:clap: Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah
Watering correctly and getting it right, not too dry and not too wet can be a right pain in the ass with pot plants, especially as they grow and shape-shift then start flowering as well. Inventing a way to neutralize over-watering or under-watering would be a major asset to all growers. Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah, use this method to water correctly every time at every stage of your grow.
I’m currently at the end of week 8 of my Xmas big-gun/auto-assassin grow and yes leaves are yellowing; another week to go at most and bud count hmmmm. 600ml then 500ml then 400ml, experience counts?, that’s better but nowhere good enough by the looks of things, fuck now too dry. This requires logical intervention to invent a way to 100% know when the plant wants water. Logic has played a part for this AFN-problem cracker. No More Under or Over Watering EVER!
I grow in black flower buckets, the buckets that are usually free from supermarkets that flowers are deliver in. They are tapered; 10” at top and 7” at the bottom and fit neatly together with a lip on top.
This is how to make watering simple and 100% accurate.
(1) On one bucket, at its base, Tape 2 layers (one above the other), of tape, as guides around the bottom of the outside of the bucket. About 2 inches.
(2) With a box cutting knife, carefully, use the tape guide to cut the bottom of the bucket off. (Cut within the tape and tidy up with a pair of scissors after)
(3) You should have a bucket now with 2 inches of bottom missing, (similar to when you transplant new plants using the 2 pot/cup method)
(4) When you pot up with soil, place the cut bucket on the inside of the pot first. You now have two layers.
(5) After about 3 weeks, when the roots of the plant have wound around and bound the soil in the bottom of the bucket, thus holding the soil together, you are in business. When you need to know when to water, just lift the inner bucket lining up, revealing the bottom of the plants root zone and inspect the soils moister condition.
This two container method is gold to all growers. I have never seen or heard of this before, but I am eager to cut the buckets. No more watering annoyances.
