soil grow in a bucket. Stopped taking water in the first week of flower. Fans turning yellow, soil is damp. Any advice on getting her to feed again? I placed an additional layer of gravel in the bucket and probed the root ball with a skewer to get some air in.

Bigger bucket with some new soil around it or put it in the ground.
Did you check the rootzone for bugs? Sometimes even checking the runoff will reveal bugs from the soil

No bugs up or down. Thanks, ground may be the best option.

Top half of the original pot, sends the roots deeper, then i pull it up later. Just my way.

thats what i figured,i did that to my squash plants this year,damn squash vine boer worm has been kicking my ass for last 3 years,this worked not only to keep the wasp from stinging the base at soil level,but the stalks were like vines you could swing on when i took cups off,i just cut the cup away worked great

thats ideal ph,comfrey bro,i swear by it,has just about every thing the plant needs and can be a stand alone feed,if you mix the stinging nettle in with it,steroids hahaha,you have to ferment them seperate though,once fermented you can put them together,honestly though i dont think putting in the soil will help you,the roots are alread balled up in the bucket,only feeders would expand and that might hurt ya come yield,it take couple weeks to get over the stress,probally wrong just my opinion,ive grown them in 5 gal homer buckets and just about same height,only issue i had was what you have already done,putting the foil around the buckets,that sun fry there ass,if its as hot as it been here maybe light watering 3 times a day to keep um cool

Yeah, that layer of carpet around the bucket makes a big difference with heat, especially when wet.

That’s actually a very similar concept to a new product I’m developing right now called The Growing Pot. It allows you to transplant without disturbing the root ball. Should have more info available here shortly. The concept of going from smaller pot to larger one is one I’ve incorperated into it as well. Very cool.

Like stated above, you need to ethier uppot again or cover your white pot or your roots will be damaged by the UV rays. I would suggest just transferring ( do it with OG the next week and the plant won’t even bitch if your good at transporting , if that’s a 5 gal bucket go 7 gal so you don’t even disturb the soil)to a nice food grade black one and since your putting all this love why not, it’s a special flower in my books

No lol I wouldn’t do that. I actually created it 10 years ago and never persued it until recently. I’ve been doing the same thing for quite a while now and this is just to make it easier. But it’s nice to see others doing it as well. I’ve got a 3d printed prototype and I’m just waiting for tooling costs to proceed.

without checking all replies i say just prune the rootball well and replant.
use a fert that encourages root growth but is ok for flower done.
as long as u have time to harvest so what if it's 2 weeks late.
this also allows u to increase your learning curve for next time. not a bad thing at all.

First, thanks for the ideas. I gave a friend one plant a month ago. He said it grew two feet taller in the first week, which would put it over my fence. No bueno. The plant i had out of the bucket yesterday for a couple hours has improved. No yellow leaves today so I will try this one tonight.

Just an aside, heres a male i threw on the mulch pile a couple weeks ago. Had to chop it up when i noticed it kept growing and the root ball had swelled 25-50%. Now the damn tops seem to be rooting!

I cut mine lengthwise and then tape it back together, in order to make transplant quicker/safer. I like that idea too.

So i’m thinking its a straight up nitrogen deficiency and overwatering from all the rain. Pulling them from the buckets for a couple hours at night dried the root ball enough that i fed them some 11-35-24 today. Going away for a week is probably the best thing i can do.
