Official entry for the Best Tiny Pot. "Mephy" the Piggy Dank. Custom design/print, so she's Ultra Rare. Her grow volume is also a WHOPPING 220.9 ml / .05835 g / .0002209 m³ 😅 /// Planning to run her like a very small / fast bonsai. Going with a Mephisto "Freebie": Strawberry Nuggets x Forum Stomper. Good luck to everyone else! You all inspired me to jump in. ✌️🌱 Edit: 10/4/22 - Taproot came out 10/6/22 - Soil break

Pretty stoked where she decided to pop out. Gives me a little LST room. Gonna play it by ear with that constricted root space before I try anything drastic. 😅 Just keeping her humid and watered with 6.8ph + a tiny bit of root hormone. Probably start some organic nutes next weekend. Hope everyone else had an excellent contest growing week and the ladies are healthy! ✌️🌱

Fun week! Taking this grow a lot more serious than the first run, applying all the goodness I'm learning along the way. Had to pick up a new pH meter. Found out the one I was using is/was off by about .3% which was throwing me wildly out of pH range across my grows. Honestly surprised I didn't fry all these poor little ladies. Super pumped we caught that. Now things are exactly where you'd expect them to be...happy and healthy. I'm also running this mini fully organic as well. I'm making some FPJ from kitchen scraps now, probably start that tomorrow or the next day. Funny that the container is so small I'm watering with a syringe. 😅 Hope everyone had, and is still having an awesome week! ✌️🌱

So this was quite the week...I was looking over our set up, and making sure Grandma has everything she needs when she says "it seems to me that we need a vegetation cabinet." Turns out she had all the supplies too. Cracked me up...so I ended up building a nice little veg / drying cabinet. You'll see it in the second Meph run diary, was too busy to get some shots today. 😅 She doubled in size from last week, super happy with the progress. She's under a combo of flouro and LED in the new cabinet and LOVING it. Started ramping in nutrients slow and steady, keeping the c02 around 600-800ppm while I finish up the environmental control in the new cabinet. I realized that Mephy, might be a flight risk...so I made her a pen. 😂 ...also removed any confusion on her breed. Yeah, I nerded out a little. #prusagang #piggydankfarms Hope everyone had a great week, and all the competition ladies are stellar! Until next week...time to go play on the farm. ✌️🌱

Great week for Mephy...other than winter being on the doorstep. 😒 Keeping her to 4 main cobs, slow and steady till she's ready for some LST. I've been adding DO (dissolved oxygen) into the water in an attempt to keep the roots happy in this tight space. So far she's loving it. If you have an aquarium pump and some airstones you can add DO to your irrigation. Worth a try if you haven't. Anyway, hope everyone had a great tiny pot week! Back to work for me. ✌️🌱 Happy Halloween everyone! Be safe. 👻

Great week on the farm! Crazy nice weather in southern MI recently. Loving it. Introduced Mephy to some LST to regain some even canopy. Probably do some more over the week for some spread. I've been adding DO (dissolved oxygen) to my water/nutes with an old aquarium pump + airstone. Really keeping the roots happy in this tiny space. Overall I'm very happy with where she's heading. Nice healthy growth, and seems to be taking the LST like a champ. Hope everyone had a great week, and all the tiny pot ladies are healthy! Back to the farm. ✌️🌱

Rough week. Had a friend water for me while we were away. Didn't take my syringe watering seriously, fully saturated my little piggy and the roots are currently recovering from drowning... Is what it is, she'll recover. Already looking better than yesterday. Bud sites are still looking great, happy overall with the canopy still. Now to get her back to full health. Hope everyone had a smoother week than me, and all competition ladies are happy and healthy. Back to the farm for me. ✌️🌱
