12 5 gallons in a 4x4?

We’re gonna see how many seedlings I get, it’s at eight so far and these are trade “5 gallon” pots so not quite really. I can easily fit nine, twelve wouldn’t be too hard. These plants are getting shaped and clipped however they need to be to fit and that’s maybe half the dirt I currently have in there (80 gallons or so, 2x15G and 2x25G). I’ve run as many as six large ish plants in 5G with no problems before, I don’t really leave a single square inch of canopy open if I can.

Nice, gives me some hope that I could actually f2 some stuff I have… I usually run 3 gals and 2 of those with a 5 week veg typically fills my tent up. How long of a veg do you think you’d have to do to keep everything nice and neat?

Pretty short, probably about a month counted from when they root into the 3” square, so the clock is just started

My experience with Cindy and Apollos in hybrids is okay at this point, no experience with Space Queen but this Big Don I have going to see what Romulan is like says she’s a stretchy lanky plant for sure, that thing is taking over my tent and flowering fast as fuck boi. The plan is repot into the 5G in a few weeks, give them a topdress and a week or two then flip and pray

Day 63 and I took all the fans off the three ladies finishing- G-Unit, Chem D x BOO, and BB x T-1000. They’re getting 70 days then pushed out of the flowering tent. Big Don is fucking insane, it’s only 3-4 weeks into flower max and has entire-ass top buds! So fast! Also huge! Taking over 1/3 of a 4x4 after staking, and I think she’ll fill it in. I need to get my 2x4 running to put her in, but the basement is periodically flooding. So I keep holding off, even though I set up that one on a pallet.
After a deep clean and sanitize reset in 4x4 I’ll move the eight surviving Vortex seedlings (hopefully, one or two are iffy but making it so far). Repotted, they’ll root out for a few weeks max and then get flipped.

Awesome news, other than basement flooding 
Sounds like Big Don is living up to it’s name 
Looking forward to watching the Vortex run.

Are those real rapid rooters or all natural plugs or are they the weird sponge ones from china. Asking cause I just got some weird ones from china on Amazon said natural but…

Yea I don’t think those are the real deal, but I’m also not convinced that the knockoffs are much different, as long as it’s spongy and airy it should still be a good medium. People say the brand name RR don’t decompose anymore with the newer binder recipe so I wouldn’t stress it too much

I used a cold chisel and hammer drill to punch A Hole through the floor and install a sump. 100x better than the f-ing floods!

Those look like what floraflex is selling now, went to reup on rapids or root riots and they no longer have either at both of my local shops, I bought these floraflex things but I’m unsure if they’ll be any faster than my macro plugs (grodan/rockwool) that I’ve been using for 15 years and have like 1000 of still

No these are nock offs not the real deal

Mail day at the factory, these orders are a split between me and another OG who needed some forwarding over the pond. I’m after Purps/Bubba and he’s after Triangle. Dino and Caleb hooked it right on up! Dino’s Daytime Lingerie gets you a shirt, a Triangle S1 pack, and another unreleased pack, probably the Chopper Sic Balls here (lol as always with RBJF). Moonijuana is another freebie that I almost ordered, so that’s real cool. Caleb saw the Purps hunt I had in mind somehow and I got PZ F2s that I’ll try out before I pop the F1s and some PCK itself, nice nice nice:

Got a new bowl in from David James Glass on Instagram, I like his dichro double blown stuff a lot but I had to scoop this big fat spoon with some surface work that leaves me singing “Under The Sea” from the Little Mermaid:

Or “I’d like to be under the sea, in an octopus’s garden in the shade”, but yeah, picturing you singing Little Mermaid is much better, haha.
