Makes sense...she was in an 18 gallon storage tub with holes drilled into the bottom for drainage...I always felt like I should have drilled some around the sides but at the bottom to drain where it "curves"

That rainbow effect is very appropriate for that pic :clap: Amazing!!!

Hey guys i know you don't know me but i was browesing around and i stumbled upon this post. but I've found a really cheap easy way too deal with those brown tips on your roots, also promoting amazing root growth. which will help overall qaulity.
1.Make more holes or bigger ones Kind of like the bottom of net pots. Small enough to hold hyddroton pebbles.
2.make a 2-4 inch layer with the hydroton pebbles. the bigger your pot obviously you might need a bigger layer.
3.Cut a circle out of a sheet of felt root cloth. or in your case a 12 inche sqaure or smaller. assuming your pots Are More narrow at the bottom.
4.Place layer of root cloth over the layer of evenly, level spread out hydro pepples.
5.Put your favorite Growing mediums in pots right above root cloth.

Imo, This will makes it hard to over or under water your plants. And prevent root rot at tips. You can use this
with any size container....bigger the better. You can also use pig perlite size chunks or lava rocks. Ive just found hydroton works best with my medium..By the way nice grow. What teas do you use?

Thank you :mrgreen:

I was in 18 gallon storage totes when I experienced that and I believe I didn't have enough drain holes. I'm in 12" square containers now and I do put hydroton in the bottoms before adding the soil

I make my teas based on what my plants need at the time...always castings, liquid seaweed and molasses, often Jamaican but as I said it depends on what my plants want :bigjoint:

I thought you would get a kick out of it! My wife also loves pink. We are talking about getting gel coated in a bright pink next summer.

The original plumbing was 1 inch copper and it has been eaten away by the chemicals. The plastic pipe is 2 inch and it allows me to get better performance out of my pump and filter.

When I put in the the greenhouse I will also redo the pool plumbing.
