Hi, can someone please tell me, will my bubblelicious plants (about 5-6months old) fill out more?? The are very healthy and starting to bud well for indoor plants not under any false light, but the stems still seem very stalky and not that thick, although they do stand on their own. Was wondering if it would bud into a full thick group or just stay quite separated. Any help would be much appreciated.

Glad to see someone else is using the hempy bucket method. I'm currently on my 3rd grow using this method. My "buckets" are old plastic 1 gallon coffee containers. I've posted a couple pics of the girl I have going right now. She's almost ready - trichs are 30% amber 60% cloudy and 10% clear. Hopefully by this weekend.

Not trying to be critical, they look delicious, but why such a small amount of buds and such a small plant. Is it the type of plant? I get 7 ft tall plants with 10-15 OZs of bud off each. Are they really blue or did you photoshop them?

if you didn't see he use's 1gal coffee containers as pots..an as such you cannot expect such a small medium to host pounds....if you wanted you could do it this way...peace az like i said this system is user specfic..do not get get caught up with what other people do..take the method an run with it...

wow...those plants are 6 months old???? Look at mine that's about 2 months old. It's a clone in hempy bucket. It's about 12" tall and loaded with buds. The pics were from this morning.

Nice looking plant, AZ. That looks like DWC?

 

[Azgrow]

negative those plants were grown hempy...just a 5gal bogged in an 18gal...with hempy the skys the limit....peace az

 

[hearmenow]

What's that on the right side near the bottom? Is that a drainage hole?

 

[Azgrow]

yep..overflow from that is massive....peace az

 

[hearmenow]

Looking real nice. Personally, I keep my girls short for stealth and ease. Also, if something goes wrong with a plant, I still have others to fall back on. G/L.

 

[Azgrow]

that pic is from a friends previos grow he already finsihed...the harvest was 8 oz dry...i am a sog grower so you'll notice the pics with the heri or the pics that lumberjacksians posts are all pics of plants right now in the grow room...peace az

 

[hearmenow]

8 oz dry....That is impressive.

 

[Azgrow]

ya i'll have to ask him which strain he ran in that...peace az

 

[pinksensa]

Well here is my go at Hempy.....I had six well rooted clones and I took 4 of the very best with the longest roots.....I had to buy a lot of peach tea at sonic lol but eh you know $7 for all 4 of them is a helluva lot cheaper than buying for planter pots to put them in...and what I love most is the small amount of space they take up even when I move them to the pink box!!!!! Ill keep you posted!!

 

[Azgrow]

lovin it..great job....cant wait to see what ya do with em in that box...peace az

oohhh thank you so much!!! I am so excited about doing this...i just love doing things different...since the overflow exist isnt it impossible to overwater??Im think Ill do just every 2 days and let it run off...i did do a weak water of grow big so did you say once a week after that of nutes???

 

[Azgrow]

i personally do heavy feeding once a week...you can try it this way or start with 2 small feedings a week untill you get used to the system an strain nute requirments...just make sure they dont dry out..i know lj has to water everyday to other day depending on heat an how much the plants soak up....an no you wont over water you'll just make a mess...peace az

pink please don't ever pay so much for styrofoam cups... haha go to a dollar store and buy a bunch of trash cans/bucket/whatever looks like it'll work for a buck each


please

 

[Azgrow]

she wants to bog those cups on a big tub...while i'll agree its pricey..but what 7 bucks when she is gonna have a big fat harvest...peace az

lol well all i drink is iced tea and water anyways so it gave me a gallon+ of tea...and plus Im so instant gratification....I wanted to do it TODAY and it had to be just so....lol I think its a girl thing....believe me my eyes will be open for hempy containers from now on everywhere!!! ha ha

EDIT: AZ your right and if I hadnt been doing this I would have spent 7 per plastic pot and I would to have to buy another $18 dollar of fox farm ocean forest to get them all planted in big containers....so I got the 1.5 bag of perlite cuz I look dumb in high heels trying to carry anything bigger than that even if I will use it...so $6 for perlite $7 for cups=$13 for soil it woulda been $36
