3 bags of dry vs. 7 messy and leaking jugs?



I am prolly goin' the dry route in the fall too.

7 jugs? That's nuts... like advanced nutrients nuts.
 
Here's an update on the ghetto garage grow.
She is getting heavy and starting to suffer. The leaves are shiny and clawing and starting to look ugly.
I think what I'm seeing is salt build up from the nutes. I flushed her yesterday[I know right]. After it drains a little better I'm going to flush her again before starting back up with the Maxibloom. One of the problems with a small SIP pot is the salts start to build up with nowhere to go. No problem with a quick growing plant, but this one is a slow maturing sativa.
The aptly named red haired Mexican.

Team gives no salts. no fucks reporting in with somewhere around 32 (two not pictures because they're shy) bottles in total.

The twelve usual suspects.

Team Red and Yellow are the holy roller team they both popped first feet on Easter, much to my surprise 3 days after being cut. The rest the tank will pop in the next two to four days.

My issue with that stuff is it has a 3 month nutrient charge and it's formulated to retain water with a polymer gel. I prefer to be in control of all my inputs so I want an entirely inert medium like promix hp which has plenty of perlite already in it so I need no amendments.. Likewise, moisture retention interferes with getting positive runoff in dtw.

Exactly.
The Walmart stuff just has peat, coco, perlite, dolomitic lime and myco.
I think the coco makes it a moisture potting mix. Nothing that a sack of perlite won't fix.

The 112L bale consists of:
  • Canadian sphagnum peat moss (60-75%)
  • Peat humus (except 2 cu ft comp.)
  • Compost (except 2 cu ft comp.)
  • Perlite
  • Gypsum
  • Limestone (for pH adjustment)
  • Organic fertilizer
  • Mycorrhizae - PTB297 Technology
  • Coir / coconut fibre (2 cu ft comp. only)
