DRan88, I freakin like the grow spot, hope you keep us tuned how its goin.
Although not originally planed here, but Im liking late idea plan for a jumbo outdoor sog. I have to call it accidental creative planning ahead.
Theres plenty of symmetrical tie down points obviously, already there in a criss x cross fashion. Exactly the order I planned to transplant them to the bed. I simply need some threaded loops, twine or cotton rope netting.
I'm quite digging the thought of 4, maybe 5 plants sog^. Unless the males strongly outnumber and crap all over my grow show hehe, it wont be nearly as impressive when its all filled in. A potential set up for a disappointment, or luscious sugary sticky jumbo sog.
Id have way better control, thinking light and stealth. And also whoah that sure is purdy
Culling males already sucks, that could make it suck x2.
I guess you'll have to wait to see which direction I take.
And then thinking its true, you get nowhere unless without taking chances and some risk...or go big or go home, you have to bet the whole far for success...or I prefer you wont know until you know?
Ok, decision made.
Im pretty sure I could do 5 in each section comfortably, maybe Ill cut it to 4.
And hope theres decent space for these genetics, with potential to go 6 to 13 feet tall. Who bloody knows. I have no idea how tall they will shoot up. from experience using similar in the genepool they got 13 feet, after bud stretch. with the veg growth day count in half. Planted mid July, similar age seedlings.
Theyre showing lesser bushy than there counterparts. Once the roots are offered proper better growing conditions straight in the ground that may change. Those folks who always grow in pots, you owe it to yourself to test this theory.
The sea of purple and kush-hier side of growth genetics comes in branchier, lovely bushes (which I love, how could anyone not love the busy ones??? re OPs question in other thread ;)
The roots are just poking through the bottoms. It might be better to give them a touch more time, after I soak the hell out of them with bubbled worm shit tea and blackstrap.
I like how they look to this point. Appreciated growth rates etc. thus far. I was skeptical about using the current potting soil, I call it the bad kind of shit in a bag. But disaster never struck. subtle when you look, theres some deficiency evident, very slight on the one left behind in the closet.
The new soil base is better, and offers flexibility to feed like pigs controllably, and manage ph with plenty room for supplemental additives along the way. For starters go light and effective. Simply tumble castings and guano in there..maybe some kelp bits.
Less jaw stretchin and more work. I always say that. Then I end up firing up a dooby right before I fire up the cooker
