Sounds good. every forum i read that used more then 40% perlite seemed to have more of a lavish growth [for lack of better terms] I'm interested in why ? maybe the aeration process?

yep you got it, can b watered and fed more often and air gets to roots each time,plant doesnt have to b making big roots, did well for that bubblegum i just chopped and i am now convinced to get rid of my bigger pots

ha no much brain to pick, best fire up my volcano ha. i rekon 2.5 to 3 litre pots, can water every day later in growth , i water, drain then use kitchen towel to draw out extra moisture.got room for aroun 8 or ten pots so should harvest 1 per week.

Thats a space saver to only have 3 liter pots. 1 bag of fox farm will be goin along way with 60% perlite..

I love that idea , it's cost effective and yet your not compromising the integrity. In fact you're initiating a better environment for the roots. AA+ Roots can only mean AA+ green ..

def smells sweet like gum mm. no idea of thc level but my bud is always better than and stronger than bought, think red cfls, enviros, make plants produce more resin.blue makes for a more compact plant, to much heat makes buds light and airy

you did amazing things within 10 days.... what you have? a magic wand?

i need some pointers man.... but is it the strain that did it for you.. or are you able to grow like that with whatever seeds you get? you get a green thumbs up

i noticed what you said about blue and red bulbs... what ratio of red to blue do you use during vegging and blooming?

i didn't think perlite could be that helpful...i'm about to consider getting that also....is it me...or this growing shit is addictive... i started off with the idea of buying a bulb and growing one plant... now i ask questions every chance i get just so i can adjust my setup...ha...

it's a hobby and in some way a way of life. i also agree as me and del have talked and decided that perlite is so effective do to the aeration process and that in itself make a huge difference.

BTW let me correct myself ; I asked the questions and del has been nothing but like a true friend in the process to me much appreciated and hopefully once i get some beans i can try and send you some.:leaf:

Nice results.. I've got eight bubblegums that are about the same age, but a little behind yours due to some beginner mistakes. But, they look strong now! Nice to hear bout those 2-3oz yields in such a short time.. I am OUT!! (of weed, that is..)

:weed: hello m8, not sure im the 1 to be giving pointers. i keep it simple now, small pots, plenty of perlite and no heavy doses of fert. i dont veg n e more, i use 2 x 200 watt blue enviros and 1 red, i dont ph or really bother flushing, i really think choice of strain is a big part and i often bend the main stem at least once to let the other buds catch up.
