ok, a little update. pics taken from this past saturday.
things are rocking and rolling.
most plants are almost 9 weeks. hippy slayer and sunset shebert trics are cloudy, no amber yet.
potluck still has several weeks, and bpu is somewhere around week 6.
the trick to hand watering coco chunks is giving them a good soak. i use buckets, stick the plant in a bucket and fill it up 2 inches from the top layer of coco and let them soak for 15-30 minutes. basically i mimic a flood and drain system. only i do it all by hand. See the blue bucket in the bloom picture? it is a 3 gal bucket and that’s what i soak the plants in each day. give them a 15-30 minute soak, drain the extra from the pots and your done till tomorrow. dump your nute water from the buckets back into the rez. i mix up 30 gallons in a rubbermaid trash can and top it off with tap water each day after watering to the same mark on the container to keep the level correct. i run this 30 gal for two weeks.
you can also see in the pic with the little veg plants all together. i use a oil drain pan from my job, brand new when pilfered, of course.lol just a poor mans flood tray. thats what the veg plants get soaked in
