your plant still has a lot of green healthy leaves. you're at what, week 8, 9?
Should see mine lol hope she doesn't take as long to finish as @MATTYMATT726 Hubba did
Damn man, i gave up shortly after my last pic. That had to be a month ago. I just couldn't keep up with it or my photo Durban really. I also had 3 bad Blue Dreamatic seeds that didn't pop and never had that issue of 3 in a row like that. Popped a White Widow photo in the same pot of coco as one of them and didn't have an issue. WW is all I've got at the moment. I am going to try the last 2 BD seeds soon though.

Bottom feesing is great, especially in coco. Can feed all she wants, when she wants. That's why i love the Auto Pots and 2 liter- 2 gal hempys.
Matty:

So are you saying you put the hempy pop bottle in a container filled with nutes, (which would be at higher level than the pop bottle drain hole)?

I've never used coco, have you tried bottom-feeding with a perlite hempy?

I always thought it was essential to allow 10- 15% drain-off to ensure the pH was consistent in the entire pop bottle.

I've noticed that my pH will start to increase in a few hours if left sitting around, so wouldn't the pH in the bottom feed reserve increase considerably over a day?

Oh, no XD the Hempy is ran normal, but my autopots are obviously bottom fed. I should have seperated my thoughts between the 2 methods. Just meant that the 2 both have access to the water/nutes as a res as opposed to just plain being watered and nothing till next time. That's my bad for not really clarifing

Maybe we can do a “dirt” and “other”. I hate to leave anyone out. I really just wanted to keep it to a red cup Not a red cup on top of a box. Or a cup in cup. Just a plain ol red cup.

I just started a couple in 3 gallons this week. I’m going to run my red cup along side these so I can be on the same schedule and not have to mix nutes only for the red cup.
what about if i spray a clear cup red lol

She's taking her time, which is fine with me. Still alone in the tent though, the 2 Fantasmos never showed up...been a full week now since planting. hmm never had this problem before, but I don't usually plants seeds in 4 gal containers :roll:

I might've got lazy, plus i topped but i let my Hubba go to 98 days. Just wanted some slight ambers just to make sure cause i sometimes can't tell the difference between clear and cloudy. Fantasmo is crazy giggly like mad smoke/vape. I hope you get atleast 1 good one to pop. Seems like the same dilemma as my recent Blue Dreamatic seeds.
