pot noodle* pot(*there will be no noodles)

[buddy13]

Finally, either fashionably late or sneakily waiting to steal everyone else's ideas before I start? 

Actually I've been waiting for space in a flower groom but equally happy to see what else has been going on with everyone else's pots

Plan changed/ evolved many times till now but I think I'm settled on;

organic, no-till(meaning worms and wood louse) and some extra little helpers like water retaining crystals. This has been mixed and has been sitting/cooking for a couple of weeks.

My soil is a mix of Irish moss peat, e.w.c, rice hulls, kelp meal, alfalfa meal, Epsom salts, trim from last run and some water retaining crystals 

Also I plan to "pot up/on" from the standard size to the king size(any objectors please speak now or forever hold your )

This extra little bit of soil will have more water retaining crystals, e.w.c and a 1/4 bio tab for when the plant is a little more able to take more food.

credit to @crticalcontent for the biotab idea

Will also be using/copying @leapsure skemor idea of the tights and collar to help hold it all in and with watering

Already thought of the need to hang my pot and have noticed this has already been done too.

All going well I'm going to veg for 1-2 weeks then pot up and flick within a few days of that.

All this^^^ for a flippin pot noodle

Some pics...

Beans were soaked in warm water for a couple of hours to bring them up to temp from being in the fridge then popped into pre-soaked jiffy thingy's.

Some of the bits and mods...

some holes

Hopefully back in a few days with some baby bubbas

I'm still waiting on my beans mate, so I've totally been lurking through everyone else's ideas to try and devise the mastermind plan

with hindsight I feel I should have waited for some signs of life before posting but......fingers crossed then.

[buddy13]

may have jinxed myself with the early posting

5th day still no show

99% of beans I have popped with this same method usually pop up in 2-4 days so still a little hope yet but.....

I already have had a failed one a few weeks back, sown along with some others with the same method all of which popped fine and are off.

looks like I'm out of beans and out of luck

winner of quickest fail?

[crticalcontent]

Fingers crossed bro, I’ve just had a seed pop after 10days 

[leapsure skemor]

Flattered by your design choice and impressed at your attention to detail with the ptfe white collar! Did you just happen to have a spool of it lying around? Anyway I hope they show soon and flourish so I can take all your credit  

 

Good luck Buddy!

[buddy13]

@leapsure skemorI also have a blue one but seems its all irrelevant now still no show

[leapsure skemor]

Ah no, have you considered a poke about to see if it's doing its thing too deep? I'm sure it won't be the end of the road for you either way.. 

[buddy13]

still no show so had a poke about; mushy beans no sign of any shoot/s

was fun while it lasted...but that's me out

luck to the rest of ya
