Nizza, I'm really intrigued with your set up. Here's what I'm thinking. Perlite filled cups, with hole in side a couple of inches up, hanging in a nute rez filled to a level above the hempy hole. You let this rez set being agitated by airstones for about a wk. Then drain rez letting party cup rez dry, then recharging the rez.let me give u a different pic ,that wasnt under the lights ( i lifted them for the pic normally they are very close) View attachment 2320903 I fill the res with water and forget about it. to avoid overheating its off for 2 hours a day. oh yeah and inbetween resevoir changes ( once a week) i let em dry out. the resevoir goes into the hemy holes and have airstones in it
EXACTLY WHAT IM DOING!! its a perlite/vermiculite tho . ill give u a new picNizza, I'm really intrigued with your set up. Here's what I'm thinking.

Let me know how close I am.
I used a Vermiculite Perlite mix and I am watering my 2 liters every other day, but then they are also under 400watt HPS, and its still kinda summer hot. My last straight perlite 2 liter got watered daily, and loved it! With CFL's you could probably get away with every other day, to every 2 days. I would just tip them over in the morning, and if no water comes out of the hole, then you its time to replenish the tank.so I am starting 3 hempy bucket grows. I am using 2ltr bottles. I am using 100% perlite. I was curious if someone could tell me how often do I need to water and how much? I have a small grow box and will be using CFLs for lighting. I am trying to grow 3 afghan kush ryder autoflowers so would a hempy bucket be a good way to grow these? any help would be great.
ok thank you very much.I used a Vermiculite Perlite mix and I am watering my 2 liters every other day, but then they are also under 400watt HPS, and its still kinda summer hot.

I also just harvested an Auto Northern Lights Blue that I grew in 3 gallon 100% perlite. She did just fine, also under CFLs.
what size and how many CFLs did you use?I used a Vermiculite Perlite mix and I am watering my 2 liters every other day, but then they are also under 400watt HPS, and its still kinda summer hot.

I am using (4) 55 watt CFLs for Veg.what size and how many CFLs did you use?
with autos did you use 6500k for veg and switch to 2700k? or just use 2700k from the start?I am using (4) 55 watt CFLs for Veg.
sorry I am new to this. so are you trying to just get 4 nodes on your plants then start flowering?Here's my hempy girls just under 3 weeks. I am mainlining for four nodes. All the plants have been topped once and some of them just got topped for the second and last time. Pics 2,3,4 are of the same plant and 5,6,7 are of another plant before and after the second topping. With the second topping came the removal of the first node shoots and leaf and removal of the second node sheets (I left the leaf). What do you guys think?
