:):):) Nope. 2 gallons for all 8 or 1 quart each.:):):)
Since there is no PM option on this forum, I'm at a loss as to how to contact killa 'bout the seeds.:(
The jury is still out on whether or not I'll have the surgery. At least the Dr. took the pressure off. He said he's willing to wait as long as I want. He did add that if I wait until I'm in my 70's, he won't even consider doing it.:D So, that gives me a good 15 years to figure things out.:D:stoned::D
ok. i was like holy sh!t. you know how many bottles of nutes that you would go through!
i've got an idea working for some hempy's. i've got to get a few more supplies though. not exactly sure when that will happen, but i'm excited. you and killa have me ready to go!
send killa some rep with your email addy.
i know you'll do what's best for you and your's about the surgery, either way, best of luck.
and at least you'll have a bunch of meds!

I've been spreading the love around but I guess it will take a lot more before I can add to rep again.
I can't see us ever going back to a soil grow. The hempy method is just so much easier, at least for us. We will be trying larger buckets next time, though. These are working out OK especially with the crowded conditions. Future grows won't have near as many plants in bloom at one time so we'll have the room for 1 gallon buckets.
Gonna start clearing out a corner of the shop today for the new room. It will take a while just to make enough room.:D
sounds good mc. the new project is starting......i'm excited for you (and for my eyes)!
do you use a pH meter or what? that's one of the things holding me back. that and getting perlite and vermiculite in bulk.
i can't wait to start the buckets.
good growing.

Thanks killa, looking forward to it. Still haven't decided on the surgery. The pro and the con columns are about even.
Shake ~ A PH meter will be a big plus. I tried the litmus paper and the test tube/drops methods. Both got me close, I thought. With either it wasn't too hard to be off by .5 or better. The meters are pretty cheap online. My R/O water is right at 6.0. After I add the nutes and stuff it is usually at 5.6. Two drops of PH Up and a gallon of water/nutes is on the money at 5.8. Sure beats trying to match colors to a chart. Besides, I'm somewhat red/green color blind.:D:D:D
I don't know that you'll need to get the "lites" in bulk. After making up 10 - 2 1/2 quart buckets, I'm part way through my third bag of perlite and still on my first bag of vermiculite. Both are just the regular size bags from Wally World. Even to make up 1 gallon buckets wouldn't take much unless, you're planning a monster grow.:eek::jawdropper:
thanks for all of the information toker!
i don't think my local wally world even has vermiculite. as a matter of fact i don't think any store that i visit for supplies has both of the "lites". weak.
i think i will get a meter. i've seen those cheap milwaukee ones on ebay. i'll probably start with one of those and then get a better one down the road.
don't have the space for a monster grow at the moment, but i wish i did!
good growing.

You might also try Lowes or Home Depot. I found the vermiculite at my local Lowes.
The cheap milwaukee is the one I went with. I found it on FleaBay but went directly to the vendor's site to order it. It came with a pouch of caibration fluid. Works like a champ.
thanks again.
