Is that a venus fly trap you got mixed in there?
That would actually be a great companion plant to have in the garden.... esspecially if you have gnats or other pests buzzing around. Is it easy to care for?

Very easy to grow,ima start feeding them freeze dried meal worms,that I'll rehydrate at feeding time...
I think for the flying pest,sundews would work way better..
Ima try some.

Nice do you plant in the container or just grow it near your plants? Always see the carnivorous plants at the hydro shop and think they look cool and wanna grab one, but I always thought of them like carnival goldfish. Cool for a week then they die, but if you say theycgrow easy might get a few since they arent expensive

I was going to leave them in the lil pots they come in,dig a hole in the LOS pot,and set the plant right in it,pot and all.
^^^like them kind,I'd just set the whole thing in my LOS pot...
The sundews,I think would thrive in a soil grow,with the pest and all...more so,for the gnats.
The Venus flytrap,she will have to be had feeding,nothing big enough to really trigger it's spikes.

dont worry i know M4k isnt ignoring me. i just hope he isnt spreading himself too thin.
that is basically what brought me down, just taking on too much and spreading myself too thin. my business really took off and i kept taking on more and more work, which meant tons of travel and long hrs. on top of that due to being a tester for gage i was pushing my garden larger than i ever intended, i kept finding cuts i didnt want to lose so i was struggling to maintain mother plants on top of all that. eventually i just couldnt keep up and something had to give. i think i had somewhat of a nervous breakdown.
a tolerance break and a skiiing holiday later i was feeling good but i just couldnt bring myself to fire up my garden until now. im so glad i did.
as for the beaver yeah that was my last successful run, after that i ran a pack of cherry puff f2's which gave me all kinds of trouble. extremely finicky, slow growth, deformed plants and when i finally did hit flower i had herms everywhere. i dont know if it was a bad batch or if it was just a result of where my head was at at the time but that was it for me that was the nail in my coffin. growing had become a chore instead of something i enjoyed.
anyway im back now and i have completely changed things up. im now running a fairly automated hydro system. its only a 4 site system so no more testing but at least this way i can fit some growing into my busy schedule with minimal stress.
i built this new system which im fairly proud of its a hybrid undercurrent/drip feed system using 5gal buckets
that was the day i first put it all together so theres nothing in it yet but it curently has 4 little seedlings in it doing very well, once they are big enough i will take cuts, then switch the system to flower to sex them. then i will remove the mothers and fill all 4 sites with female clones. its a bit of a pain running regs in a system like this but i checked out the fem market and there isnt much on offer so regs it is

That's a nice looking system. I find individual, unconnected buckets give flexibilty a connected system can;t, especially when removing out and replacing males.anyway im back now and i have completely changed things up. im now running a fairly automated hydro system. its only a 4 site system so no more testing but at least this way i can fit some growing into my busy schedule with minimal stress.

i agree. i used to mainly grow in coco for the flexibility it provided, however where im at in life at the moment, the simplicity of changing water once a week is the only thing that makes a grow even possible. i currently work an average of 14-16 hrs 5 days a week, its very draining. i need minimal work load in my garden.
that said if this grow goes well i will be doubling the tent space and either increasing the size of this system or going back to coco in flood and drain tables. whichever way i go it will be automated. but i really want to be able to crack whole packs again. it just feels wrong not popping all those little gems.

Love watching your grows,always very nice.
The 315lec is still rocking,i really enjoyed the run I did,ver be back in the flower room,in the summer.

Thats why those types of systems are best for clones or fem seeds. I would never run reg seeds in my recirculating system. Cant wait to run my system again. Gonna add another pot to it so it can be two plants

Getting cuts to you isn't going to work is it?... If you HAVE to go fems... Delicious seeds. Anything with the Critical+ male seems to get great reviews, and I had some of their Critical Sensi Star and it was great for the monster yield my mate got from them. Your plan should work just fine though. But clone off the moms and then flower them, raising fresh moms instead. You will have a much larger pull much faster, and if you keep a few clones per mother the next pass of cuts will be plenty more than you need. Fatest way to a good pull I say.dont worry i know M4k isnt ignoring me. i just hope he isnt spreading himself too thin.

Critical Super Silver Haze is a champion. I got a freebie of it growing right now the buds are gigantic and smell like fruit punch haze.
