ive seen you say hempy a couple of times {i understand it has to do with your potting medium} do you have a few to tell me bout that or would you prefer i just search it myself??

lol why would i want that....hempy is a method of soiless mediums....using a base mix of 50/50 perlite vermaculite( i personally use 100% perlite)..there are a couple varations with adding coco coir..basically you plant in a container with no holes on the bottem...such as plastic trash cans/mop buckets...an about 2 in up from the bottem on one side you put a hole 1inchsq is good....you may want to put a screen up so nothing falls out the hole....now the bottem 2inches is like a make shift resiver...so this system is in terms a passive hydro system..where the water is wicked up to the plants roots via perlite/coco...as you can see that 1 gal container yeilded pretty good an herijuana is a lower yeilding strain....the growth from some hempy's is compared to dwc/swc....also in this system you use hydro nutes but any will work as long as its ina liquid...i like most dont use a ph montering system....peace az

so is the hole/spiget on the side wicking water or are you watering from the top then the hole is acting as some...sorry jus a lil more detail im a smart girl i just need a lil more to get the image right in my head...i love the 50/50 perlite/vermaculite...i just need a lil clarity on the side hole...thx

the hole acts as an overflow an makes sure you dont water log your roots...as you get used to it...feeding an regular watering's you wont even spill over that hole since you'll know how much each container needs...also you need to water everyday every other day as the perlite really wont hold water on its own for long...peace az

so say in those stryfoam cups how far up from the bottom is your hole??

in those styro cups i'll put it about an inch above bottem...you could make it a lil higher put i like to check an work my stuff every day...peace az

check in work in terms of water n manage like if you have it an inch above you always have that as a constant factor in how you water?? edit: are those 16 oz cups?

those happen to be 32oz cups...

peace az

one more then i promise i will leave you alone..have you ever done it w/ just perlite or always 50/50?

i personally use 100%perlite all the time..the 50/50 is just a "base" to start with...me an lumberjack run it this way...an no ph...peace az

perfect...i saw you and lumberjack discuss it in his trees thread...just didnt want to hi-jack as im prone to with a ton of questions...100%perlite sounds great to me, I needlessly trimmed a branch thats been oddly thriving in water since late friday nite n i have to many clones right now to put her in my w/ my clones so Im delighted to try your hempy on her. maybe I should get her in a rooting situation first...but i thought i read in lumberjacks thread that u2 do your clones in perlite only to. Thank you so much for your time, I promise I dont normally question people to death, I was just particularly intrigiued by the hempy technique.

no problem....anyway i can help this world grow more weed its more then worth it to me...an yea clones will eather be started in the bubble cloner or rw cubes then strait into the perlite...peace az

ahh in even worse i hi-jacked your introduce yourself.....SORRRY

its all good..now not only is there some good pics but also some great info..if people wanna know me..thats whats up an the best description i could think of..peace az

helped me lol but ill prolly use starbucks venti ice tea plastic glasses i seem to have an abundance of those....dammit start a hempy thread so i dont be hijacking this one..lmao..peace im out no more from me..
