I started a 1 liter liquor bottle grow on the coffee table, and thought I'd see if anyone else wanted to participate, but I haven't seen any responses yet.

Anyway, I thought I'd post progress here, in my own personal grow journal... and if anyone else catches on and would like to join me just jump on the train!

I know I said I was gonna do the 16oz cup grow, I'm thinking I wanna do something a bit different while still doing the 16oz cup grow. So, I decided I wanna try and grow in a liquor bottle. So, if anyone wants in, the rules are in an attatchment on the message in the coffee table forum.

I will be growing in soil, in a one liter Triple Sec bottle. I did not drill holes in the bottle for drainage, but I did include a layer of gravel between the top and bottom levels of soil, about 1/4 of the way from the bottom of the bottle. My seed is bagseed, and has been germinated for 5 days.

After filling the bottle with my soil I used a pencil to reach down the neck of the bottle and poke a small hole for my seed. After dropping the seed in with a pair of tweezers into the hole, I used the pencil to lightly cover the hole back up. I watered it with MG Planting and Transplant starting solution.

It will be on 12/12 from the start, under a 1 and a half foot sunlight spectrum flor.

I will post pics and keep you posted.

Thanks,
Metalchick :shocked:
 
Post pics! I want to see the plant shoot through the neck, that would be awesome.lol
 
OMG... It's actually doing what I want it to do... it's actually growing taller, the way I want.

I decided to put an oscilating fan over the bottle with the head pointed down the neck... that way the stem grows strong.

I also rigged a pretty ingeneous way of feeding it:
I used aquarium tubing and superglued it down a little past the soil level, and put some holes in the tubing so that water will fall on the surface too... It's pretty cool and it works really well!

Pictures soon.. I promise.

I was actually trying to figure out how to do this hydroponically, but I couldn't figure it out. I am working on that though, so we will see soon if it will work. I think I'm going to finish my building process of the hydroponic version on Friday or so.
