Transplant time -

I up potted the solo cups into some 1 gallon root pouches and a 2 gallon. I will probably up pot 2 of those remaining 1 gallon grows once they set up more. I am looking to see if a transition transplant is worth it …..

Cup to 1 gallon , 1 gallon to 3 or 5 gallon final size. I always run solo to final but figured I would test out whether there are any benefits to up pot more than once.

Only thing ( for me ) about a bigger transplant before final pot is - I can introduce a new heavier myco layer within larger container that the bigger 1 gallon plug could be root dusted and set on dense layer. Myco is directly at root level and base. Probably a good idea - we will see.

Actually making them is ridiculously easy.

First , they are literally available at walmart. In sealed packs - prewashed.

However…. Always good to open up on end and run water thru each to flush them. I tend to peel off most if the attached fat ( save it for later ).

I put a pot of water with onion half / 4-5 garlic cloves - medium boil - add tripas …. Cook for about 30-40 minutes. Check doneness by sticking fork into one , if it goes in easily then they are ready for next step. Try not to overcook

.Remove from water - pat them dry - set aside.
Heat a large pan / wok on medium high . Add Manteca / Crisco or Bacon fat for best results in frying. Add some of that pulled fat to oil to render it down ( if you like ) .

Once oil is ready - cut down tripa to 2 inch pieces - add to oil. Turn them frequently ( watch them !!! )
Be careful as you can burn them or make them too chewy. Light browning is fine.

Serve on Street taco sized tortillas with salsa / cilantro / chopped onions. Or Roll up a Bomb Ass Burrito with some Fried Beans ….

Dinner and a Dank Joint …. OLE’ :bigjoint:

Update :

Since the up potting , they grew out and i decided to flip a couple of them. They are already showing sex and preflower. I will do some final LST to finalize their shape.

Instead of my typical “ topdressing “ of layered FFOF
soil - i am running Recipe 420 dry fertilizer . Right now they are still on the “ veg “ - ( all purpose ) 6-8-4.

After stretching, i will move to Ultra Bloom.

1 Tablespoon per 2 gallon container… scratched in and tap water. EASY PEASY. :bigjoint:

I tend to feed around every week and half. If i loaded 2 tablespoons then it would push a re-feed to about every 2 weeks.

Father’s Day Find - local swap meet

$10 bucks

Found another BONG. This one was pretty dirty when i got but managed to clean it up pretty well. I still need to get into the nooks and crannies. I used a simple salt and iso alcohol mix to cut the major gunk out.

Its a very good and cheap way to clean glass.

Probably need some pipe cleaners to get in that bowl area.

Its got a mushroom shaped percolator and hits hard. I like the wide base and weight. It didn’t have a bowl but i happened to have a spare one .

Happy fathers day to me bongsmilie
