she was thirsty
So…give me some advice for running 6 in a 5x5. Thinking of making my own grids, like you showed in a post. But cutting it on the top portion, making it wider. I know this Mother’s Milk will need support.

I’m watering coco in 3 gallon fabrics once a day now. Same size pots with soil maybe 3 days.
You may need a second support net I use I string trestle for that one
Dang. I was just checking the Octo site and noticed a 48 hour sale on single units.

So, what is the difference between standard, cupped, and strapped sleeves?
2 Likes
no clue, the strapped has 2 straps at the bottom to hold the net pot… and it cost more 
i assume the cupped is exactly that, instead of straps its sewn down to a “cup” for the net pot to stick though.

I did a looser pack this go round, I only compacted the center. Everything on the side is loose.
Maybe this will prevent the fungal outbreak from last run.
(which i damn near jumped on the bag to pack it down)

what size tent is that? I due to do the same in a few weeks. If I can ask, how many bags of coco did it take to fill them?
Best of luck with your run.

thank you for that.looks like my 3x3 will only take, 3. HA! I measured my closet, I should be able to fit the other octo in there. love it when it works out.

3x3 will take 4, tightly packed. You may need to place a peice of plywood down to elevate the octopots off the bottom of the tent so it can clear the poles.
At least thats what I had to do with the smaller tent.
