You're gonna have to explain this passive wick method to me, buddy.
Oh sure.....super simple toast. All u do is take a 5gal bucket for example and drill a hole in the lid, fill it w water drop a wick (rope) to the bottom of the bucket set ur plant on top of the bucket w the wick runnin up thru into ur pot that has the plant in it and coil the wick around the inside of the pot. as the dirt dries it pulls water thru the wick into the pot. Its essentially just like an oil lamp. Go head n google it u will see what i mean. Jorge Cervantes covers it in his book aswell

These GG4, GSC & BC I've abused them, overheated them, overfed the coco ones, bad ventilation, mites early in grow and dosed with abamectin.

There's light leaks, for a while there was no timer so I switched by hand badly

and still can't get the fuckers to hermie, it's getting so desperate I'm thinking of sending cuttings to Manc

I also have this solution:

View attachment 617429

A 2l bottle should keep the soil saturated for a week, sticking it in a fresh watered pot. So the soil should be moist for atleast 10 days and I'm good with that.
I like my idea better. that dont seem like its gonna last long enough and it will also keep ur shit drenched for the time that it actually does work imo
