That's essentially a dutch bucket system without a pump and timer. I like timers, because I'm very forgetful.

That Promix is expensiveeeee wow now I remember why I just buy regular potting mix soil for 10-15$ for 2 cubic ft and then just add worm castings perlite and vermiculite much cheaper that way

I'm soil additive hunting been looking at stuff for when I transplant into the ground... I'm gonna buy 10 bags of regular potting soil mix 80$ then buy a bag of worm castings 3-5 pounds probably 15$ then going to get a bag of this pro-mix it's not that bad for 2 cubic ft 15$ to mix all that with a bag of vermiculite and perlite 15$+15$ and mix all together and throw the 40 gal tub of natural super soil compost that I have next to the shed so I'll probably end up spending let's see soil 80+promix15+ worm casts 15 vermiculite etc +15=125$ ~150$ into the dirt that I'll use growing 10 plants possibly 15 depends we will see but gotta month or so to get the holes filled etc before I transplant them into there permanent homes
Right, prices are going up big time on soils. My local hook up was so convenient at $20 a bag and just down the road, go in there the other day and same bag of soil, Strawberry Fields, was now almost $30 out the door. then I see on HTG Supply they have Roots Organics on sale for $20.95 for their 1.5cu ft bags I love... drive down the half hour, the dude rings it up and goes, $28. I'm like, wrong.. it's on sale, look on your site. He tries to tell me that's a price if we ship it and you pay freight. ********, how come it's the only one priced like that. Made the guy call his manage, he says, if we advertise it for $20.95 we have to honor it. It's still wrong on their site, going down tomorrow to buy 2 bags.. lol.
when you find deals on things right now ya gotta stock up, shelves are getting bare in places on certain things.
Big, my plants are suffering from not giving them calmag and I think the new light was to close and I bleached them a bit.. thanks for the help.. lights been raised.. plants been dosed... hehe

Where you from??? HTG supply stores about a hour or so from me in the Carolinas I used to get soil from a guy that had a greenhouse and stuff but that was years ago before I got in a accident and then doing big 20+ plant outdoor grows got put on the back burner to recovering from the broken bones ripped muscles and pain medication addiction.... but the soil at htg was just so expensive I would just build my own because just added up at lowes around 150$ for about 20 cubic feet of a good mixture with castings peat most perlite and organic compost not too bad

they will start going outside when the weather is warmer…outside all day then back inside under the lights for a few hours
we try and time the outside light with the inside light so when they go outside they will continue to veg
i am guessing they will go outside permanently somewhere around May 15 to May 32nd…
