Mephisto Genetics JR's First Mephisto Run - Sour Crack x2 - Recycling Drip System - CoCo

That weather must be moving my way. It's been raining the last couple of days and the forecast for the next 10 days is a 40% chancel of rain, with many days being a 60% chance. My girls are in a 3 gallon fabric pot and have been soaked to the point of flushing. I think the ph of my rainwater is around 7.2 and I'm worried that it's going to throw the soil ph out of whack.

I wouldn't worry ... i guess these are outside ..if so heres a idea even inside.. smartpots have handles .. ok follow mi now... using pvc for this ..you can use what ever.. take 1 or 2 inch pvc.. just like making a table stand , bring ovc closer hang bags up if ground, using pvc for support. . Adjust pvc based on weight how many.. they dint have come up alot of ground.yet its your decision. . I do this kinda with airpots. I have these square netpots basically. Turned upside down ..airpots situp out runoff. . Get nice air flow and no old runoff buildup at the bottom. You can do this so many was even inside makeholding stands high enough and strong place a container ynder say three pots the runoff falls in then have a drain plug that runs into a 5 gallon or what ever you want . Just a idea...

like here somewhat airpots ..yet use pvc for stand
 
Hell yeah dude, I think I know what your saying. That would sure keep moisture from building up at the bottom and it would also help get rid of them dam roly poly bugs that like to gather under the pots too. That's also make me realize that in the meantime I need to find me a wooden pallet. I first thought maybe I could get one of those plastic pallet type things that stores get 2 liter soda drinks shipped in, but I haven't been able to find any of those, (at least not behind the stores, lol). I also seen where someone else was using a wooden pallet and was talking a about painting it green for more stealth. Thanks Tek ... :peace:
 
Lookin good Jay. I know you dudes have been getting hammered with rain, we been getting it too, no flooding though. You know what they say, turds float!

Hell yeah I love it lol hot and humid is where I like it. Cept for the turds! Lol

Yes it is .. big bruh Edge note wicked

I was looking at that one nice one too.

Oh yes I find it and got in early too. Subd.....loking good. Like the hydroton on top. Smart!

Welcome brother :pass: yeah figured keeping the coco moist at all times should help keep late flower deficiencies in check.. hopefully!!
Good to have u here.
 
@TEKGROW good idea bro Cheers :cheers:
@Need4Weed try looking behind small mom n pop restaurants they usually sell bottles instead of a fountain so might have the crates!

less than $30.00 armorall 2hp shopvac.. amazon prime. saved $100+ ..even with 4x4 tray, i still would need the shopvac...

@TEKGROW
Lol growing in a kiddy pool! Hahaha that's smart bro the tables are expensive as fuck!! Those shop vacs are crucial too when I had pots and saucers I was an idiot and was soaking up the runoff with a towel then ringing it into a bucket... lol ended up getting a tiny 20 dollar wetvac. Works like a charm
:pass:

Update, Day 9
Here she is guys I fed them last night @ 0.85 EC
Overall they are growing healthy but they do have some stress... I see some red veins and the smaller crack has a wavy leaf. Most likely from the temps reaching 88 high.. they're growing nicely tho so Ilots all good.
One thing this wide pot dries slow as hell. Usually I water every other day in 1 gal pots but now I'm watering every 3 or 4 days.

Anyone use a galaxy s6 for taking pics? Been messing with the settings using pro mode with fluoro lighting setting, macro, +10 contrast and sometimes -10 backlight when the flash is too white.
Thanks for watching guys.... stay up. :smokeout::smokeout:
