Coco Hempy Transplant

Discussion in 'Growing Marijuana Indoors' started by LetGo, Sep 27, 2020.

  1. Had a bagseed while I waited for seed order to come in. I normally use 2 gallon hempy buckets but this plant is MASSIVE compared to what I normally grow and i know it wont last in 2 gallons.

    Questions/help needed.
    1. Ideas/tips on transplanting to 5 gallon hempy as I have never transplanted anything bigger than a coco solo cup and that even gets messy.
    2. How long would you let it sit in the 5 gallon before flipping to 12/12? 1 week? 2 week?


    For those who dont know hempy buckets. Has a whole 2 inch up the side for a resv at the bottom, only 1 small hole to drain water. Perlite bottom 3inches coco/perlite mix top.

    Using the KISS method, 7g maxibloom only. So far I am impressed from using my old stuff. Stalks bigger than a lighter EZ on 6 week from seed. Plan to keep my bought seeds on something to boost them higher to the lamp. Wont be cloning the bag seed.

    TIA
     
  2. I run 100% perlite herpies buckets.

    If the solo cup is well rooted, most of it will stay together.

    Careful with 7g maxibloom, I had nute buildup by the start of flower. Burned a ton of leaves.

  3. So far no nute burns w/ 7g, maybe a little to much N as its very dark green leaves.
    making sure at least 20% runoff

    and i am talking about a 2gallon to 5gallon, little nervous w/ size. was wondering if anyone had tips/tricks for larger pot transplants
     
  4. Here's how my 3.5 gallons looks at harvest.

    I transplant 1/2 gallon into 3.5 gallon. It's going to be messy.

    Haven't seen 2 gals to 5 gal transplant. My best guess it'll be messy.

  5. I only use a heavy 1/4 teaspoon the whole way through aside from bloom boosters and silica blast. 1 tsp =7grams to give you an idea. Less is more. Ya may wanna think about lowering your ppm a bit going into flower. Just my 2 cents. GL ~ vape
