First Octopot Grow!

A good rule of thumb is to add two weeks to breeders discription
Or start counting when flowers start to show not flip , to plan ahead

I use the original octos. I researched bottom feeding and I like the simplicity and design.

You can use pretty much any nutes in there, I used ghmb as more of a test several grows ago in soil and fabric pots and ended up really liking it, I figured it may work even better because of the reservoir and so far itā€™s been perfect. I use it from start to finish, nothing else.

She a long time grower? My only intention last year was to see if I could grow with a single nute and itā€™s worked out really well so farā€¦ Iā€™m not even sure why I chose this one.

I use well water which is about 7.5 out of the tap so the ghmb brings it down to upper sixes and I throw in a pinch of baking soda and keep it about 6.2.

She got the chop this morning. 10+ lbs hanging there, must be a bit of water all through it. :rofl: Split it in half to hang.

Made some Green Dragon with the banana sherbert flowers. I havenā€™t tried any straight yet, infused some sour patch kids with it, wife loved them, you canā€™t taste anything other than the candy.

18oz dried. Filled that 1lb grove bag over the top. Already tried a couple rips on the bong, very smooth and hits hard.

This one will get a nice cure, I still have Eight - 64oz mason jars from the banana sherbert grow.

Iā€™m sure it wonā€™t be more than a week before I have another one going :laughing: I really love the grow itself. Time to list the other smaller tent setup & octo, no need for 2 at this point.

She is one of the co-founders and main content creator for growweedeasy.com her tutorials are pretty good and easy to follow. I wouldā€™ve never tried a manifold until I saw/read her tutorial. She is a student of the art of growing great bud!
That is amazing hall 18oz off one plant inside!:exploding_head:. Well done sir!

Nice, thx for the info man. And yeah, that 1lb grove bag looks crazy holding it up, still canā€™t believe the amount of coin we used to drop yearly before I tried to start growing.

Tip with those Grove bags is not filling them all the way up before you seal them up. They need some room for the off gassing or whatever the correct term is. Congrats on the successful harvest!

Not sure how I have missed this for so long . Sweet work , that plant was excellent , well done .

Leave 25 percent space in bag with Groves . Knock most air out before sealing but not flat like , just most air out . If less than 75 percent full certainly knock air down to the buds inside . I like the 1/4 pounders , use them for even single ounces , small ones are a pain . Just take air out down to bud level then close em .

I donā€™t know how Folk grow ounce plants , would drive me crazy . That , above , is a plant

Well done sir

thx, did just that after splitting it up. Hard to resist burping the bag like mason jars.

Just planted a Wedding Cake auto from Bongo seeds.(alibongo seed site based in the UK). Iā€™ve easily got enough for 6months :laughing: but canā€™t resist growing and following a plant though itā€™s cycle.
