Quick question: what's the largest container you have used for curing? I'm asking b/c I'm thinking of curing my girls in large glass jars. I'm going to try to put each plant in it's own jar. I Was thinking 1 gallon, but I have no clue if that's too much or little, or if it's a recommended way of curing or has any drawbacks.

A 1 gallon Mason jar will hold about 6 to 8 oz. depending on how you pack it.
I keep it a little loose and use a Boveda B62 or B65 pack.

I've used 5gal buckets in the past :lol: did fine, can't remember exactly but holds something over a lb.


Edit: didn't really sit around long enough for a proper cure, but with bovita packs it should do alright... Can't go wrong with jars though.

I had the same problem with my first grow....I was feeding too strong. I now put Canna Coco 2ml A + 2mlB + 1 ml CalMag per large coke bottle. After the flowering stretch around day 20, I cut back to 1.5 ml A + 1.5 ml B + 0.5 ml CalMag

I only put my PK @ 1ml per large coke bottle in addition to the 1.5ml A +1.5ml B + 1ml CalMag at the start of week 5 and feed it 3 days in a row.(fill bottles only to the funnel shape at the top this makes room for shaking every thing up)

I used to have a ppm meter but never replaced it after it fell in water. My water ppm is around 120 and I was feeding around 500ppm.
800 seems high but maybe your strain is different.

They seem to be doing ok at 800, I think part of it is just how large/extensive veg they got to make a big ass root system, and this is the first run in the coco, so I have been having to seriously up my Cal mg to keep them happy
