SomeGuy's LED & Other Grows. 2014-15 Season

Sip with a fabric pot is basically an octopot like what @captainmorgan uses


Here's a diy version from the sip gardening group on fb

On the left is quantum kush in the sip from 2 weeks

The right one is gg4 in the sip for 3 weeks since transplant.

These are being moved into flower tonight



I have 3 more quantums and 1 gg4 in 18 gal sip's that are smaller but will veg for another 2 -3 weeks. I just had run the first 2 just to make sure I like them. I only have 1 airstone in each resi.

Then I have 12 various plants in 5 gal sips. I just put a black 5 gal nursery pots inside 5 gal home depot buckets.

I have a feeling with living soil you don't need to go as big in sip's as you would normally with fabric pots.

When you build them make sure to take a day. The 18 gals take me 90 min to build and fill /transplant each one. The 5 gals are a much faster build though .

so are you cutting a hole in the smart pot for the net pot to sit down in water?

Octopot! I knew I had seen those too. The difference is I thought why cut a hole in the soft pot? Why not put the grow bag on top of the netpot. Roots will grow right down and through and the fabric wicks anyway.

Pics. About 5.5 weeks I guess

Try it with 2 plants. Cut 1 and don't cut the other and see which works better. You still need to be able to wick water enough. The octopot even has holes in the bottom of the fabric pot.

Yes

I'm gonna set one up for sure. I want it to auto fill from a big rez. Easy enough either way. Heading towards only running less numbers but bigger plants.

Looking awesome SG How do they smell? Also how are you?

This cycle seems to be entering the Fattening Phase. Nice!

...and I really appreciate you sharing your thoughts. I look forward to time for
some more experiments.

Okay have to catch up wanted to say hi high. If you are doing undercurrent rez then AIS is the step I would take you just have to use solid pots on top with holes on bottom with air stones in solid pots and 2 inches of hydroten in each pot on top. I am gonna do that after I have the cash to buy all i need. On a good/bad note I found a guy with a tennis size tumor in his chest and they said maybe a year left for him. I gave him 6 oz of my oil told him take 1/4 tsp at a time very 4 hrs and I will make more for him. Lets hope it shrinks the dam tumor and saves his life. Of to hydro store will catch up later. we need more pots as 144 plants in veg used all of our 3 gall pots up and we need more plus more 1 gal and a few more 5 gal.

A toilet float can accomplish that with ease. I am setting up a auto water system my self. Hell I want to come see you but bearly made it to CO and back. I have a couple ideas for the big grow. The octagon I am putting the units like hyroots and that is how I will do it.

Good to see you DC. I am thinking I'm gonna build a auto fed octopot type system. I'm still in the R&D phase before I move ahead full boar. The 10gl smartpots work great. Combining them w automatic water and it will be on steroids! Lol

In the very least the oil should help w pain and discomfort. I personally believe in the regenerative effects of heavy cannabis ingestion. I also think it helps heal the spirit which helps heal the body.

144 in veg is a grip brother. Sounds like a ball!

Yeah jointed has the veg plants I bet we will have 30 plus males to toss. Doc I just got back from Colorado Friday. I wonder if we was there same time?

Word man! I will probably get the cheap valve thing from the hydro store but I did think of a toilet float! .

Gonna make a simple sip to try out first I think

Well... When I get 3k together for a shed let's talk. Maybe I could just have you build it with me. That would get you down this way for sure. Lol. Realistically it will be late in the year or early next for me.
