@methodanon, I’m usually only away for 50 hrs max for work so its not bad. This said when vacation rolls around could be upto 2 weeks. But thats not for within the next 4 months.
For buckets I have 1/2/3/5 gal to choose from but just to help control size will be going 1-2 max
Along with all the little things I’ve been doing in the grow I wanted to try Air Layering. I had originally place 4 on different plants and 1 didn’t make it as I felt it was weak. The ones that did continue to grow were of the Spencer’s Gift, Shellcatcher, Island Crippy. Of the 3 that made it Spencer’s Gift root system what easily with the most growth
Lastly the Island Crippy which looked the best of upper growth but root development was lacking but I place this on fault on me as I wasn’t watering often as I wanted to test if it could still grow on limited moisture.
I’ve clipped the 3 plants off there donar plants and will now push them like normal clones to see how they respond for growth on roots and foliar.
Just a quick report on the Air Layered cuttings I planted into the living soil I have. Theyre all doing very well no wilt like the first day a showing the start of new foliage
From here I have a Pineapple Express and a Grape Crinkle x Fire OG in some home made solo cups that I’ve drilled 1 hole in each of them to try my hand a Hempy bucket solo grow. Using Jacks 321 nutrients ph set to 6.0 about 180ppm. The seedling are really enjoying the Perilite home. Im buying a mechanical watering timer to run the mini pump so I can automate when and the frequency of my feedings in the future so make sure the girls never starve or dryout too much
I used a measuring cup to test the volume of the container and its approximately 600 so I filled the cup up with 500ml of water and marked the line on the inside of this cups, then refilled with Perilite to level.
