Hey man read through your journals and they gave me some great ideas. I've tried to grow with 20+ plants and get about 4lbs but if I can do that with 3 or 4 plants I would way rather do that lol. Thinking its time to step up to the 10gal buckets instead of the 5gals and lessen the plant count to 5 or so next grow. Coco coir seems like something worthwhile as well.

As for a question I have 2...

How did you make those buckets?
&
You water more than one time a day? And did you top & FIM or just FIM?

I buy the 15gal pots, some with holes in the bottom and some without. I sit the pot with the holes inside the pot without. I drill one hole right at the bottom of that pot and connect a hose to it using some garden fittings. That hose is then run outside.

They get manually watered 3 times a day.

They get FIMmed one time only when they are about 1-2ft tall.


Thanks for your interest, I am just about to post up some more recent pics.

Cheers

Thanks bro, im glad it has been of interest to you and if it has helped you at all then thats even better. I have dropped many hints about my country of origin but I dont think ive actually said it before lol.

I will head back over and check out your progress. Basically any time during veg is a good time to trim and I end up trimming a few times as they grow.

Hahaha well I hope they thicken up a lot more than that. I will have to organis a better camera so I can take some better quality pics.

Can anyone reccomend a good camera for about $200-300? I know fuck all about cameras so I should try to learn more about them so I can take high quality photos.

Hey MBlaze.
Great growing mate.
Plants are looking monstrous as usual.

How often are you watering these girls at the moment, and how much are you giving them?

Thanks mate, they get watered 2-3 times a day depending on how dry the medium feels and they get 4-5 litres each time.


Thanks for stopping in.

I'm not passing by though.
I've just folded out the deck chair and cracked myself a tinny for this one. :lol:
Esky's right next to me.

I always enjoy seeing big arse pots, full of coco, with big arse plants. Results :hump:

With that sort of watering schedule your doing 'passive hydro'.
Have you thought about setting yourself up with a res', pump, timer, and watering rings?

Or do you like the hands on approach? :peace:

In that case cheers bro.

I like the hands on approach because I can decide when and if they need to be watered but I have been looking into making it a self watering setup and next time I think I will try it.

Thanks for your comments mate. Im always willing to listen to other peoples ideas on how to improve things.


Cheers
