Hi all... It's ya favorite topic drop in random CR and I got 2 quick ones for u... firstly what is your advice In regards to the control or support of this huge amount of new growth my girl is producing quite rapidly on the daily... and it must be cause of the rain but noticed on 2 sides of my geopot about an inch up from the bottom and the two sides and lower sections are really soggy like i been squeezing the corners to try get as much out but the fkn bag has gone almost fluro green or radioactive green in those areas almost like algae in the run off when I squeeze bag. Anyway apart from that she appears to be loving life but yeah your advice on how to deal with her rapid growth and also my new found geopot drainage issue... its a 20gal pot running a 50% coco peat, 30% coco noir & 20% perlite and i have elevated on a timber base sorta like a bed base with slats

She's just going into flowering stretch. Perfectly normal for an outdoor plant at this time of year & nothing at all to worry about. You've got her in a HUGE pot for her size, so she's probably just enjoying the root-space to expand into. Even if she triples in size, that pot will be fine.

The green stuff on the outside of the pot? Probably just algae enjoying the nutrients & sunlight. Again, nothing to worry about. If it bothers you, just hose it off. No harm done.

Don't go squeezing the fabric pot. The medium you've got her in loves being saturated (as I've discovered this season with my first time in Coco). It MAY seem like you've got too much water, but it's perfectly fine.

Keep going the way you are & RDWHAHB.

let it ride. A day will dry it out a bit so don’t worry about the excess water unless it rains again. As your running an inert media you’ll need to feed it to get some nutrients available to the plant which will double up in pulling air into the media and flushing stagnant water out.
