The pic I've uploaded is my plant on 1/10/2007...about fifteen or twenty days before it was hacked down for being a monster that wouldn't give me any smoke..but it was doing fine...as were the others in my previous grows...This is most likely a burn, but it is attributed to me upping the dose of ferts to correct N def...This plant was about two months from seed..did fine...just was shitty mexican genetics..I was using shultz 5-30-5 daily with 16 ounces of water...the bb certainly doesn't seem to like that much ferts though..Another thing is that even with drain holes, I wouldn't feel comfortable giving them such an amount of water that it would go out the bottom..

Again I'll mention that the previous two grows in the end when I dug soil out of my buckets to wash them I did not have any sort of soggy mess...was moist soil from the day before...nothing excessive, roots filled the entire bucket..I know no drainage is very unorthodox, but the only reason I still avoided punching holes in the bottom again is the successful growth of my previous plants in the same manner..
