Love to have a house but Trailer / Modular Home is more affordable, Doc the Dog / kush is about a week away from harvest, looking AWESOME AND PUT ON A LOT OF WEIGHT.

Cool man and I know about the cost of housing. That is why I had bought a trailer.

Totally cheaper for a modular trailer. 3 bedroom house with no land, $1100, or trailer with 3 acres $900, or trailer with no land $600ish around here. I stayed in a studio when I first got here but it had everything I needed so I was happy 
Still no word on the house we want, they're doing ANOTHER showing tomorrow wtf. They obviously don't think anyone that has already applied is good enough, wish they were more straight forward about things because it's wasting alot of people's time, I hate being in limbo

Before I forget, I planted the first clone into the mapito. I'll let everyone know how it goes 
not sure what to think of it as it's basically just chopped up foam stuff. First time using fabric pots too but this combo would be a life saver if it works. Reusable and I can use the water from my hydro res and 1 gallon hydro plants can get about 2.5-3 feet tall without having any problems, which would save alot of space. If this one survives I got another 6 clones ready for transplant in to the mapito

Yea my GF and I are holding off moving, cant take the stress of trying to find a place. SO many bait and switches, shit wholes, overpriced, or way overinvolved landlords. Its hard to find the right fit out there. Helps get the grow back on track atleast, gonna be able to keep the flower cycles going back to back and hopefully save up enough to buy our own house and stop renting.
I am looking forward to seeing the FCJ. I been debating pullin the trigger on it from delicious and northern blue, seeing how yours does might be the kick I need!
Anyway,
Stay free stay high

The fcj is really sticky in veg, veg trichs and it smells, well, fruity lol, I think it will turn out good, probably will flower it in a few weeks or so if it likes the mapito. It's a calmag whore though

Lol that's crazy hippy, genetics are evolving into a new species or something lol
The mapito went well! The plant never drooped going from dwc to the mapito so I decided to do a few more transplants. Mk and Aurora went into the mapito and all the new seedlings and 2 glue soon to be mom's went into the flood table. I'm thinking of ditching the dm zone and going back to the pool shock, the shock works 10x better and is 1/100th the price of zone, i figured I'd give the zone a good try but a res started smelling funny for the 2nd time even with keeping the water well under 68 degrees. Not good. Maybe I'll use both, we will see

The stuff I have is made by X-nutrients. It doesn't look like any other mapito I've seen, it looks like ground up carpet padding The website says it's "It is a special blend of rockwool and PU (polyurethane flakes).". Such a weird product, I got it for free from the hydro shop and figured I'd give it a try but wasn't expecting it to work well, but so far so good.
I hear ya about the house hunting, it sucks! I owned a house for the past 10 years until I moved to cali and I've been renting ever since. It's tough, especially when I want to make improvments but can't because the house isn't mine. I plan on renting one more house, but it has to be perfect for me, and then I'll stay there until I save enough to buy something eventually

It's pH neutral, it says to presoak it but I didn't, I figure it'll be OK (I hope, we'll see lol). I really do like these pots! The hydro shop down the street has them for under 2$ for the 1 gallon pots, I got 10 for $17, I'm thinking about using them in a flood table with the mapito or Rockwool, flood once a day, I think it would work so well. I got so many ideas running through my mind for these pots and mapito now, it's awhole new world with all tthese new toys coming out for growers

I'm gonna have to give the dog kush a run sometime, I'm just super worried about the herm issue if I don't catch it early on, I have little to no experience with anything that herms but once I get some more space I'll give it a shot, it does look dank

I wish that could be true, there's so many awesome strains with herm tendencies that get culled, I don't think it's as easy as cloning it to eliminate a trait though.From my understanding of plants, genetic hermies will always be hermie, cloning them only makes the exact replica of the mother plant (also a herm) and will also carry the trait that can pop up at any given time. I'm not really sure how cloning eliminates genetics so I'm not sure if that would hold true.The good thing would be, since it does have the herm trait, it could possibly just be triggered by certain stresses and figuring out which stresses causes it to herm would be the best route to go (high heat, wind ect could be what triggers it, so avoiding the stresser would be the best option). Plants without the hermie trait can still hermie though, and stressed herms would be the better plant to produce seeds with.
