Wow great thread. I was thinking of doing very similar to you blackcat. I was going to root in 50/50 perlite coco, pot into 1 gals and slowly decrease the perlite till finally potting in 100% coco in ten gals. Was hoping then to just water one or two times a day. I have only done just coco, but never have tried big trees. I know another grower that just did lots of perlite and a little peat reserculating drip that really worked well. This thread has me thinking. I like to hand water, but I definetly think an airier mix with more watering would be better.
i am thinking 50/50 mix of coco and chunky perlite will be good for watering every other day in 10 gal hempys. how does this sound:
week 1 - drop rooted clone into 50/50 mix in beer cups - veg room
week 2 - 1 gal same as above (not hempy) - veg room
week 3 - 2 gal same as above (not hempy) - veg room
week 4 - 3 gal same as above (not hempy) - veg room
week 5 - 5 gal same as above (not hempy) - veg room
week 6 - transplant into 10gal hempy buckets w/ rez in bottom - flower room
week 7 - still vegging in 10gal - flower room
week 8 - flip to 12/12 - flower room
result 2 lb trees right? hahah. is 50/50 coco / perlite light enough for every other day or every day watering in 10gal hempys? thx we are growing trees
I was saying more the more perlite I had the better results
I love it when people do all the research and decide to grow trees. Pick out nice 20 gal containers and put them on 40" centers. The brutes have a 20" dia and are 23" tall. So that leaves 20" from the edge of one bucket to the next. Yeah that's good planing to grow trees. Think before you plant. Even better yet think before you spend. JK
Letting patients in the room to relax and be one with the plants sounds nice. A nice way to learn how to kill plants. This is work or your room will look like someone did not know how to work.
