Question: on avg. How long does it take for them to become adjusted to the method? Like should it be a quick notice or does it take a couple days?

I think I've seen it awhile back, but......

Then the other night, checking all the Farms threads, the Kratky Method was mentioned......

Down the 🕳 I went.....

So my odds are slim according to what I've read up on......

But, on the other hand, I watched a time lapsed video, and they went on to say what they would have done differently.....very informative..... a seed in a pot ......sounds right......

Coffee all day, yes, everyday......while burnin one.....

I appreciate it....

I have fun when I can.....

This was a spur of the moment jump......everything on hand, even my own doubts.....

I do need to know though......I'm not a cat, but......

Thank you for the encouragement......

It is the satisfaction in knowing the outcome, good or bad.........

My first year of growing should have made me cry........great looking plants, but I fucked up with wpm......and nutes......and .......

I'm all for learning new styles or ways and types of growing " habits " .....

Stem splitting/ drilling.......Does not kill your plants.....

Herms happen.....I'll get blasted for this, but, if it's late flower or only a set or two of nans, pluck um and go.....always inspect and if there's more than a few early in flower, consider chopping....

Train your plants.....grab them by the horns, and be gentle......

Kind of yes........

Except I won't be using Styrofoam or the floating material....

Before I forget....thank you .....for the hook up and your time...!!

I was thinking for the first time, this might work....I was looking for a better container, but size constraints and limitations considered....

Yesterday I found a site that showed them using the floating method.....

I just climbed out of the hole after watching a time lapse of a kratky grow from something like a seed in a pot.....

Then, sorry Farm, I quickly, quickly jumped to trollit^ and the one thread I checked, no one has seen one finished to the end.....

Ha......you said you have lots of casualties under your belt........my no seed popping streak was quite high......it lasted a few weeks.......

So I will attempt this style grow.....start to finish......whether the plant lasts till harvest or 5 days, I'll have it journaled here.....

I think I need a visual to understand lol. I have never grew hydroponics but my friend did. He told me something about not being able to maintain ph in the reservoir so he hand watered instead. This was like 20 years ago but want to ask him .

So. How are they doing????? So curious on this one. have a wonderful day @Bilber ! This is defo one of the most interesting I've watched...there is no bad even if it doesn't work I got to see someone attempt something I've never seen before. That's a win in my book.

Before lights out last night, they were drooping a lil.......

And now.....

View attachment 2096673

I think I'll add a touch more feed in the bigger Kratky....the water line is probably a few splashes shy of touching any roots...

But.....and I'm new to Kratky.......the clay pebbles/ hydroton absorb water/nutes, which in turn, stays moist.......

Maybe the roots are getting the moisture they need, more than I'm thinking......

Kiss......I'll leave them be for the time.....keep an eye on them for a few days, then we'll see if the feed level is accurate or even acceptable.....

Experiments take time......can someone find the remote and fast forward for a little bit....? We can rewind it after we check on the progress, or lack there of......

Thank you for checking.....

P.s. seeds should be sent......unless she didn't stop at the post office......I'll find out tonight.....and the others....it'll be a couple I'm assuming.....snails pace.....
