I'm actually pretty new to this. Only been growing since summer 2017. It's that this forum is so informative, like a tsunami of information.
I didn't know anything before '17. Got my medical scrip in '15 and my mind was totally blown when I walked into a dispensary the first time. Spent about $500mo on weed the next two years then asked my cousin if I could use his old garden cause he got a new greenhouse. Had my first harvest in Oct '17 and never had to buy it again. I give people weed everywhere I go and a lot of times they even trade me. I trade weed with someone in front of the smoke or hydro shop at least once a month. It's really cool.
I love bansai and want to try to make a long living mother. Those look the perfect plants and perfect stage to lay out the roots to shallow soil and slow the growth. I think they'd make nice mothers with those tight nodes.
I see, I've been growing about the same time, just small scale to you though, I'm getting pretty good at maximising my space now though. I must agree this site is very informative and every little grow I do I learn more, I love watching it grow.
I'd love to have a mother but I haven't got the space. When you say about slowing the growth by putting her in shallow soil, is that what happens? I've been thinking of using pots that are not to deep but that make up for what they lack in depth by being longer and wider, so a broader flatter pot/container holding as much soil as normal shaped pot still, it would just allow me to use my space better. Would the roots spread along horizontally instead of downwards ok and still utilize all the soil? More like a window sill box. 7/8inch deep soil, 17inch long, 10wide?
id love to grow eniugh to not buy but as it is i need another space, seperate veg n flower area then i could co e close, i smoke a hell of a lot though. Ye bansais cool, I wanna try it with a proper tree, maybe an oak, see what happens
I've got some daffodils today that haven't opened yet, out of curiosity I've taken one aside and put it in a glass of water under the lights with the weed and I put a tiny bit of explode in the water. Curious to see if it opens before the rest of the bunch.
Thanks
@chemistry I flattened them down a bit more, I gotta keep them low but i might have been a touch heavy handed so I'm putting them under 24hour for couple of days recovery. They look good though, definetely starting to drink more now
