Impressive! Thats a pretty full bin for sure, and you’ll never need to buy soil when ya got that going! I did make sure to use HT (heat treated) pallets and not chemically preserved ones, thats important! They have a HT stamped on them. I like the heavy duty blue pallets that stone yards get, really easy to use their corner blocks for solid screw connections with the Timberloks… 7 of em will make a 3 bin composter, 12’ x 4’ or so… So cheap! Pallets can be found free most anywhere, and ya just need a $40 box of screws

I’m jealous lol I had my old bins worked for almost 20 yrs, then we moved here to Oklahoma 3 yrs ago…had to start allll over again, damn it!
I’ve got a good bit going and need more, but them days will some again!
The old one was about 20’x20’x4’ and this new one is only about 4’x12’x4’
Lol I’m hoping to get it back to the ‘walk in’ size of my last one

I got to say, the Cherry Brandy from @Sebring are growing like weeds!
They’re gone wild truly though lol big bushy things…lovin it!
germinated and potted same time as the ones beside them and they’re head and shoulders above all others in the batch of strains I dropped…
By September 8th, they were put into the first step, cups, now look at them lol

Yeah, today I’ll be trimming up the outside ladies, 10 days they been hanging, nice snap but no breaking when I bend the branches. Then it might be time for the autos, at least some, to be cut and de-seeded… Why is this part never fun? Trim jail and de-seeding jail…

I actually find trimming to be one of the most relaxing parts of the grow cuz. I’ve been trimming since I was 10, remember? lol I get into a 'machine mode/ and zip through em, listening to music and talking without even realizing I’m trimming (almost) and when I’m done…it’s like ‘where’s the rest to do’…?!
