Everyone loves a good challenge! so here we go.... 7.5 gal fabrics vs 5 gal plastics! i have 2 confidential cheese, and 2 jacks cleaner 2. one of each in fabric and plastic. these were cloned at the same time and are nearly identical in size and shape.
So two strains under one light. 4 plants, 2 fabrics 2 plastics, each strain in both types of container. i figured that the 7.5 gal (though not filled all the way with soil) would be pretty equal to the 5gal plastic since the roots prune near the edges of the fabric pot. I'm pretty stoked to see how they turn out! i'll keep them as equal in size as i can!
Here's my new mix i put together today...
half and half peat and coco coir
3/4 pumice 1/4 rice hulls
1 part worm power worm castings (they looked DAMN good too!)
about 4 cuft total to which i added:
2cups insect frass
2cups kelp meal
2cups neem meal
2cups crab shell
2cups fishbone meal
2cups gypsum
8cups rock dust (DE, Azomite, C.B.D. minerals)
2cups oyster shell flour
i'll be feeding it organic rice and oats while it's cooking in the fabric.....
to say the least.... i'm pumped about this mix. i think it's going to be extremely high quality stuff..... just speculating
