New Grower Sanguine's perpetual auto grow

Is that one sticking up the highest the top of the plant? If it is, try to gently pull it down slightly lower than the side branching,take your time it doesn't need to be done in one hit, slowly over a couple of days if your nervous about breaking it. i've found if i kill off the apical dominance early on, that's when i get the best results.
 
@Grim Reefer cheers bud, yea its filled out a fair bit in the last week
@Hazy yea mate thats the main stem, i ran out of cane to tie her down to, so just left her to grow up, i'll try putting an extension in and carefully bend her back over.
Thanks for keeping me right dude, may need some trimming of fan leaves too
 
As some of you know there's always a few times a year I have to away for a few days sometimes late notice for work, this always plays havoc with my growing, so it got me thinking about a drip system, that and the great results I see it producing in coco.

So here's what I've been up to today, putting together a home made drip system

im using a 25l bucket as a rez, a 700lph pondmate pump a manifold and some hosepipe as an adaptor between the two.

4mm black piping and a spare Wilma dripper, don't like this though, still trying to find a 4mm ended drip ring

haliea v30 airpump with 6 outlet. Need to block up the other outlets, or maybe have 6 airstones in the bucket!
This pump is definitely overkill for what I need @redrobbo you can say you told me so now

and heres the crappy little airstones I got in a 10 pack!
thanks very much to @Wile e Peyote and @redrobbo for helping me out with getting this together owe you both +rep, hope to give coco a run along side soil in the next week or so!

what do you guys say to pre charging the coco, yay or nay?
and/or a top and bottom layer of clay pebbles?
any input opinions or questions more than welcome
:pass:

Dude there's no such thing as to much air got the same pump mine is the 60 ltr a minute one that's overkill ha ha also put 2 airstones in your bucket then to block up the others just cut a couple of pieces of 4mm pipe and join them all together also pre charge your coco give it a good watering about 2 days before you put your seed in feed at about quarter strength upping it slightly every few waterings I use the pebbles in the bottom that way if you do overwater which is hard in coco the layer of pebbles give your roots a place to breath think that's all good luck dude
