I think that's pretty unusual too Daniels. Nice looking plant though. Tell me about those pots you use. sns:leaf:
I tried it as an experiment. They are called Air Pots. I saw them from other growers. You can buy some different types. It point is when the tips of the roots hit the edges, they die. Then they branch out to keep doing it. Bigger root mass = happier plant. I made one for a 4 gal. pot for the next Diesel X to go into the Fridge. Two Queens Stuffed in a Fridge Completed
Though I may just make a new thread for it.
UB talks about it I think in this thread about it done with different pots.
Spin-Out for chemical root pruning

He just posted a link for them on one of his threads. Maybe Uncle Ben's gardening tweeks and pointers

Lumi posted a link for them too somewhere.
Those smart pots, the soft ones are kinda same principle.

I was saying in one of posts not long ago that I didn't like the footprint of my smart pots, but I have to say, you can't argue with the results they are giving me. They work, there is no doubt(so far). I am trying to keep an open mind. I looked for the spinout, and you can't find it anywhere. At least not in consumer sized packages. There is a place where you can buy pots in all sizes that are already treated with spinout here. http://horticulturespecialties.com/index.php?cPath=30

What material are your inner pots made out of, and how do you keep the sides from touching so there is air in between the two pot surfaces?

I also found a place that has some pots called root pots, that are cheaper and available in different dimensions than smart pots too. I might try these next time, http://tgchydro.com/hydroponics/products-page/hydroponics/pots-containers/pots-containers-roots-organics/root-pot/ just because the dimensions look like they are taller and not as fat. They probably aren't as good quality material as smart pots, but if I order them, I will let you know how they are.
I built some new soil yesterday. I'll put an update in my journal. great looking plants daniels. sns:leaf:

Here's the two Super Skunks I've had at 13/11 to see if they would flower fully. Looks like the #2 pheno will do it fine.
The #3 pheno, not so much.
Compared to the #1 which is like the #3. It isn't getting a good top yet like #1 has.
Tomorrow they will go to 12:30/11:30 to finish. They got a Jack's 20-20-20 at 1/2 tsp./2 quarts. I noticed a couple lower fan leaves are getting pale.
Today I got the 1 gal pot ready for up-canning the SS clone #2-B.
I also got 2 4" pots filled 2/3 with soil for a couple new seeds. I'll start some soon and a new thread for them. I know I'll start 2 Dark Star in a couple weeks to add to those 2.

I think the Tangerine Dream clone is starting to root. The leaves got pale so I think it's sucking that source of N. I'll dampen it off over the next couple days.

great update, glad your clone made it, nice to try and keep a lot of these different strains going.

Trying to stay perpetual so, I just put two beans into some soil. Dark Star x Purple Rain. Dark Star is Mostly Indica * Purple Kush x Mazar I-Sharif and Purple Rain is 75% Sativa 25% Indica. I'm hoping to get the thick crystals from the Hash Plant influence (PR) and some purple of the Durban Poison (PR) and the Purple Kush (DS). I may refer to it as Dark Rain, even though it's an f-1 not a strain.

Glad your clones are rooting man ! Mine are taking too but the top of plant sure does seem harder to root . The other clones I took are already yellowing and the clones from plant tops are taking longer. You going to throw yours in flower to determine sex?

No, I know the SS is a female, and the TD is from Barneys Farm, so a fem seed. They only do feminized seeds. The TD go to flowering in 5 days.

On TD #1, the Sativa pheno. So since I topped above the 3rd node, I had the lowest two tips in the shade under the top tips. So I used 4 thin metal rods to move the top branches to one side and the bottom ones to the other side.
One of the middle branches has a co-dominant stem.
This one has that branch from under the cotyledon trying to poke it's head out.

TD #2, the Indica pheno is doing good too. One of the branches isn't quite as tall as it's opposing branch.

I had planned to add these into the tent, but the Super Skunk #1, my 'Downs' Skunk isn't gonna be done in time. Now I think I'm gonna but the SS #3-A from the FrigiDare into the spot for one into the tent. Then put these 2 TD into there for 2 or 3 weeks until the SS #1 is done. By that time I think my Royal Kush from the tent will be harvested too.

"It's a kind of poison. It's kinda like taking arsenic with valium in it. You're going to feel good until it kills you. That's the truth."

Are you fucking serious? Does nobody call for proof or citations in these meetings or are representatives allowed to say whatever they wish?

It really sucks, we are born into slavery. We are not asked if we agree, or given the opportunity to not be part of our government, yet forced to live under it's rule for 18 years, then not left with many options other than find a place in the middle of F'ing no where and become a hermit...

We are working on the Recall of a bunch of them. But yep, they can lie all they want. He's a former FBI, so a jack ass.

All I want from life is to be a hermit.
