StarDawg, Grape Ape, DeathStar in Octo’s

Indoor Growing Growroom Diaries
1

Going to try this again! Hope to keep up with this grow. Helps me to look back and keep track of dates etc.

This cycle I am running 2 StarDawgs, 2 Grape Ape, and 2 DeathStar. All from clones. Second run with the StarDawg, first for the Grape Ape and DeathStar.

Need to say thanks again to @schmarmpit for graciously sending me the Grape Ape and DeathStar!!

Clones spent 13 days in the cloner, to long, and 10 days in cups. All were topped 7 days ago.

2 gallons into the rez and 1/2 gal using @Jetdro’s new turbo charging for the Octo’s!

This we probably be my last grow with 6 Octo’s at a time. Will drop to 4 per cycle next round. Really easy to overgrow the tent with 6.

The next week, 10 days are pretty slow. Once the roots hit the rez and wet zone, they take off.

Constructive criticism is always welcomed. That’s how we get better!!

IF you did it right, watered plant in its little cup first, then ONLY down the bottom holes, and you got then before total root wrap, it will NOT be 14 ddays but 6-7 and you will see them go .

Glad to have ya here! Love the Octo’s. I was able to head to our hunting cabin last deer season. Fill the rez and normally 5-7 days before refill.

That is my number one reason for wanting to try them. Deer camp! Go to West Virginia for the past 15 years and it always is a problem.

Following along! That Deathstar was all around me in 2010-2012. One of the best smokes I’ve ever had. Best of luck on your grow!

Hi @Jetdro, can you clarify when/how much you fill the octo rez when you first “Turbo” transplant a young plant?

I’ve read elsewhere that we should leave the rez empty or low until the transplant gets settled and then fill the rez to the top?

Sorry to butt in on your thread @Joker, I’ll be following along on your grow.

I am going to pull up a chair too. I am interested in Octo-Pots, ie. could it be a better alternative than rDWC.

Fill only to 1st mark for 1st 7-10 days, when they find the rez, go to middle mark.

Are you calling fabric pots on the brown auto waters Octo pots?
If so I bought stuff to try this and need to check all the threads about doing it.
I know at one time I tried to buy an “OCTO POT” but they didn’t make those any more.

I am very interested.
