Thanks SG. I was just about to ask you or killa about the straight water days like one does with a soil grow.

Mine haven't reached the bottom yet so I'm still watering every day. The hempy bucket system sure takes the worry out of over/under watering.

So far, knock wood, I'm having good luck with the Botanicare Pro Grow stuff. I'm guessing it is very similar to the FF, from what I've read on their site, as they both have scheduled amounts based on seedling, veg or flowering.

hey McToker,

That is correct, you should be feeding everyday until they really make it down and hit the res. Once they are in the res they sure do shoot up. You brought up something that is basicaly once of the best reasons to use hempys. No such thing as over or under watering ... perfect amount each time.

Never tried botanicare, sounds like it should work just fine. I just use FF because that is what I saw killa using and his shit looked amazing. That's all there was to my decision.

Take care, let me know if you have any other questioned.

tryin to keep this updated. may have a humidity problem? newest clones are rooting like champs but being real bitches in the leaves section. I just put 3 new ones in soil and they look ok, but I have 2 in hempys that look like shit. Leaves are all droopy and stuff, looks like over/under watering, but has been sort of consitent. Not sure what the deal is. I thought it was humidity, but it's only at like 50% which is not TERRIBLE. The truth is I only need the ones in hempys in order to preserve genetics. So basically I have 3 months to get one of each strain to root properly. I think i can handle that ... :D

here are some pics.

take care everyone,

1) LSTing ... i abuse my bitches lol
2) the flower room a few days ago
3) most of R4 gettin nice and big only at 28 days too!

forgot this one ... kinda cool

1) rootball from GB mom, got some more space by cutting off the bottom and putting her into a bigger bucket. you can see how rootbound she was down in that res. Probably why she sucked up water so damn fast. The roots are brown due to the FF BigBloom. Now she is in flower :thumbsup: hopefully will give me at least 1.5 zips off her. I'm going to let her go long (long? ha - 6 weeks) and get fat too. So far I have been paying a lot of attention to R5 in hopes of creating a very even canopy (best I can).

Take care,

SG, you present another testament to the greatness of the Hempy bucket. I've been talking about using Hempy buckets for about a year now, and I truly do need to break down and try them out. I might have to take some clones from a nice lookin' fem I have and root them and place them in Hempies. There is no doubt they would take off, given your fine lookin' ladies and all of killa's.

Thanks for sharing your grow, my friend! Continued good luck and harvests for you, as those harvested buds look exceptional!

hey mctoker ... i do believe you are right. i am FINALLY getting things dialed in ... just in time to rip it all down :( but the truth is that i have learned so much so that the new set up will be SO legit. i am thinking about doing a recirculating DWC. not sure, but DWC is on the list. aero was up in the air, but it is probably too much attention for my lifestyle. i need 2-4 days of no look, ya know?
