Moved the plants to 3gal softies.
The sub had a soak and air before repotting earlier the week so they've not fed yet since.
Will be giving straight water this weekend then a feed later in the week.
1L per pot of the Canna feed (per guide).
Excellent growth so far. Another week or two and we will be stumping at 4th or 5th.
In all they've had 2.5L of water this week. Keeping in mind that the pots are large. I'm using more water than needed but all this is factored in.
The softies (smart pots) are on two metal poles to allow for air to pass under the pot and to keep it off the colder floor. With the softie, off the ground, the sub gets drier quicker.
I never allow to dry out. Just to be at the damp enough to feel a mit of moisture left in the sub, the rewater.
Was thinking to fill 19L fabric pots to about 3/4 (roughly 15L)
Last grow were in 11L solids. the wider pot brings the plant close to the floor as height is limited in grow room.
Question: considering these are AUTOS.. is there any point in using larger pots?
11 L are fine for autos 15 L are better. If you go with the 11 L drill holes in the sides to air prune the roots. That will help out the plants with the smaller pots.๐
@OrganicNature420, Thanks for the feedback!
I grow 80% for edibles (tinctures, oils butters etc) since I stopped smoking altogether. Still keep the Mighty by my side.
Have had several successful seasons with BF's LSD.
One year I neglected them and they still delivered!!
Later this year I'll need to grow a few CBD heavy strains but I'll see what this first 2021 harvest delivers
Keep well :)
@ZoobZoob_farmZ, Cheers. LSD are a very hardy strain and always deliver. Early, just right or late.. there's usually more than enough THC in this strain to do the job. Get it just right aaaaand sleep.
Keep well.
Sub arrived so have split the 50L bag into 3 softies. Potted into larger pots earlier than I would normally just want to get settled and in the grow room asap. Wife needs the seedling room for her hydro non-weed grow.
Grow room running a 400w dual spectrum HPS at 3' away from plants. Heat in day at 23-25, night 18-22. Humidity 60-70.
Exhaust is set on the 150m3/h fan until the warmer weather comes. Then will swap over to the 300m3/h ex fan and use the 150m3/h in the room. Have small 6" fan on low power moving the air around for now.
The only problem with the smaller plant in the larger pot is water management. I've dealt with this before by spiraling out. All's well. All's happy.
