10/09 Got the bigger pots and everything ready for the repotting, got 9 mm wooden round bars to try out low stress training, I got different kinds of rope and straps to bind the branches down to make em grow outwards. I never did this before so I'm excited to see if it becomes the beauty that I have in mind. To see what materials are the easiest to use,.. I will use low stress training in combination with defoliation and I will top them, I've seen some crazy videos about crazy plants and believe me, I dream big. 11/09 REPOTTING TIME, I fill up the pot to about the h(e)ight where i want the old soil to meet the new soil, at this point I put a water bottle in the pot, and i fill it up, take the bottle out and that's that. I like to make preparations so I can do the repotting itsself fast, The ladies will have plenty of stress and I want to keep this to a minimum offcourse, so I have all pots ready to go, Because I did this I could see there was actually not plenty of soil, I had 50 liters of Canna soil, and 5x 10 liter air pots so it should be enough?I emptied out the pots, put clay pallets at the bottom and filled them up again Yeah so later on I would have been happy with how it was because I find that the soil and the wooden bars touch at some places, and I wouldn't want mold or to have to use products to fix something, don't fix it when you can prevent it, I have two options, replace them with metal bars or take a bit soil out, I did the last. I'm not proud to admit it but I made some dumb mistakes on this first try, I should have taken in considderation that I had allready drilled the holes for the wooden bars, and most of the plants didnt really lign up nicely, dumb rookie mistake, but a learning experience non the less. Also I would have prefered that I kept the soil in the pots the first time and would have finished on top with the clay pallets because they keep the top soil from drying out too fast so yeah. But I'm in it and comitted 12/09 The dream team will need some days to recover 13/09 Have to go away for a weekend, I wished I could take ém with me. Considdering to install a camera to connect to my smartphone just so I can keep an eye at all times, but lets not get ahead of myself. 14/09 Sunshine 15/09 & Lollypops 16/09 They look well recovered and damn, they have been busy. The end of week 3, it was a nice and quiet week, still nothing goofy, just letting nature run its course. No nutrients added. Not to much watering, It's humid without the humidifier so don't need to do much about that. Still spraying them untill they are soaking wet just before the light goes out, I will continue to do so during vegetation.

I am going to give the Air Pots a try, I'm going to start with a 1 liter pot. Should I go on to a 3 or a 10 liter pot after this?

I think that it totally depends on the final plant size you want, 3 l sounds very low, maybe if you planning a SOG. Personally i will use the 10 l instead of the 3 one, just because size. Hope it helps. Green Love 💚💚💚.

@Leeoto, I really don't deserve such an awesome words my friend 😅;), but thanks a bunch 😘!!. I'm just learning as you, but in a test & error style, low reading, many image looking and much much test LMAO, maybe i had to do it the other way (read first, images after). I'm just a bit imaginative sometimes and try to mind some cool things sometimes i get it 😱, many others not 😤. All the best again!, Green love 💚💚💚!!!.

@Cogollo_eu, I wanted to give low stress training a go, but I'm new to this, and I must admit I had some inspiration on a very very nice AK page ;) on how to handle things. To learn how to play chess, you have to play againt a better opponent. Same goes for growing, You look at what people with more experience do and you try to analise and copy and understand what, and why they do it. So now you know why I was stalking your page :p My goal for now is to get at the level where you are. You may considder yourself a rolemodel, it's official :p Have a nice day full of spliffs 😄, I'm always open for tips, suggestions, etc.
