less is more

[ortsa1]

anyone find less is more in coco? got some 3-4oz plants in less then 1 liter of medium.

medium was not reusable it was so dense that if water was poured on top it would sit for hours before draining through

I have a friend who also uses really small pots and a very dense soil and gets huge plants like yourself with ounces. Personally I use bigger pots but always interested on seeing others techniques.

Nice job ortsa1,I do 7 liters in my scrog and can pull 9oz per plant,but 1 liter that's fantastic.

Nice work. Yeah what was your feeding regime? Good luck. -granger

 

[ortsa1]

1 gallon per hour toro drip heads (awesome because they have filter disc and can be opened for cleaning)

feeds 8min every 3 hours

1.2 EC max PH 5.6-6.1 nutes are a home made rip off of cns17 without the binder and pekacid (drip clean like chemical)

with the way things have gone with what people are willing to pay for finished product you cannot feed plants with liquid money anymore have to find realistic solutions

Is anyone using large pots and watering multiple times a day? I seem to see lots of small pot multiple feed/day or large pot which gets watered like soil. Does anyone veg out a massive root system in a large pot?

i did some trees in 7 gallons with the same feed shedual once the roots got established and they did very well

i scaled them back to 5 gallon this cycle and they seem to be doing better they are only at day 20 right now though
