Size of final pot/bag
Faegrows
started grow question 5y ago
Is a 3 gallon pot/ bag enough as final pot for your plant? I’m 3 week in veg stage now. First time grower, indoor. Very simplistic setup is used.

OK for an auto, but if it is a photoperiod plant, 5 gallons minimum would be my suggestion. The bigger the pot, the bigger the roots, the bigger the plant! Hope this helps,........ Organoman.

Is this an RO system?
I found this is my basement of our new house and I'm wondering if this is an RO filtration system and if its worth trying to reconnect it as it appears to be bypassed. It does have an electric water softener which I heard you shouldn't use but I'm curious what it is in any case.

Set Up Tent
How should I set up my carbon filter, exhaust fan & air ducts? I’m in limited space right now but want to make sure I get good air circulation still. I set it up the wrong way the last time I had it up but it was already up so I just left it. Also, my fans. Where should they go ?

Moving plants
It's winter here so have an indoor grow going. I'm wondering though, we're having beautiful days, is it worth dragging the girls outside through the day? Is it worth the effort? Anyone else muck around that much?

Any Suggestions for next time?
Got any good suggestions for next grow based on my most recent diary? We are at day 67 today. What can be improved for next grow? Any good strains or seedbanks for fat buds? If I run autos, can I fit two in a 20 gal of topdress living soil?

Good magnifying lens/jewelers loop?
Could anyone recommend a good magnifying lens for smart phones? (jewelers loop or similar) I just bought one that slid over my smartphone but opened it to find it doesnt fit over the camera! Anybody know one that fits over a smartphone? Quite like the idea of taking pics/vids.

Should I repot to a pot with drainage?
I have been reading that drainage is very important. I am using a very large terracotta pot, which does not have drain holes. Would it be recommended to repot, drill holes in the bottom or should it be ok? I'm hoping that as the pot is very large it shuold not be an issue

Can you please tell me if the sides need to be covered with earth?
When I covered the soil in the beginning it wasn't like that, but after waterings the soil shrunk and now there is space between the pot fabric and the soil. Should I add more soil to avoid root problems? And also the water drains down there and quickly runs downhill 😞
