So far I’m pretty satisfied with how she’s growing. It was my first time using one of the seedling bags so I didn’t know what to expect. I believe these bags may be one of the least invasive ways to start and transplant autos without going directly in the pot. This would probably make more sense with a 5gallon over a 2+ gal Air Pot but I thought it would be smart to test it on a freebie.
The top soil has been drying out too quickly for a plant in this stage so I decided to mulch with a little bit of barley straw. This is my first time using an Air Pot and it seems to be working just fine. One thing about the pots that I’m fond of is that there is a gap between the bottom of the pot and where it’s base is. This allows air to circulate under the pot which helps prevent pooling and fungus gnat larvae infestations. So far there are a ton of roots coming out of the bottom so she could start to beef up and stretch very soon!
Its totally different to grow in airpots,,,,,Iike them. But sometimes i get mad with them too...especially if i dont keep them humid enough---- then its apain to water them... because iam not that patient
@Mrs_Larimar, sí, las air-pots para obtener un buen rendimiento tienen que estar húmedas. Yo rocío la maceta con agua antes del riego y consigo que la tierra se expanda en los agujeros también he subido el porcentaje de riego inicial en todas ellas... va muy bien.
@FreshCoastOrganics, Yes, some of my techniques with microorganisms are related to the teachings of Master Cho, for other preparations, I am inspired by organic practices of poor South American peasants, taught for a long time by organic activists, who work for health and to free them from the industry.
I start from this concept, that of the independence of the agro-industry. I grow marijuana with my own fertilizers, I try to understand by doing. All my experience of growing marijuana in the 21st century is in Grow Diaries, so I am a learner ... eternal learner.
@deFharo, I tried to make it as close to master cho’s methods as possible. Sounds like you had a similar mindset! I’m currently making a few types of fpj. One made from yard dandelions and the other from rehydrated organic kelp meal. They are almost finished fermenting so I will test them out sometime next week! That sounds awesome, I’d love to share some of my ideas and experiences!
@FreshCoastOrganics, Yes, I also use the same method of creating lactic acid bacteria that I then keep cold, I use it at the beginning of the culture as a pre-biotic and for the odors of my dog's urine. I also add it to some of my lacto and bio ferments.
I also use structured mountain water or mixed with rain, when I have. I have traveled many forests in my area collecting microorganisms, and with them, through anaerobic fermentations I am able to solubilize nutrients and chelate minerals. I have published several tips in this regard...I would like to share experiences 😏
@FreshCoastOrganics,Those lists get longer with time too.lol
so many I would love to run now , not to mention the ones spoken of as myths/legends like ak47 , cali sunrise ect.. We are so spoit now. lol
@Ganjagrandaddy, I’ve been dying to grow this strain along with another “special edition” auto lemon strain seedsman gave out during Black Friday. Hopefully I get around to the special edition strain soon!
Hey, just curious about your auto lemon how do you get it to go for so long and begin flowering at the 8 week point when it’s said that autos should be finishing up at about 8 or 9 weeks
