Just for size comparison. I do mix my ferts in it though. Although I have used zero ferts to date. All natural backyard soil with heavy perlite. The potted plant is 50/50 natural soil with Fox Farm OF soil and about 40% perlite mixed in.

That was my first thought, just for size reference.
Do you have a valve in the bottom so you can fill your watering container? Or do you just tilt it and pour?
Be careful of rust that might form inside between uses.;-)

I just dip in a 2g watering can. The barrel has some kind of brick color red liner. when not using for ferts I collect my beer cans in it. I have to dump out the last few gallon though. I just pick a plant and tilt it over.

also about no ferts so far? I would tell you to look at my avatar pic. That plant was grown with 2 bags of FFOF soil and perlite. We all know 2 bags will not grow plant that big. I have Nitrogen gobs in my backyard soil. This is the first year I went 100% backyard soil. I also got last start after my first 12 clones flowered on me. I think these went into the ground June 1st or fathers day. Best thing I did was start over with new clones. The one I did keep is still stunted and growing single leafs.

I just do not know whats going to happen in flower. I know stretch will be very cool. I will probbaly feed flower ferts. Buds may be leafy for I seen that in the past. It is what it is. at some point you just have to much N.

That must be some awesome dirt you've got there.

My backyard soil is garbage, but my plan is to amend with a bunch of goodies in winter/early spring with crab shell meal, kelp meal, azomite, dolomite...forgetting what else I want to add. Also planning on a good bit of coir to improve airation and drainage. The best laid plans of mice and men...

hey guys, been a while since i pic updated here. maybe like a week.
so ive had to yank like 2-3 6 foot males from the garden. a very sad experience.lol
out of about 10 i had 4 males, 4 females and 2 unkown gender.
1 male was a kush and looking so good i brought it to another home and that will run
its course. maybe for some breeding, just snag a few beans for next season etc.

Pics

- Got one of my baby in the 40 gal georgina. is now massive looks like a christmas tree.
-The huge jack herra with like 9 heads. not showing gender yet. praying for female.
-my 5 Autoflowers i got going on day 4 testing the strain for a buddy Northern lightsX Big bud.
-pic of my clone dome. got 3 clones i took from the plants im sure are female as well as 10 Girlscout cookie seeds
just cracking to their day 0 lol.
- My sativa Dom bag seed.
- a group shot. i posted a pic about a month ago and the same group had 6 plants instead of 3. 3 of the 6 were male. so sad cuz they were all so damn tall and wide.
-A close up shot of the little jack herra that i believe to be a pheno. looks dank.
- and lastly a sad fat kid (me) holding the 6 foot i yanked the other day lol.

found a funny picture today when my mom was looking thru pics.
my old man has been growing for about 30 yrs. always like 1 or 2 plants outdoor for his own use.
nothing crazy. but he tought me the basics. so i guess u could call me a 2nd generation grower lol.
A funny pic of him in his Airforce hat next to his first plant. looks sativa lol. Circa de 1978
funny to think back then that plant was prolly 5% now we have 20% + thank god.

keep it green peeps.

hey guys.. FINALLY got my buddy to send me a pic of my baby from last yr. ive gone thru like 5 phones since last yr so i could never keep a pic that long.
but he still had it. been asking him to send me for fucking weeks. actually smoked a blizz with him yesteday and hes like ill send it since im standing next to u
im like good call. i wake up to realize i still dont fucking have it. text him and thankfully he sent lol.

now last yr i was only tending to 1 -2 plants not 10 so i babied this one . topped religiously from 4th node. and just water and our natural compost soil
in the garden. not a drop of nutrient. pulled just about 9 oz. shes glorious lol. hoping to break my 9oz record this yr with my 40 gal container. well see

the 2 pics.

last yrs baby id say 3 weeks into flowering out of about 7-9 weeks. and the champion for my biggest yield.
and the other pic is my 40 gal confirmed female from this yr. the contender.

im rooting for contender haha cuz i finished smoking the champion some time ago lol :weed:
