BG BUG, You asked about the side lighting earlier, here's a couple shots of colas getting side sun! I just put em up there cause I'm not using them right now and thought, what the heck, can't hurt can it?

When ur ready to grow autos message me there a bit different that photos to grow but the best germinaion way I find is soak them in room temp water for 18 hours the do the paper towel method I have had 100percent success rate with this method

Correction, I got them to pop, but they didn't sprout properly, and lost them all in the rapid rooters!

 

[tyler_ hobbyist]

I can't comment on rapid rooters much because iv never used them but maybe u drowned them or dryed them to much???

 

[DingusKhan]

Very nice use of space and otherwise idle equipment!

I know pictures of big fat juicy shiny buds are sexy, but baby pics are my favorite. I like looking closely to see how many new growth tips are developing, how they compare to other parts of the plant, symmetrical growth devolving into random branching...

 

[Chowder]

I hear ya, I've learning so much along the way. Each stage is exciting.

Great looking set up DingusKhan! What sixe of net pot are You using (looks to be about 5 inch)?

 

[DingusKhan]

I'm using 4 and 6. I set my rapid rooters in a 4 inch cup with about 1/2 inch of hydroton in the bottom and then fill the rest of the way as soon as I can see roots sticking out of the rooter. My plan was to sit the 4 inch cup into a 6 inch cup when I moved into a bigger bucket, but the roots are too long and tangled to thread through another net cup. So I will either cut a hole in the bottom of the 6 to feed the root ball through, but hold the 4 inch cup in, or just let it finish growing in the 4 inch cup. I hope it is strong enough for this plant called Moby Dick. If they are strong enough, then I will just skip the 6 inch cups altogether.

I've got a plant now that is 55 inches tall in a 3.75 inch net pot, but with six yo-yos attached over head! You can grow a large plant in a small net pot, but it will require some support, especially if they get top heavy with buds!!! LOL

 

[DingusKhan]

Good to know, I hope to grow something that needs support soon.

These are couple early pics, first is some LST after she was mainlined, thanks to nugbuckets, but also nebula, as I decided to use her version of mainlining which cut a week off veg. The other two are shortly after transplanting into the DWC, I also jammed four more plants in soil amongst the DWC buckets, just to see if they would make it. They have!
