Do you know which theme you are using? You may be on a theme we have not yet got to with the styling. If you are unsure, look at the bottom left below the footer and there is a toggle to switch themes. As of now, the most work has been done on Carbon and Illuminate. If you are not on one of those, try switching and see if you can see the up and down arrows mentioned below.

On the right hand side on desktop and phone at the bottom, you should see two up and down arrows. Those will take you to the respective top and bottom with one tap/click. We can Look into the pagination being displayed up top.

Hey Granny. I can go to the grow store at lunch tomorrow if you want to give me a shopping list for your grow style for the side by side.

I've been working on this forum lately and have really neglected getting my fog system together. So I'm going to use that tent to teach myself how to grow in soil.

My other tent is about 3 weeks from harvest. That's where I will put a RDWC vs Soil challenge next using clones. You and your 2 friends can decide which is better in a blind taste test.

Give me all your soil secrets if you want to win!

What do you think about airpots?

Maybe we should set something up where I send you a large box of different sizes and you can distribute them to who wants to try them?
Considering how many I have and how expensive they are on Amazon, nobody should pay that price.
I'd only need to recover shipping but yeah I have a 55 gallon barrel full of airpots I'll never use. One of those buys where a hydroshop going out of business had a clearance sale so I bought the entire inventory and paid about $2/pot.

I believe there is a huge difference between air pots and fabric bags.
I saw so many using the fabric I got 25. Never used one after keeping track of all who use them.
I see no measurable difference between them and plastic if you mix your soil and water correctly.
I even concluded in my situation the plastic 5g I use were better for me as the fabric would have made me work harder watering.
Now the air pots I do have my eye on still and think knowledgeable users of them are showing them to be worthy of a try.

Haven't had one bad piece of advice from him yet except maybe his race pick today~!:p

Hey now..My pick finished 6th!!!

I think I've tried them all. Fabric, Rootmakers, both stepped and airpot knock-off, Vevors which is another knock-off and others. None come close to the original

For me, the choice is simple really. I can have this

or this

Coiling and compaction = stress, always feeding & watering from behind, and lower yields
Air pruned roots = high metabolism, faster growth, heavy eating and drinking, greater yields

My routine is start and veg in a one gallon airpot (orange bottom) then upcan to the Classic 2800 which is a common blow molded ribbed container from Nursery Supply

The results of this process are described in this video at the 2:00 mark

Where does the guy in an apartment keep his bale of Promix? lol
Click to expand...
Haha, and I actually have a bale of promix in the outside storage closet, I just use coco and perlite.
May use it for different kind of plants, or a mixture for mothers.


(The utility closet cause there's no washer and dryer here)

It sucks living in a small ass one bedroom apartment and trying to do all this, but may be moving in a few months.

Definitely not Ideal.

Illuminate dark. Some times see a floating up arrow. On the phone gets in the way of stuff. Not always there and no down arrow, at least not on this page.

When I go to my journal it starts me at #1 I have to scroll down, hit next, repeat.

Zen, I am not able to find a floating arrow. I'm on Illuminate dark too.

On the grow journal thing, when you open a thread by the thread title and not by clicking on the last post, is that not how it should work? If I am reading you right, it is working as intended?

There is a lot of scrolling tho, for sure. Maybe if people would not be so long winded, sheesh. I like using the PC better than the phone for the scrolling for sure. If there is a behavior we need to change, I just need specifics.

If you start scrolling down one appears at bottom right. It fades away a second after you stop scrolling. No top arrows appear.

Here is a pic. They are confusing so I try not to post.

Oh. If I make the thread I think only see option to unwatch but on another I see latest iirc. I’ll check.

Can’t help the long winded. I already paraphrase or drop words. To the point of misunderstandings. 🤷‍♂️

On other sites we have the same option to change pages at the top as we do at the bottom.

I’ll try a few things before saying ya/nay.

Yeah man, I'll take them. I can send you my UPS account if you wouldn't mind shipping me 12 I guess. I'll have 12 starts, but only flower 8 in a 4x8. So like 3 gallon maybe?

Thanks for the offer.
 
@CannaGranny, first of all I’m sorry for not dropping in sooner. Life has been crazy with work, the kids, and the kids sports. Loving every minute of it tho! I hit BB daily, but mostly lurking and not a lot of posting right now. Great to see you got banned 😂. Cant wait to see one of your famous SCROG bushes over here soon!

I rung up some of my Cali friends and many told me to stay away from that dude. A few told me there are people looking for him so I'm not sure how deep his larceny goes but I'm guessing he was moving pounds and didn't deliver but kept the money. I asked them but they said it was best I knew as little as possible, just in case, Not sure what that means but I have an idea........:cautious:

Good morning all,

Morning PAL. 👮‍♀️👋

Great day here today. But next two days are calling for frost warnings.

Keeping the veggies in until Friday. But the beefsteak aren’t happy. They want out.

Twin 2 never missed a beat. She’s off and running. Just hope she can handle the cold.

Surprising how much I can smell her when I open the front door. At least my son confirmed it’s only visible from one spot if you really look for it.

No bears at least. 🤣 Didn’t get woken by screaming rabbits either which was nice. 🐇

We had this the other night but I couldn’t upload. Traffic low so let’s try now.

For G$ and another I don’t recall ATM?
