Coco in less than 3 gal. containers

Jack Dupp said:

Today starts week 6 of my 4 x4 tent grow with a 6oow HPS. Running half-gallon 5"x5" rigid pots with 100% coco and hydrotron on bottom. I hand water every day, and am doing a side by side with canna and Botanicare, running 4 strains SOG.

The plants look way healthier with watering every day than every 2-3 days with 3 gal pots.

Heres a link to my grow journal about it. https://www.thcfarmer.com/community/threads/critical-jack-blackwater-chocolope-and-silvertip.55833/

Can't wait for those results. I'm using canna and was going to try PBP next round.. You still alternating with organics or are you just running side by side lines?

I run both at recommended rates in a feed, feed, water (molasses) schedule. I don't think it is good to water with plain water in coco, so I add either fish and seaweed(early flower) or 1 tsp. molasses in 1 gal of water. The coco is amended with worm castings and they were hit with an AACT in week 2. Those are the only organics I run.

So far my heavy feeder is my critical jack. Canna can't keep her happy and she started lower leaf yellowing at around week 4. Now I am getting necrotic lower leaves starting week 6.
PBP side is just now showing lower leaf yellowing.
The Blackwater really looks nice for the Canna side.
