Transplant time -
I up potted the solo cups into some 1 gallon root pouches and a 2 gallon. I will probably up pot 2 of those remaining 1 gallon grows once they set up more. I am looking to see if a transition transplant is worth it …..
Cup to 1 gallon , 1 gallon to 3 or 5 gallon final size. I always run solo to final but figured I would test out whether there are any benefits to up pot more than once.
Only thing ( for me ) about a bigger transplant before final pot is - I can introduce a new heavier myco layer within larger container that the bigger 1 gallon plug could be root dusted and set on dense layer. Myco is directly at root level and base. Probably a good idea - we will see.

Very nice !
Good to know you are just letting the plant feed on the medium and no bottle bullshit.
The fabric pots n soil cost more than the plants foodVery nice !

Actually making them is ridiculously easy.
First , they are literally available at walmart. In sealed packs - prewashed.
However…. Always good to open up on end and run water thru each to flush them. I tend to peel off most if the attached fat ( save it for later ).
I put a pot of water with onion half / 4-5 garlic cloves - medium boil - add tripas …. Cook for about 30-40 minutes. Check doneness by sticking fork into one , if it goes in easily then they are ready for next step. Try not to overcook
.Remove from water - pat them dry - set aside.
Heat a large pan / wok on medium high . Add Manteca / Crisco or Bacon fat for best results in frying. Add some of that pulled fat to oil to render it down ( if you like ) .
Once oil is ready - cut down tripa to 2 inch pieces - add to oil. Turn them frequently ( watch them !!! )
Be careful as you can burn them or make them too chewy. Light browning is fine.
Serve on Street taco sized tortillas with salsa / cilantro / chopped onions. Or Roll up a Bomb Ass Burrito with some Fried Beans ….
Dinner and a Dank Joint …. OLE’

Update :
Since the up potting , they grew out and i decided to flip a couple of them. They are already showing sex and preflower. I will do some final LST to finalize their shape.
Instead of my typical “ topdressing “ of layered FFOF
soil - i am running Recipe 420 dry fertilizer . Right now they are still on the “ veg “ - ( all purpose ) 6-8-4.
After stretching, i will move to Ultra Bloom.
1 Tablespoon per 2 gallon container… scratched in and tap water. EASY PEASY.
I tend to feed around every week and half. If i loaded 2 tablespoons then it would push a re-feed to about every 2 weeks.

These are the other 2 up potted plants - i plan to veg them a bit more before flipping.
Also have germination solo cups going.
The bigger one is a PEE PLANT S1 seed from a pollination of Urinal Cake plant. Pisstacular smoke

Father’s Day Find - local swap meet
$10 bucks
Found another BONG. This one was pretty dirty when i got but managed to clean it up pretty well. I still need to get into the nooks and crannies. I used a simple salt and iso alcohol mix to cut the major gunk out.
Its a very good and cheap way to clean glass.
Probably need some pipe cleaners to get in that bowl area.
Its got a mushroom shaped percolator and hits hard. I like the wide base and weight. It didn’t have a bowl but i happened to have a spare one .
Happy fathers day to me

Update - Solo cups
Today was topdress day of sorts - EWC
Thought i would give them a treat for being good girls.
Next watering will be a kelp dilute or foliar.

Flowering girls - Blackbird light.
Buds are forming on the more recent plants - Chill bomb is also flowering well and smells great. I am hoping that branch i pollinated with African Chill Male pollen will throw a few seeds at end.

Update : Container grows
Well decided they needed more room - removed them from the QB96 tent and put under the QB 304 / COB rig in the 3x3.
The QB304 have no reds built-into boards ( 3500k )
I wanted to eliminate unnecessary stretch from red spectrum and am now giving a slight bump in blue.
I up potted 3 more of the solo cups ( Pee S1 ) and another plants . The two remaining solos will be 1 gallon grows. The layered Container mix is pushing along with minimal effort ( 2-3 tablespoons of dry fertilizer ) and tap water.
EASY PEASY .

Update :
This is how easy a simple container grow operates.
I layer a myco heavy mid section to the layered soil mix. Bottom 1/3 is all Fox Farm ocean forest with #3 coarse perlite or pumice.
Then a light spray hydration, followed by a layer of myco / kelp meal / ewc. Then i add Recipe 420 potting mix with additional perlite to fill remaining container volume. Transplantable solo cup seedling is added .
I water enough for transplant not the container fully.
This will alone power things for weeks on tap water. The myco layer once rehydrated and now deeper in container will be blooming ready for roots to run through it. Kelp meal will provide growth hormones and other goodies .
Now … feeding is stupid simple. After about 5 weeks or so.
2 to 3 tablespoons of Recipe 420 General 6-8-4 scratched into topsoil. This will recharge what was used by plant / introduce new myco and last for approximately 2 weeks before re-application.
My containers are 2 gallon as i run perpetuals and really dont need larger 5 gallon. But , methods are the same and will allow more soil to be used before any dry fertilizer is needed. I do not PH water. Tap from the sink.

Bonus : Look at fabric containers- NO SALT BUILDUP.
This alone should steer you away from multibottle nutes. No more measuring shit / No more guessing amounts of this and that. No more cartoon labeled bullshit.
Let me know what you guys think.

97% of growers appreciate your confidence and simple "how-to" journal. Not everyone has the time or ambition to tackle multiple bottles or concentrates. Thank you for sharing. I will be sure to take the time as you have to share my own simple amendments and water approach to help the next grower.Update :
