Ok so Ive thinking about doing these two strains for a while but I gotta pick one.

Im a one strain at a time man For ease of feeding and plant problems and need a little help deciding, who's got some opinions?


This year I'm doing 3 plots of 30 with 3 foot wide by 2 foot holes filled with lots of organic stinky stuff perlite, lime and Epsom salts in the bush. They will be surouned by 8ft high cages to give support later on in life. The soil that comes out of the holes will get put into a raised bed which will be mixed with chicken poo, lime, ash
and Epsom salt, to be turned into sog beds with auto ak47 feminised seeds which I'll be making with codilide silver when they come back in stock from attitude.

For watering I have some 1000L water tanks but not sure what would be the best
way to feed the 30 of them.

Would gravity fed drippers work on 30 plants with timers or would the pressure not be strong enough? Or has some1 else got a different idea for irrigation

Any input would be great even critisizim and little random tips. I'm an experienced grower but Any idea helps everyone reading this thead including my self

sweet plan, if u could aford both i'd do it!, glad to see your growing organic too, random tip go easy with the chicken poo, its super high in N dont burn your babies, if u have a dog, or know someone with a dog, comb it and get the hair it will stop creature from coming around your babies, and molass, is great to add to soil

Thanks buddy yeah the poo I use is old to take the heat off it I also use cow horse and pig poop.
All my plants are safe from animals with the cages I build, they over grow them when they start streching and provide support, the animals where I'm from only pick on them when they are young for some reason. Yeah love my molasses, use that in my feedings.

dpeending on the size of your tank and how handy with a tool you are, ive seen someone add a polycarb sheet over the top of the tank with weights on it to act as a piston type thing. ie. When the taps open the water drops and the weights keep pressure on the water to help "push" it out. Ive seen it done but donno if it actually made THAT much difference.....

Failing that could you run a small solar powered pump?

EDIT:

Or find a small enough pump that you can just draw power from a solar panel and inverter?

Yeah was thinking about solar pumps, in the past I've used pumps and car batteries with succsess but solar is more reliable when a battery is there for clowdy days
