Indoor Slaters Loft - The 2017 'Get some from your mother' tour

[Slater]

UP DATE
Day 14
So far this is the best start I have had (its only my 3rd, its not much really to compare too...), my last 2 grows went well but this time I'm seeing much more of an increased growth rate and a better looking plant at this stage. The Fast and Vast in racing ahead as expected (bottom right), the White Cheese has put on a turn of speed suddenly in the last 2 days (bottom left). And the Pineapple Express (top) does look a little like she's being left behind.
I would say that up grading to the air pots and using the @opticfoliar spray has had effect and increased the growth, giving the plants an over all fatter and stronger look to them.
All 3 got foliar spray and the 2 small pots got a full drench (about 10% run off) with a light mix of root stim. seaweed and a small dose of cal-mag. The 20lt pot was still heavy so didn't need watering (it did get a little, about 1ltr of what was left over of what the other 2 didn't drink). Will most probably get a full water end of tomorrow or the day after.

Thanks for reading

Are you going to pull those smaller pots out?

How are you watering you airpot?

I haven't started using mine yet and I'm thinking I may have to pour more water through it than felt.

Not sure how I missed your thread duderino but I found it now. Very cool thread mate. Really funny and interesting and lots of facts for us to soak up

One comment you made about different RH readings only a short distance apart in the tent - since I put clay pebbles in (love em) I've noticed if the hygrometer is anywhere near the pebbles the RH changes really quickly as they hold or let out moisture. If they are dry and the hygrometer is on the edge of the pot it reads 0 sometimes! When its actually around 50 in the tent. Just something to watch for and probably the ONE useful thing I can offer

Give me some of that lovely looking AK49!!!

Thanks dude, I quite enjoy doing these journals, It make so much more of an experiment that need improving every time you run it...also I would never remember half of this shit if I did not write it down.

Yes...the clay pebbles...that make so much sense...nail on the head there dude, that is exactly what is happening in my tent...

AK49...... she comes with a warning...I had to hold on to the ledge yesterday... it was the first time in a looooong time that I nearly fell off the floor.

How do you get your buds to stay like that during drying? The couple of test buds I've dried have kinda closed in on themselves rather than stay more open? Like they've shrunk inwards too much if you know what I mean?

Thanks mate. I couldn't work out what the hell was happening with my RH til I worked out it was the pebbles. Only took a day to work it out. Stoner! [emoji3]

Lol! AK49 sounds like my kinda weed dude!

What do you mean pull the small pots out ?.
I think they are going to dry out a lot quicker, so I'm expecting to be on top of watering. The smaller 10ltr's pots I shall be doing every day a maybe twice a day at the peek, 2ltr gave me about 10% run with them. Its going to be 4-5ltr for the 20ltr pot.
They are a little tricky to water, you can't go to near the edge it just runs out of the holes. I found my self watering just round the center and making sure that I'm going slowly so i does not make a break for it.

I paper bagged dried the AK, every other day wile in the bags I gave them a jiggle around so they did not get flat spots. I was probably a bit harsh on trimming them, I left a minimal amount of sugar leaf on them.
