I gathered that, my friend. And you are doing a stellar job, she looks good. I was just hoping others who's completed a few, might chime in.
I've got a bunch of mothman & methane, but some of the posts Ive seen on reddit have me concerned. I trust Afn much more so than reddit, is why I asked. My bro's here, know how to grow!! The knowledge base here is simply phenomenal.

I've got a Methane freebie goin right now, been vigorous and easy. Seed germinated in a day with a nice long tail. Started showing flower after about 30-35 days above ground. Been away from the house for a few days and excited to see her tomorrow.


She's the larger plant here, three days younger than a Mephisto Sour Stomper. Didn't top the stomper, did top the methane. Both have a pretty hard 90° bend towards the base via training clip. Photos from earlier this week:

Super simple....saw this tote/bucket on the shelf. It's a 5gal:

Drilled two holes in lid with a hole saw for netcups to sit in, and ran airline for airstone thru a netcup. The cups hold a rockwool cube surrounded by clay pebbles.

My thought process here was the airtsone should stay with the plants, not with the bucket. I've done it the other way where the airline went thru its own little hole in the bucket and it turned into a PITA when the roots engulfed the airstone.....basically had everything stuck together. The plant is gonna take the stone anyway so might as well marry them at the beginning.

Another difference from my other bubble buckets is I skipped the sight tube to show water level. I had one leak before, makes the bucket more cumbersome, more shit to buy, etc. Might come back to bite me when two plants are BANGIN in flower but I figure I should be testing ec/ppm more frequently with two plants anyway...lid's gotta come of for that.


I got home during lights off but flashed the girls to check in and take a photo, they look great. When I left them I jammed another training clip on the sour stomper and left her hangin sideways, she looks awesome. Didn't for the Methane as she's sitting so squat:
