Mandala Satori in Hempy Buckets

[GrowinGreen]

damn 91 degrees- that is hot!

the runts should be fine! Just remember to water them a couple times a day so the roots don't dry out. Actually I would water them all a couple times a day- you don't need much. Once the roots hit the res it's smooth sailing.

I had a runt as well and it turned out to be a beautiful lady- I hope the same for yours.

What are you using to catch the runoff? Are you getting a feel for watering them?

Keep it up!

:rofl: 91 is darn cool round these parts these days, pardner . The ambient temp at noon was 87. It's going to get worse . I'm very pleased at the temp the single 150 hps is running.

Glad you checked in GG, I have some watering questions . They will be several days tapping into the res,so stick with daily or 2x daily watering?

When you water, I assume you water the rockwool and make sure it's wet?

What do you think about the yellowing?

I watered slowly and just let the little runoff ummm... run off . I soaked the excess up with a rag. I don't have room for runoff trays.

Thanks, all!

I think my irish self would die where you are :laugh:

And yeah- 2x a day will be fine... I usually just water in kind of a spiral- right on the rockwool and then kind of around the outside so the roots will reach out more. The yellow is probably just from being transplanted- I'm pretty sure mine did the same thing. I can't really see it from the pics? They look good though and will recover from the shock in a few days.

I bet you could find some runoff trays that would work. Might are just a little bigger than the bottom of the bucket, I just empty it every week or when needed. It makes it a lot easier, but the rag will work for now... I bet you find something else soon.

MOJO

Missed the first part of this grow, but everything up until now seems awesome especially with the help you have been getting. I do agree with GG though that 91 is a lil hot, but o well right, as long as they look good?!. Well hope you don't mind but i will be sitting in on this one till the end, can't wait you're going to love the hempy style!

Thanks . It's hitting 94 these days. It may get a little worse here and there but I think it's 94 all the way, now!

Thanks, doc! And thanks for checking in! I'm going to post pics every Thursday .

Howdy Art! Can I ask you to check something for me, please? I was checking my bigger Satori this morning and noticed that the lower fan leaves are very indica shaped. The further up the plant you look, the skinnier the fan leaves are, as in a sativa. Do yours do that? I will take a pic to show you. It's obvious. Hope it's normal.

 

[ArtVandolay]

Here they are at 21 days.



The 2 larger ones are 4 - 4.5 inches high, the runts are still runts but coming along.

They've been getting seedling nutes so far - time to up the nutes,I think...

What do you think?

Hey, 420Benny - all the leaves look similar so far?

 

[thedonofchronic]

nice lil ones you got there :hubba:
im wont say anything about the nutes i dont do hydro
dont want to lead you the wrong way. hey even if you were
soil i wouldnt now what the hay i was talkin bout
great buckets though man ill be watchin :watchplant:

 

[GrowinGreen]

Art- looking good man! They all look healthy, even the runts. I bet you could up the nutes on the larger ones- just don't go overboard like I did.

And I assume the roots are about in the reservoir too- than it gets really exciting. I looked back at my journal and it took about 26 days for them to hit the bottom. Thanks for the update

Thanks for stopping by, GG. I wondered about that - how do you tell when the roots hit the bottom? I suppose you start seeing some more dramatic growth when they do .

While I'm at it, GG ...., some watering questions. I suppose the res should never be allowed to go dry? Is it ok to just water every day?

 

[thedonofchronic]

im sure that, plus can you take out the net pot?
and just check with the eyes? :confused2: beats me
im a soil boy

No net pot, TDoC, just a bucket with a hole in it and filled with hydroton .

 

[thedonofchronic]

GGs have net pots though dont they
wth im confused. i actually knew they
dont have net pots, but i thought ggs had
em... that confused me

Now I'm confused

 

[thedonofchronic]

haha no ill clear this up.
allll my fault.
i double checked and ggs doesnt have em
so i really dont know what i was thinking.
i knew hempy buckets dont have net pots.
lol sorry for all the wasted space in your journal man
god i only smoked once today too..

 

[ArtVandolay]

LOL Your posts are far from wasted space, DoC . Thanks for looking in .

 

[docfishwrinkle]

hey art plants look good. yeah youll def know when they hit the res they just take off. if you have any height restrictions prepare yourself. i did coco buckets which are somewhat similar & no joke i had 2" of growth per day when they hit res.
