Aww yea! Shit is really startin to pop off!! Finally all the hard work and relocating is starting to really progress.
Today I took a few more cuts of the moms, mainly the deathstar mom as she needed a few more days for growth. They were also fed and one of the LA moms was transplanted in a mix of ancient forest, frass, bio char, humic, azomite and into the same base of
botanicare moisture formula coco.
Tomorrow I will get the other LA transplanted as I was short a pot and may see how the 5 gallon roots is vs the smarties.
I also soaked rockwool cubes and root riots in seperate solutions to see how
sea green's
rootamentary compares against roots excel. They were soaked in ro in their appropriate solutions of 5.5 for the rockwool and 5.8 for the root riots in the correct amount of each nutrient. Then i added a couple drops of
superthrive. Im comparing each strain in the two different mediums.
The reason for the comparison is simply I have the nutrients and the curiousity. Also with these extra cuttings I'm starting my brother up and prefer to not change the mediums since we decided on an easy approach of super soil comprised with teas and water. So hence both the rr and riots.
His build is coming soon but essentially a cabinet or tent of some sort with a super sun 2 small hood with a 600w below that a tote of super soil with all the goodies I've been adding. Maybe a bottom layer with a bunch of hydroton.
In the room pics You'll see the tuff boxes which are going to have a custom bucket built holding two plants with a gravity fed system and hempy type holes for overflow. Kind of similar to danksworth "haterbucket" but with some different features and obviously alot of learning to do.
The table the moms are on is going to be used for a flood and drain or a dtw with 6 in rockwool cubes in a hydroton bed. Maybe a coco mat and possible aeration.
Anybody have suggestions for that dilemma? I've obviously researched it some but would love someone to chime in. Also any other questions feel free as I'm always down to answer them.
Whew, sorry for all that bullshit hah but super excited and rambling time to relax and light that pif. MWD
