Nice to see everything getting back on track for you.

I seen some cats on the growing with fishes podcast talk about DIY'ing shelving into tables, apparently it's a thing.

I got my floraflex all setup last night, didn't sit great on the uneven pots that are 1/3 done flowering. Next round will be better I'll make sure the pots are more even. Did the trick though. Impressed, no leaks.

were a bit tricky to get around the stalks too but w/e.

Thanks, it’s been a very hard and costly couple months .

I would order the 3” rings n make them work, your tops might even have the holes for it . a lot easier to deal with.

Might just do that. I don't think my tops have the holes but that's easy enough to remedy

I have to make another order anyways. They didn't have the clips I wanted and swapped out for the 2.0 clips, they don't hold onto my thin fabric bags well enough.

Going to grab some of their 6" pots and Coco bricks next order too and give them a go.

I got some of that coconut from Home Hardware but it needs to be rinsed heavy, smells like the Ocean.

What if you put a HD plant tag from the dollar store at the edge of the bag n put the 2.0 on that.
I don’t think the other ones will fit right on the matrix, they’re meant to snap into the hard tops
I will not clean another fabric pot ever !
I’m happy I switched to the Hercules pots.

I bought all the local stock of the size I needed , asked them to order more in weeks ago. Still not in .
Ordered fr Jon’s Plant Factory on Thursday, had them Monday.
Shipping quote was kinda high , but they’re big & heavy .
On Friday they contacted me, they over charged and refunded me 66% of it .
Nice packaging too.

Took the leap and mixed up some STS soln and applied it to 1 top on a NL#5 just after lights off 8 days ago and the top is now showing clusters of balls. Wow! Amazing stuff, and much simpler than CS.

I obviously don't want pollen drifting around in my grow room, so when do I cut off the branch and stick it H2O? Is there some consistent indicator that pollen is close to ripe, but the flowers haven't opened?

You'll see the sacks swell considerably before they open. It's kinda like watching buds swell at the end. Should be an obvious swell.

Thanx, Mac. I'm on day 8 of 12/12. How long should I expect this to take?

Another week or two. Watch them, once you've seen it, you'll know next time.

This is why you quarantine shit! I swear every time I get stuff back from this particular person it is fuzzy with PM. (At least I know)

I guess I'm working a six pack of DukeVA's Granny Skunk. I gave 6 beans to him to pop and sex and he decided to sell his house so they all got dropped off unannounced yesterday. There is no space for them yet!! These are all 18"+ First world cannabis problems...

I opted for CS to avoid dealing with powdered chemicals. Plus I don't want to be on the FBI watch list for ordering powdered nitrogen, lol.

More of a learning curve making and using CS for the 1st time but I'm sure I'll learn from any unforseen mistakes.

I tried the DIY CS process a couple of times and was only successful in generating empty pollen sacs.

Finally decided to bite the bullet and order the silver nitrate and thiosulfate. Followed the standard instructions and boom, 7 days later I have a shemale. All tallied, I'm in probably ~$35, including a cheap digital scales with 0.01 precision. Really simple and so far, 1 for 1.

The method I mentioned to you the other day involves STS, fyi.

Which set of instructions did you follow? Did you make up a stock A and B solution or just mix it a you use it?

When I was testing the FF , I did get an air lock, so air dumps to fix that.

I'm running one of those pots just to test the design. The plant is dong better than the one in my favorite pot, so it looks like it's time to buy more!
Do you use wicks?
That might also be a factor.

I really like them,
i don’t use wicking as I like to have waste water to wash out old junk.
