I've heard a lot of good things about those pots and they are supposed to last for a while. I'm just wondering about the cleanup part of it, water would have to come out of those side holes just don't know how much. Might try one next to a bag and see how it goes. Yeah I can be a bit lazy sometimes just running it through my head. Just don't like the thought of having to bend over or get on my knees every time I water, that's all.
 
Oh ya I do remember the grow journals and even fastbuds was talking about this having really tight node spacing but also said CAN (operative word I am sure or hope) but can get up to 40” so guess cross fingers and hope! Do I need to add lil more perlite next time so doesn’t take 4 days for 1/2 gallon to be dry even to need next feeding? That just seems like aloooong time to me but NEWBIE! LOL Thx
@archie space gemmill Hey how are those air pots or whatever there called doing? When you water, does it come out the sides? Curious I like them but I can see that they could be messy.

Sorry @TxRebel didn't mean to butt in!

breeder/seedbank write ups estemates and stuff......pinch of salt...as the test growers are usually the best of the best :smokeit: id recommend most folk assume that they will be somewhere between half and 2/3rds of the numbers.
as for the harvest times,most breeders/seedbanks lie through their teeth...add at least 1 week most times 2 weeks and for some its suck it and see :smoking:
if someone in the tropics v someone in a cold hole (me) cooler climates i think like more airy pots,hot places ya dont want a pot drying out in 6 hours.
my 1st grow had no perlite,and shit soil waterlogged/overwatered = shit time of it.i use biobizz lightmix (think 10% perlite) and add half as much of perlite as soil,and 1 part vermiculite....or 4 parts biobizz 2 parts perlite 1 part vermiculight.
airpots some love em some hate em.......a slight concave to the top of the pot helps.technique is a lil different.pour stop pour stop,ya cant water like a standard pot or ya will get a bit of splash.....but if ya have some saucers to suit its not a problem :thumbsup:
i also think plants grow more or quicker when dampish...not wet not dry or moist.just an eejits theory/speculation as a lot of the time i dont talk sense.so pinch of salt with me to please :smoking:
good luck n keep er lit
:pighug:
 
Thanks buddy! Bout to open the old tent and check today’s progress! Anyone that has answer let me know but should I start pruning some of the smaller inner leaves that don’t have pistols formed in the y where the leaves (and their lil stems) come off the branch/node/stem (whatever u wanna call it)?? Most are easy to see where pistols either are or ARENT forming so didn’t know if nows time to start or give it a few more days incase the smaller leaves just haven’t formed them yet but will?! Thx
