yeah, can't wait for those buds man. Your girl in that net pot is going to be BEAUTIFUL!

btw...you just trying the one net pot this time, or have you got another one to setup??
I need another drip tray and then i will set up another girl in a diff basket but without an air pump and see if theres much difference in yield and potency and speed of growth with the air pump or if the holes are enough on their own:blsmoke:

hold on ..?

you put a hose in ur soil to get more air movemnt ...wudnt u clog the hose with soil? .. idk ..
The hose has been holed and put inside a sponge to stop it from clogging.
Once the air pressure in the sponge builds up it will release the air.
The sponge will also allow the roots to grow into it:blsmoke:

sorry nat.
you have the wrong end of the stick.
i didnt mean you .
all i said is,
ive read once,think from the grow bible.
that its poss, to get more air to a plants roots.
by putting a piece, of hose in the soil.
to get more air to the roots.

the sponge and hose in the soil is a really, really good idea. did you say you were doing it or you were going to do it? would it interfere with proper drainage? sorry if you answered all this before...

i've never grown herb in soil but things like this make me want to give it a whirl.

soil hydro grow, bet it works.
might give it a try,with the 16 headed plant,i have had in 12/12, for 2half weeks,and it also needs potting on might try. sounds like a good idea.
but i thought the other day, you said that.
exposed roots,was a no,no.
wont the roots come out the pots holes.
i have one of them pots in my pond, with soil clay pebbles,to hold the pots under water, but still all the roots seep through.

i think i remember someone saying the roots would either take a downward turn to avoid the light or retreat. exposed roots is a no-no but if the roots grow into the light - then that is their own fault!

You had tiny pots with major roots exposed.
I expect the small roots to shrink back into the soil as they near the intense light.
Those are 12 litre baskets i am using:blsmoke:

Basically yes a kind of hybrid aero/hydro/soil grow to maximize growth.
If i had a mh bulb in veg they would have been better:blsmoke:

i don't see how - they look great as is!
Being grown from seed with a hps bulb aint to good for them:mrgreen:
Apparently this ballast that i bought takes mh or hps bulbs which i didn't know so next time it will be very blue during veg:blsmoke:

I have a nice male plant here that i will refer to from now on as gimpoidliercarbonbasedshiteformicusasslickinggetawaywithanythingdowhathelikes plant.
When he is big enough i wont use him to breed with i will just bin him because hes crap.:twisted:

Instead of using any kind of poisonous substances to get some seeds i will just do the old fashioned way and use the best males and breed properly in the way that was intended and weed out the males as i go along so as not ruin any biodiversity with chemical interference of any kind.
Chemicals really do make a mess of things especially people.

My seeds will be pure and proper and untainted by any kind of crap and not have a tendency to become a hermaphrodite at the slightest sign of stress.
I will make the best seeds i am sure:peace::joint:

The airbasket is working great as the pictures show the plant loves it.
I induced stretch over the past few days by raising the lamp up a bit higher and i have now re-lowered it to get them fat.
The pics show the female in the basket and my most tric laden and darkest male that i will use to breed with.

I am going to take a clone off of the female in the basket and store the males pollen to breed with as i want to smoke all of this weed.
I have decided to build a small veg box that will use a 125watt cfl with a proper reflector.

The air basket is definitely working if anyone else wants to try it i cant find anything wrong with the plant at all and it is twice the size already of my other plants.:blsmoke:













The best male in the respect of tric count anyway.
