Sorry fellas I had lost my phone at work! I will let you know when my next day off is on a weekend. Jig is one of my favorite smoking bros! I like when someone can load bowl after bowl all day long! Cant wait to blaze soon!!! Maybe we can get Chaka do a few skillets.

Yeah, I took a break from shooters because it was wearing on my nerves... been playing slower paced games these days like assissins creed and PC games that don't even require a joystic, just a couple buttons on the keyboard.

Kinda messed up today and left the lids off jars while I took a nap. They were just supposed to be off for a minute or two. Everything seems to be mighty crispy. Hope it wets back up with the jar closed.

Closet is looking closer to how it's going to be. I think I'm going to do plants on the lower level so the soil ones will be near the same height. And I think I'll do a horizontal light with a big bowl/ stadium/ half circle type screen for the plants. It felt good giving everything a good cleaning.

The clones are looking good. Roots are growing a little bit. Slowly but surely for the first few days I suppose. Would love for them to start blowing up. And I need to sew my pots... will do that today, so I can get the soil in them... and get the plants in the soil. Man how exciting.

Makes me laugh that a bunch of people around are finally thinking of going from soil to hydro now that I go the other way. Not sure I'll ever give it up completely though because of the whole vacations thing. Still don't have anyone close and reliable to check on things when I'm gone, so soil will have to be used when I'm not planning any trips.

Happy Monday!!!

I really don't like this stage of growing. The whole 'keep the clones alive' stage. It's gut wrenching... ok, maybe not that dramatic, maybe just annoying. I want to start things off get a big light in there and get things moving!!!! Just have to wait for the plants lol.

The power strip I've been using for 4 years just blew up (aka stopped working). I'm amazed it worked that long.

All sounds good jig :-) a little leaf in the jar for a few hrs should get the moisture content back up! bongsmilie I learned that lil trick the the D-miester.

I agree. I feel like the watering process is very fragile at this point too... I actually used to do better with seeds. I think part of what I don't like about it is the rockwool. When I've made my own clones in the past in rapid rooters it has always seemed to make everything easier. My experience with rockwool has always been to just water the rockwool the first couple days until the roots are starting to spread out, then start watering the medium. Otherwise I've had the soil get soggy and the plants hate it. I stopped using party cups for my clones for that very reason.

Alright soil/ coco peeps. I'm going to make my own pots. I'm wondering about dimensions. For a 5 gallon pot in the area I have I can do:

8" x 8" x 17" tall (tall skinny)

8" x 24" x 6" (very wide but short)

Or anywhere in the middle. Any thoughts?

I water every third day, so long weekends are okay. Anything else I call in the kabouters!

I'm gonna have to remember that one just in case. Good look man.

Yea, I'm with you on the keeping alive bit. Only difference is from seed in my case. As far as the pots go; we all know I'm a novice, but thinking from a logical standpoint I'd say the wide short one as it has more volume for root growth. I suppose it would also depend on how large you want to let em get as well. In a fabric pot, in an ideal world, the roots would be airpruned once they reach the walls of the pot and growth of other roots would take place. Idk ultimately. hah.

Heh me and my buddy go rounds talking about the pros and cons of soil vs. hydro. I've never done soil and him vice versa. I guess you just go with what you know.

I'm excited that you're doing soil! You go and make all the hydro ---> soil mistakes and write about it so I can avoid them :) Whatcha got goin?
