No need for a air stone in Octopots
I’ve never used one in 6 years using them

Quick 30-minute doughs. Went grandma/nonna style mixed with Detroit I guess. Quick made tomato sauce, seasoned ricotta dollops, black olives, and a cheese mix of mozzarella, sharp cheddar, Parmesan, and a black truffle pecorino wedge. Topped with some oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes. Now, I won’t even eat any tonight. Haha One more drink, a joint, and bedtime.
Edit: Definitely time for bed. Forgot the pictures. Haha

What are you planning on using? Already bought stuff for it?

I have most of the hardware already. Plan is to use a 35 gallon Brute garbage can with a sump pump sitting at the bottom. PVC connection up and out of the res and into the tent. Once in the tent and in the tray a convertor from the 3/4 PVC to the 17mm rigid tubbing. The 17mm tubing will be in a loop with netafim whips with .3 gph PC drippers and drip stakes. Planning on having 2 stake per plant for redundancy. I also have an air bleed valve that will go in the PVC run at some point (prolly the highest point of the run).

Sounds good. I’d measure, cut, and lay out the tubing in the sun for a while to get it all straight and flat. Only other thing would be a disc filter before your air bleed valve. Also, adding these https://www.lowes.com/pd/Homewerks-Worldwide-3-4-in-x-3-4-in-x-3-4-in-dia-x-2-1-2-in-L-Union-PVC-Fitting/50160563 in a few spots is super helpful. I like being able to just unscrew one and pop the pump out of the res for a cleaning.

I also didn’t like the slower drippers. I use 2 gph woodpecker jr netafims. I believe that’s the name. Shorter shots. Pump is on less and all too. Saves some electricity.

The Salmon River OG is killer, but these two are extremely Bubba and will just get eaten up by other plants canopy wise. I have a full pack from a fresh batch directly from Professor P still though in the fridge. So, I’ll save a run for some Puck and Salmon River OG. Next up I’m doing mostly A5 x Mango Haze thanks to @Slammedsonoma420 and a pack from @stanknugzz77, because I flaked on him as a tester though. So, unfortunately it’ll be a bit. Have to squeeze some @santero in there too. Haha

Is the jack’s blossom booster what you are using, the 10-30-20 ?

No boosters. Just the 5-12-26, 15-0-0, and some Epsom.

Yard has practically no flowers. The 21-7-7 got the pH better, greened them up, and got them growing well. But, drastically cut down on amount of flowers. I have some 20-20-20 on the way and then I’ll mess around with some P boost and all of that next year. I wanted to show some cool flowers, but I only have these kind of crappy ones, a few are fine, right now:
Gardenia flowers are already browning, so didn’t even take shots of any of those. They’re a real bitch of a plant. Haha
