Grow Mediums My Hempy Buckets.

Looks very cool! Plants look great and scrog looks great too.
Well I really got bored of checking out everyone else's hempy grows so I went and bought some things to try my own. Got some perlite, vermiculite, 3 gal office trash cans, new tent and some new seeds coming. Next month hopefully will be a new light. Been thinking maybe a used one would be a better deal for me, but still kinda hard to find quality used equipment around my house. So I'll be in the market for a switchable 600 watter soon. As far as seeds, i have some autos and photos coming. I'm excited to try this so I'm gonna go drill holes in trash cans, Later!

It was a seed. After all said and done I guess I'm not that disappointed by it. It just foxtailed like crazy. Smoke is nice and pulled about 5 oz's of her. She was a big bitch. xD My critical jack is still going!!! 14 weeks flowering. Takin her down this weekend.

Questions for you AutoToker
How often did you water your Hempy's?
How much of the water did you drain out of the bucket 10%?
Did you have to pH your water/nutrients?
If you did pH what was your pH at?
As I understand, you used 2 inches of hydroton on the bottom?
Sorry about all the questions

No problem at all with the questions, I want people to use this easy method.
1. I feed every Sunday and flush every Friday with pH'd RO water. Always at 5.8 pH.
2. The drainage differs week by week, just depends on how thirsty they are. You'll get a feel of your buckets after a while.
3. Yes, I always pH my notes to 5.8. And always use a root enhancer. Dutch master root zone is my favorite.
4. 2 inches of hydro ton at the bottom 2 inches is the resivour. It provides better drainage than straight perlite.
Watch my movies. I explain all this in them. Enjoy!

Awesome stuff dude. Very nice. :clap:
Just curious..I see how your exhaust runs out your window. Is a square of glass cut out or what?
And do you have it covered somehow on the outside so that you can't see it from outside?
Thanks man.

No cut out of glass or anything, I just have one of those windows that opens from left to right, then I have one of those sideways window fans in the window. I hook the exhaust tubes directly to the fan in the window to exhaust. From the outside all you can see is a fan in the window. Safety first!!! xD
Week 5 Flower update
Ohhhh another week gone!
Time for a week 5 flower update!!! All the plants are coming along nicely except this one Cheese that is giving me issues. Dosed it with CAL-MAG last week, and haven't noticed anything better yet. Everything else is doing wonderful. I don't think I'll ever grow any other way. Hempy all day! :dance:
