crticalcontent Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 So the seeds landed today! Thanks mark and HSO!! Then after about ten minutes of working out how to open the thing I dropped them into a glass of water. My aim for this grow is to do something a little different than usual. So I am going to TRY and use biotabs in conjunction with ecothrive coco and a blumat dripper fed by a 15ltr Rez. Pics to come later this evening. Fingers crossed I don’t fuck it up! I’ve used the biotabs before in an emergency situation and can say they worked excellently. So please join me for a bit of fun during this whacky pot noodle Grow. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crticalcontent Posted May 1, 2018 Author Share Posted May 1, 2018 so peeps I couldn’t wait! Me being impatient, they’ve had a soak and sunk to the bottom. Now I’ve placed them in presoaked coco jiffy’s under optimal temperatures of my 25w t5 clone and seedling room. You may have noticed theirs only two. That’s just in case I have To go planB 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crticalcontent Posted May 2, 2018 Author Share Posted May 2, 2018 So I had a spare ten minutes this evening so I decided to crack on with my noodle experiment then pulled out a spare blumat dripper ceramic cone and prepped it by soaking filling it with water completely making sure that their was zero air trapped inside having screwed the cap on and double checking that their was no air inside the ceramic cone I left it to soak overnight that’s it for now folks, more to come in the next few days when rigging up the Rez and figuring where to place the cone itself? I’ve seen them put in the bottom with the top drip feed as normal. We shall figure it out as we go along. Until next time guys hopefully we’ll have some seeds popping their heads up soon 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyDisplayName2000 Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Looks like you put a lot of thought into it. I'm one of the late starters as won't be starting till the end of June/early July. I'm going to do the best of both worlds, a simple hydro, perhaps rock-wool, simple dripper maybe an airline in there to oxygenate. It will be a total loss system, although I will use the run off to feed house plants. Organic for the other two. What makes it more fun is that genetics play a role and you might get lucky and get some fantastic yielder. Amazing how much each plant from seed differs. Its spurred me on to get a few more USA genetics and have a multi-strain grow out. Ages since I done that and its always fun, sometimes a bit nerve racking as each plant comes in at a different time. Good luck mate and may the best plant win 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The not knowing, the endless possibilities contained in a little seed! Blows my mind need to lay off the oil man still high from this morning 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSO-Mark Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Well things are getting interesting in here Can't wait to see how this system comes together With all those holes will roots be confined to the container? Interesting tactic which should pay off. Going to be interesting to watch that's for sure Kind regards Mark.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crticalcontent Posted May 3, 2018 Author Share Posted May 3, 2018 Going for a kind of air pruning setup for the roots @HSO-Mark. Have used those little air pots before and had some decent root structure and quite impressive plants from them. Weather or not this will work will remain to be seen but for now, the hypothesis stands! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSO-Mark Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Ahh I get the concept now mate Will be interesting to see how this works and if you can pull it off Kind regards Mark.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crticalcontent Posted May 3, 2018 Author Share Posted May 3, 2018 I like a challenge 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crticalcontent Posted May 4, 2018 Author Share Posted May 4, 2018 So give or take another five minutes this morning with a coffee before the day begins and I’ve managed a little more faffing 8mm drip line attached to the pot from the inside blumat 10mm feed attachment to Rez I chose one with run off valve in case I do have to use coco nutrients. so I can pour of a cup and check ppm ec ph etc. Time for a coffee!! No oil today got the doctors he will end up sending me to the nut house 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
