Can I pour the earth very hot in the blazing sun?
StDeaconstarted grow question 5y ago
It's brutally hot with us and the plant looks like it wants water? Can I water the soil on the edge of pot watering without hurting the plant?

Id recommend giving them some water if its that hot. They are wilting slightly due to the heat, So maybe a small fan on low speed if you can.

Clay pebbles at the bottomI'm thinking using this like maybe an half inch in 4 gallon fabric pot - for better airflow for roots & to prevent overwatering. They absorb the excess well and give off slowly.
Been doing this with my normal plants at home and it works well for them. Anyone with experience?Setup. Substrates

Will an air stone in reservoir of water under a fabric pot filled with soil contribute anything?Soil based grow. 3 gallon fabric pot placed in a 5 gallon bucket, with holes drilled out the bottom. The 5 gallon has a reservoir below it. Can I throw an air stone in the reservoir w/ h20 and pump more air to increase oxygen or will the soil not benefit because it’s a hydro growSetup. Substrates

Mr. Canucks on Youtube uses Gaia Green for this, but unfortunately this brand is not available in Europe. The only equivalent I can find is livingsoilsfertiliser.com.
