Octopot Grow System

[Papalag]

I never use organic’s in my Octopots
Afraid of all the slime and bad juju

[justdrew]

Exactly…the SLIME!!! Root choking slime. I can picture, and even worse, smell it.

Greetings Paps,

This may be awkwardly phrased, but aren’t OctoPots still pricey even with the discount? No agenda, honest question.

A bit but well worth it

Autoflowers last week - 30ish days since sowing seeds:

9 days later:

Nothing changed position between pics. The humidifier on the left is a good point of reference for size. It sits atop an upside-down 5 gallon bucket.

[Papalag]

Bro they look absolutely beautiful
You always have a healthy looking garden

Great job

The rapid growth in just 9 days is amazing

[BarefootAndBlazed]

Thanks. This is my first crop after shutting down for three months due to broad mites. I’m only growing from seed now since apparently I’m incapable of adhering to strict quarantine protocols . And because I have a shitload of seeds!!!

[Papalag]

Same here I tried to keep moms always had issues hell There are way to too many seeds in the vault to keep things around

If it’s that special make seeds

Just a heads up, rolling down your bag sides too much could make the plants drown, the height of the bag is purposeful in giving the plant oxygen.

While it might not be an issue now, it could effect the grow later on.

keep a eye on this too, your getting light leaks into your res, thats why there’s algae.

Same, I roll down 4 to 5 inches, I don’t have a 4 to 5 inch soil bag.

This is my height

What size is that tent bro? I just got my first Octopot and I’m not sure how many to put in my 4X4. Especially if they get out of hand as you say. Thanks…

I put four 6 gallon Octopots in my 4 x 4s

[Syn]

[Papalag]
