Great job robbo mate, nice idea on using an airpot in the bucket. Glad your enjoying the grow so far. +rep for the diy and nice start!
Thanks Sang the airpot is working well,plenty of healthy white roots emerging below the void at the bottom of the airpot,some roots are growing outside the airpot but mostly on one side.That must be where the tap root headed.
Sorry i didnt answer earlier mate,i never got any notification.I will be updateing later.
 
Nice works and DIY methods with the bucket, Red. I'd love to see how your bubblebucket looks like. Sound interesting and great result so far. Shrek must be very happy right now :)
Thanks Mini,i will be updateing later i will get some pics up for you mate.
Shrek seems to be enjoying it though and if shes happy,im happy haha.Catch you later with some pics,sorry for late reply pal,if i got a notification i missed it.
 
BAM is 13 weeks,Shrek the Ogre is 24 days.
Im very pleased with growth from my bubble bucket,Shrek seems to be very happy in there.

Im upping the nutes to keep up with her needs and the ph hasnt done anything drastic yet.Im using iced bottles to keep res just below 70f,she doesnt like it above that.
Her ppm`s had gone down a bit and ph up to 6 this morning so i added more nutes to take ppm`s to 480 and it took ph to 5.8.She had looked slightly droopy before that but within an hour she had perked up.
Im pleased i made the 2 buckets,it makes it a lot easier to sort your res. out with a spare bucket to rest your plant in and res changes are just a quick switch over.
Im liking these buckets.

The BAM is getting flushed and i will chop her on friday i think.Her buds are pretty solid and not sticky,probably the biggest ive ever had which was expected as i improved my water and my lights.Im looking forward to chopping this baby,i havnt had a decent yield for ages but i think im back in business.

the 2 ltr ones are the same size as a 6 inch net pot but more heavy duty now all I need is the time to make them :pass:

Although its taken me nearly 5 years to get round to building my buckets,total actual building time was about half an hour but youre on funny shifts arent you?
I would advise you to make them buckets before them shrooms are ready,you could do youself a nasty injury even if the wifes supervising.haha.
