Is the Cherry bomb a female or reg? I was eyeing those too. :grin: I am not sure what size pots you are going into. But I have found in coco. You really don’t need bigger than a 5 gallon unless you may be shooting for a lb.

That is a marijuana induced stoner project if ever. That is just epic with baffles too. Gotta hand it to ya, $$$ saver. I seen someones else’s attempt but they cut an access door and admitted they wouldn’t go that route again. I don’t have to worry about the frozen soil part…lol EVER!

Once you start growing to you continue to use calmag or is the soaking all it needs?

The washing is mostly to remove the fine dust. The 10lb brick is supposed to make 13 gallons. I shifted out 10 gallons and the rest was dust material or just to fine. That is the stuff you don’t want. It can cause root damage from being so wet for to long.

Well I only do 4 plants and going all in. I kind of need to figure it out so I know what to expect from the next batch of soil. Right now I have approx 28 gallons of soil mix. So probably run 5 gallon bags so that way to have enough soil. I usually run 7 gallon but that would be tight on soil. It would leave no room for error.
