live mini arizona in illinois haha its dry and stickers vines ect and at the bottom of the feild is the creek and the cattail ect.

these 2 rubbermaid are my only choice im gonna but as many females i get unless i get another rubbermaid (which might be good i plan planting 16 1 week veg seedling i oasis or rockwool(hopefully the graden store has them going there today) gonna look at special nutes they got to (O SALE) im a cheap ass as you can from my plan hahaha lmao jokes on me (not really just hard for cash but wont be fairly soon in summer but dont plan on sellin like dumbasses that get poped up for selling to whoever only gonna tell my dude once i harvest (friends since we kids) and forvever were all in this game....

whens a good time to pollonate my females???


hahah thats alot but hopefully help you understand my plan a little better sorry for spelling i didn't check it just hopefully yall can understand

Yeah, bust sucks- 2 more babies popped their heads last night. Here's what I don't understand, why plant in containers at all? The soil available is deep enough to be fertilize by the feet of Chinese. Containers raise the "plain-sight" of the plant too much, if not needed. Hindu Kush, don't know. However, my favorite comes from Afghanistan, Afghan & Master Kush. The Kush part means it originally came from the Kushastan (?) Mountains in the North of Afghan. That shit will lock your ass down. I prefer the Afghan over the Kush, due to yield.
When to pollinate. Save 6 seeds, plant 2 months after main plants are planted. Kill all males as they show sex on original grow. Reasoning is, male pollen sacks are ready 2 months prior to a female being ready to be pollinated. In natural life, seeds come up at all times of the Spring & Summer. Out of the 6 seeds, you'll get at least one male, bearing fresh pollen, for your horny Ladies/Sluts. I bag it, place over one branch per plant, or less, & shake it on, getting all the seeds I chose. You should try the Cal. Orange Bud, it's awesome. One Easy Sativa will put out as much as 5 HK will, and fun, tie the bitch down, she'll be as big as a VW. She won't get you stoned, but she will get you high, IE, Indica VS Sativa.
