You say you built it but it looks like a carbon copy of this (plant stand)[https://www.amazon.com/Wooden-Display-Storage-Outdoor-96x95x25Cm/dp/B076QB2P7N/ref=mp_s_a_1_11?keywords=wooden+plant+stand&qid=1563058607&s=gateway&sr=8-11] that is being sold on amazon.
Looks like this one here.
Pot/Planter
Soil / Perlite mix (70/30)
Nutrients
pH test kit
Lights
Should be around ~$100 and good for 1 medium plant or 2 small plants.
I spent like 30 minutes on that list for y'all newbs. When you could have just gone through the sidebar and/or used the search function. Somebody better upvote me.
Thanks. The planter is from here. The ferns and mosses I collected locally for free.
No, Amazon!
Amazon It's really quite small so eventually they'll need to be moved (if I don't kill them before that, lol), but it works perfectly for now.
Edit: fixed link
I’ve always wondered who the target demographic is for this Trump chia pet. Thanks for answering that question for me 😝
I found it HERE on AMAZON:

Thanks! They are from Amazon, and they come with drainage holes and little mesh screens included.

Something like this fits the above description perfectly. The Chinese seem to love plants and Obama.
First grow.
This took 2-3 months. Seems like I ran into a number of first-timer pitfalls along the way. Good learning experience though.
Can't wait. So god damn tired of shady, undependable hook ups.
Edit 2:
Photos of my setup.
Edit 1:
Some have asked about my setup. This is about everything. This is my first grow so take my suggestions with a cup of salt but this stuff has worked well for me.
Tent:
Zero complains. Very happy with this. It just fits perfectly into a closet (had to remove the hanger bar though).
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004U6WCMY
Air
Carbon filter:
The inside of my tent stinks. I smell absolutely nothing outside. Don't get caught. Get a good carbon filter. Maybe not this one, but something.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004FVJK60
Inline fan:
I hand this outside the tent. No need to take up any space or add any heat inside the tent.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002JQ14F8
Variable xformer for fan control:
This allows me to control the noise and airflow. Every other fan controller made the fan buzz. This thing is quality built. I keep it around 50v.

Circulation fans:

DWC
Bucket top net pots:

Air pump:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002JPEVMC
Airline:
The black just prevents light from getting into my res.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001D4XTUU
Air stones:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0050HJ7Q6
Check valves:
You NEED these. Many airlines are thin enough that if the power goes out or a hose becomes disconnected, capillary action might permit water to back-flow into your electrical air pump and/or just flood your room. Don't take chances when a .50 cent valve will protect you. There are some horror stories in the aquarium hobby about this. Note, even if the air pump is higher than your res, capillary action can pull the water up through the air hose. This is the same principle that allows 100ft trees carry water from the roots to the canopy.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00977J508
Lighting
Lights:
Word of warning. Start off a good distance between the lights and your canopy. These product more light than you think and I have burned and cooked plants from keeping these too close. They don't product a ton of heat or anything. I think it's just too much light if they aren't a good foot or so away from the canopy. I assumed I could practically lay LEDs on top of my canopy. Not so.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FGFLCXS
Adjustable ropes for lights:
Chains work, these are just faster/easier to adjust.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0098R0600
Tools
Temp/humidity sensors:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0013BKDO8
pH pen:
I used to do chemical reagent tests (I have tons of aquariums so I had it laying around). Never again. A pen is fucking awesome for dialing in pH every morning. Get one!
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EQISYQO
Pruning snips:
These are great. Sharp as fuck and solid.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00004SD76
Training wire:
What I use for my scrog screen and early training before the screen goes in. Also good for random shit that's temporary enough I don't want to waste a zip tie.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001EXJ652
Nutes/Water changes
Pond pump:
This is another must have! I've been using these for a while now to handle water changes in my aquariums. It's also awesome for mixing nutes before they go into your DWC. I drop one in a bucket without a hose attached and then just dump all my nutes and such in. The pump does all the mixing. Then I adjust the pH a little. Give the pump about 10-20 seconds to mix my pH up or down in and test again. I don't have to worry my pH adjustment isn't probably mixed yet. I makes the mixing process so easy and fast. I also use these to pump out my res once the scrog screen is in place.

Root protectant:
One of my early problems was with brown algae. This cleared it right up after a week.

No guess work. I know exactly how many ml I'm adding.

I showes him one very similar on amazon and then he designed it and built it from scratch. Here's a similar one on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Wooden-Display-Storage-Outdoor-96x95x25Cm/dp/B076QB2P7N/ref=mp_s_a_1_15?keywords=plant+shelf&qid=1566662094&s=gateway&sr=8-15
I am also old and remember my French buddy sometimes producing giant balls of delicious black hash "from Morocco". He would pinch bits off like it was clay and roll big spliffs. That's something I never see at dispensaries, I guess there are more efficient ways to process it now.
I purchased a set of bubble bags like these:
https://www.amazon.com/iPower-GLBBAG5X8-5-Gallon-Extractor-Waterproof/dp/B006C6NY3Q
The ice method seems messy and labor intensive, I'm considering this dry ice method for my first run:
http://www.growweedeasy.com/dry-ice-hash
If anyone has advice I would love to hear it. It would be neat to reduce my cabinet full of trim and B quality bud to something much more concentrated and delicious.
VIVOSUN 48"x24"x60" Mylar Hydroponic Grow Tent with Observation Window and Floor Tray for Indoor Plant Growing 2'x4' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DXYMQ9M/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_dx13BbGGT8164
VIPARSPECTRA Reflector-Series 300W LED Grow Light Full Spectrum for Indoor Plants Veg and Flower https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01B4GQ6MO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Hz13BbPVVN2TK
This light is good for 2 plants but you’ll eventually want to add a second for your tent. You definitely can’t fill the tent with just this light, but it’ll get you started.
iPower 2-Pack 1/8 Inch 8-Feet Long Adjustable Heavy Duty Rope Clip Hanger, Reinforced Metal Internal Gears,150lb Capacity https://www.amazon.com/dp/B018WIOEDA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_wA13Bb58ZJ5GD

https://www.oregonsonly.com/samples/
These are great nutrients and basically foolproof. This free sample kit will get you through 4 plants full grows. I love these nutrients and even now use them in a reservoir (which people claim you can’t do but works great).
Dr.meter 0.1pH PH002 High Accuracy pH Meter/pH Pen Tester with ATC LCD 0-14 pH Measurement Range (PH002 pH Meter for Water) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00PU0W35K/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_fI13BbNRES1BK
That will get you started on your first grow or two. I recommend auto blue mystic from nirvana for your first run. They are very low smell while growing so you can get by without a carbon filter. They’re autos so you can leave the light on 24/7, and they finish fast. Also turns out a great finished product.
https://www.nirvanashop.com/marijuana-seeds/815-blue-mystic-autoflower.html
Less than $40 for 5 seeds and very discrete shipping.
When you have a bit more $ you can add on additional items. Eventually you’ll want to upgrade to PFD sun boards or quantum boards, but you’ll probably want to get a fan and filter first:
6" Inline Fan - 395 CFM Exhaust Duct Fan, Built-In Speed Controller, ETL Listed, Pre-Wired 6 FT Grounded Cord - Great Use In Grow Tent With Carbon Filters, Light Fixtures, Intake. Fits 6 Inch Ducts. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01L0D0UEQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_TM13Bb5170NC1
Activated Charcoal Carbon Filter 6" x 16", Up to 400 CFM, Premium Grow Tent Odor Scrubber, 1.8" Extra Thick Layer of Top Grade Activated Australian Virgin Charcoal-Great for Hydroponics and Growing https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M0VN4I5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_qN13BbEH9AG9W
Maybe you can upgrade to a 2x4 tray with reservoir so you can automate feeding.
If you don’t want autoflowers you can just do 12/12 from seed for faster harvest. https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-how-to-grow-cannabis-from-seed-under-12-12-lighting-n330
But I really recommend doing the auto blue mystic for your first round or two.

Crap. Now I want a Chia pet. This is all your fault!

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00R71FGYU?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_pd_title
These are the exact ones I purchased.
It's a bit more traditional, but I purchased this one from Amazon and like it a lot. It holds quite a few plants, and you can customize how it's assembled to some extent. It's decent quality and the assembly took about 10 minutes tops.
Used about an ounce of dried trim from my GG#4 harvest. Dried Overnight.
Pretty happy with the results given I only paid $30 for the bags.
If anyone is looking for the specific brand I used it's this one

"Loose butthole" haha ok you watch too much TV.
Anyway, local nursery in Portland is where I get mine, but anyone selling vegetable starts and that type of thing should have crappy 4 inch pots for sale or even giving them away. I haven't actually had to buy them in years since once you have them they last forever, but I know my local hydro store sells the small ones for 39 or 45 cents...they look like this but a bit bigger. Those ones are 24 cents but you have to buy way too many online to make it worth it.
Yes everyone runs into bumps, you just want to learn from other people's mistakes...even with having hundreds of growers helping you, you will still run into unexpected shit--that's why you want to at least do the easy stuff correctly right away, it will save you time and get you a lot more product in the end, kid! Mistakes in the first couple weeks will fuck your shit up a lot more than mistakes in the last 3 weeks.
This one isn't as wide, but it's on Amazon: Leisure Season PS6117 7-Tier Plant Stand https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CHOFBSI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_5bONxbZNKR9N9
If bamboo is ok this one is way cheaper:

At least this will give you some keywords to look for! :)
Here it is for $8.88
I use them. Here is my container garden. I'll be buying 20 more for my hot peppers.
I like them a lot. I would definitely recommend them. I buy mine from Amazon and with free shipping from amazon prime, I get 5 for about $9.
Start small. It'll save you money, let you get your feet wet, and help you learn how to grow better, and then you can buy bigger.

So for about $420 (heh), you can get your foot in the door and start growing. This is a nice setup too, you can probably save $100 by shopping around, buying used, or doing-it-yourself. I've left off a few odds and ends like dryer duct, Fiskers for trimming, weed fabric pins for low-stress training, pitcher for watering, Mason jars for storage, but you can likely find those or suitable replacements around the house without spending money.
I also have a Raspberry Pi 3 ($43) with Sense Hat ($37) and metal case ($15) in each of my grow tents to log temperature/humidity and other things. I'm interested in eventually using the GPIO functionality to water my plants too. Not critical, but definitely a nice thing to have, especially if you're the hacker type. If you go this route, you might look at raspiviv.com too.

I'm glad I bought a good intro setup because I still use it now that I've upgraded. I now have a 3' x 3' GG Shorty tent with HLG 300 LED for flower, a 2' x 2.5' GG Shorty tent with two 400W Roleadro COB's for veg, and my "intro package" is now my germination/cloning tent (and drying tent too since several people suggested that too). Being able to have three tents (germination -> veg -> flower) working simultaneously is increasing my output quite sharply. I'm doing this to help a relative with cancer, so you may not need to go quite as crazy as I did.
You mentioned using 35+ gs (~1.25 oz) a month. You probably aren't going to be able to grow that much given the constraints of tent size and light wattage (plus being a first-time grower! You'll learn a lot!). So once you get used to it, you'll probably want to buy more stuff. Marijuana isn't addictive, but growing marijuana absolutely is.
Once you've got your hardware, the variable cost is seed (~$10), soil (~$5), nutrients (~$20), and electricity (~$30). From that, I'm going to estimate you can grow ~1.5 ozs (you can do more as you learn more though). So you're looking at ~$40/oz after you've made the initial hardware investment.
Hope this helps. Depression, cancer, and everything else can just go suck it.
lol Yeah, they're a thing. The card is what really makes it though! Good job, sis!
They are also from amazon

Chia Donald Trump Freedom of Choice Pottery Planter https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01G988ZRG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_iOrtzb4G4T52B
I get to keep them in the bags! I got them from amazon, they're specifically made to grow potatoes, so there is a little flap to check on the roots and get them out! They make cheaper ones without the flap. The nice thing about them is that they're easily to fold up and put away when the growing season is over.
My whole garden is on my balcony, so I understand needing to make the most out of the space. My FAVORITE thing are these planters but they're pretty spendy. I also have a couple of these (if you're interested, wait until the price drops to $25, it happens all the time, only suckers pay $40) which I'm going to use for my flowers and tomatoes once they're big enough. If I had unlimited funds for my garden I would totally buy a vertical stacker and a mobile garden, plus like a million of these pots to go around my balcony!
I have a 3-shelf and a 4-shelf(pictured) and love them both. Waiting to purchase some for our north side windows. I've also purchased them for gifts and there a big hit!

Welcome to world of gardening peppers, albeit as a hobby. So lets start off with the basics. You should check out the growing megathread sticky post and/or the wiki, since both sources might already answer questions you might have.
For seeds I like to use pepperlover.com or pepperjoe.com(new management), since it has yielded high germination rates, around 90% and pretty quickly too. Its advised to not buy seeds from eBay or Amazon since a lot of them are not true to species or might be very old. With the vendors mentioned above, you can easily e-mail them if you run into any seed issues, such as poor germination rate, not true to species (mistakes labeling do happen), diseased seeds, etc. They are quick to respond and are very nice. They also normally send out random "free packets of seeds" along with your order, so you get to try different varieties.
Since you're seeds are still on the way, per your post. I would start with a fabric pot/grow bag. I would order a Smart Pot or Root Pouch. If you're going for something with handles you might want to go with the Root Pouch option, my Smart Pots ripped, you're not supposed to use the handles when the pot is full, which defeats its purpose. Since they're more forgiving than hard pots. With hard pots you run the risk of getting root bound, which can plug your drainage holes and in turn that would cause root rot since the water doesn't have a path drainage after the roots block up the drainage holes. With fabric bags the whole pot is built for drainage.
Then you decide on what type of soil/potting mix you want to use. Each of them have their positives and negatives. A lot of people start off with a base potting mix as a base, then blend in other ingredients to get the desired soil.
I use:
Other than that, germinate your seeds via the instructions included with the seeds and then transfer them to your pot. Just practice a lot of discipline in watering. The main issue with new growers is either over watering or root bound. Both are addressed when using fabric pot/grow bags.
Just keep in mind all potting mixes/soils will eventually become nutrient depleted and would need supplementation. A lot of people here use tomato feed or the Fox Farm trio.
If there's anything else just post it to the subreddit or do some research online.
Here's what I have so far and my quick write up.
My dad started the tomato plant that I am using in soil. He had too many for his garden, so I used that instead of starting one from seed in rockwool. My next plant will be started from seed.
I picked up a 5 gal bucket and Lid from Home Depot. <$5.
I cut a hole in the Lid to fit the 3" Net Cups. I put one right in the center. I quickly found out the cup it too small to support the plant so I had to use a support stick. I just bought this 6" net cup bucket lid.
The plant is supported in Expanded Clay balls. I chose this material as apposed to 'Hydroton, Coco coir, Viagrow stones, pearlite...' because from my very little research I found the clay to be the most environmentally friendly and easiest to use, disclaimer: I could be very wrong here.
The nutrient solution used General Hydroponics Maxi Grow. Simple to use, add X scoops per X gal of water. I am about to switch to Maxi Bloom. She is flowering and starting to produce fruit. I do now know when the best time to switch solutions. I am learning by experiment here.
To keep the nutrient solution oxygenated, I used this Air pump,two of of these air stones, and tubing. Any items will do, I used this products because I know an employee of Penn Plax and got them for cost $. Any pump will work, I got a two outlet pump for future expansion.
You should also be sure to have the correct pH for your particular plant. Here is a chart and a great site. I used this pH Test Kit and pH adjust.
It's that simple. Right now the plant is outside and gets about 8 hours of sun. I plan on keeping it outside as long as possible, then will bring it in and have to choose a light source for it.
tl;dr What I used for my first DWC tomato plant experiment. Step 1: Click all links above. Step2: Buy. Step 3: Tomatoes
Edit: Also, Watch this video
It looks very healthy right now. In your second pic, it looks like there two limbs that reaching up and wanting to climb but you don't have anything to help it along. You need to make a decision as to whether you want the leaves to climb upward or hanging down. Perhaps, a plant hanger?

From Amazon !
I used the All in One Mushroom Grow Bag https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NHYUMQ8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_6hlhDbKMHQC3V
I have mine on bamboo shelves (from amazon, they are slatted). The shelves are light and easy to move around!
https://www.amazon.com/SONGMICS-Customizable-Bathroom-Shelving-UBCB93Y/dp/B01G6QZ7KO/ref=mp_s_a_1_7?keywords=bamboo+shelves&amp;qid=1562171698&amp;s=gateway&amp;sr=8-7
These keep my nice bookshelves from getting ruined and they’re easy to move outside when it’s warm. Plus it’s not terribly expensive!
Here is the bag.
So basically once fully colonized just lay it flat down and slice the top open so they can grow out? Should I have it in a fruiting chamber and be giving it mist and fanning as well during this period? Then dunk for 24hr and put it back in?
Thanks for the help

Here is some info on my grows/setups to help you figure it out.
Might as well get these net pots that you can just place on top of your bucket so you dont have to worry about making one and risking light leaks.
Might need tubing for the air pump, not sure if it comes with the pump or you didn't include it in the post, but I'd go with black instead of clear.
Also, get yourself some cal-mag with those nutrients. I just started my first DWC grow too but I also bought Canna Rhizotonic and liquid silicon to go with the nutrients at the suggestion of a few on this sub.
If you want to get reallllllly in depth on full spectrum LED's, this site has a lot of information on it and their list of best panels to go with, even though I didn't go with any of them and just got the Mars 300 anyway.
And don't forget your trichome scope!
you could also get those hanging pottery nets and put the bowling balls in them

I don't much get the raised beds. Why not eliminate the cost of the wood and just build up the soil the same height over the entire area you have the raised beds? Soil is cheaper than cedar in my area.
&#x200B;
I moved to an area that does not have good soil, so I was forced to explore options. I opted for air pots instead of raised beds. A 7 gallon bag will hold 2-3 tomato plants. Filled with organic soil, I'm at $6 per bag. It was 1/2 the cost of a raised bed. I'm also plan to move in less than 2 years, and these will travel with me much easier than a raised bed.
Ive had my roots out of the water for 2-3 hrs during a few rez changes due to upgrades w/o issues, aslong as the roots werent crunchy dry, they should bounce back, but it may stunt them a bit.
The net pots I use clip onto the bucket much like the lid does, and they are a ton more sturdier than having to cut out a standard lid to fit an insert. I was able to pick mine up at my local gardening store in the hydroponics section or amazon.

I am adding this to my wish list! So cute!
Proper trimming and branch management...grow it upwards not outwards
Look into a DWC bucket system, they make 5 gal bucket lids that are hydroponic planters...Found on Amazon. Some even have a built in tomato / pepper cage that's about 3 ft tall.
Just need a power source for an aquarium air/bubble pump and some sun or T5 lamps. Even an Apt balcony works
As far as lights go, I have seen amazing results with these while growing coral (Aquarium). For 130 bucks an 8 lamp t5 High Output fixture that has a broad color range is a steal

something like this
I've been using Big Bag Beds with great results. They are on their second season and have survived one flood.
http://www.amazon.com/Smart-Pots-Big-Fabric-Raised/dp/B007BVKDZI/ref=sr_1_1?s=lawn-garden&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1427347315&amp;sr=1-1&amp;keywords=Big+bag+bed
Yea I've been looking at them.
Zone 9B (Orlando)
I've been using some smaller fabric pots for about a year now. They're great because they're lightweight and flexible! However, I've noticed a lot of... either moss or mold on the outside of them as things have been heating up this year. My plants are all outside and I water them every day, so it may be that I am keeping them so wet (I'm doing flowering plants), maybe your herbs will do better?
I'm barely a novice gardener so I'm not sure what could be done to prevent this, or if it's not common and I just messed up! But that has been my experience with fabric planters so far. All the reviews on Amazon said they had no trouble with mold so I went for it! It might just be how often I water my plants/letting them sit in the rain/the extreme sunlight they receive on my very very sunny balcony.
Good luck!!
EDIT: Here are the pots I got: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B013JFHMNK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1
That's roughly 1.93 gal volume for your pot. I would consider something like http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002JUOWB2/ref=s9_simh_gw_p86_d0_i1?ie=UTF8&amp;fpl=fresh&amp;pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&amp;pf_rd_s=&amp;pf_rd_r=1JE5RBZ72WT91ZGBRMGB&amp;pf_rd_t=36701&amp;pf_rd_p=439659db-41fa-4a3b-8e0f-31b9d08e4568&amp;pf_rd_i=desktop.
They do! I don't have much to say about them right now since I bought them a week ago based on other recommendations. So far, so good though! They're much sturdier than I had anticipated.
They are called SmartGrow pots. Everyone on Amazon swears by them. They have a great range of sizes, I just wanted something large enough to give the sprouts a chance to become true trees.
Thanks!
Yes, I'm definitely lacking in table space. It's top of the list for next summer!

I only buy pots with drainage. I always see nice pots at nurseries and whatnot but they're always out of my price range, so for now I pretty much only buy online unless I'm getting cheapo terra cotta from Home Depot. Here are some of the ones I've gotten online:
Set of five bowl shaped ones. There's another listing I saw for the same ones that come with trays but that option was more expensive
Set of five super tiny ones that I'm using for some tiny ones that I've propagated before they move on to bigger pots eventually
This one is also tiny but works well for things like small echeverias and cuttings that will also eventually sized up into a bigger pot
This one and this one are the ones I have from this page. Prices on many of these pots seem to fluctuate a lot so they were quite a bit cheaper when I got them to what they're charging now, but I have seen them listed on ebay and whatnot as well. Probably makes more sense to buy the set if you like them and you'll use em all.
Home Depot has a few options for cheap glazed pots. I have a plain grey one from there that was about $5-6 I think.
I also have this one from ebay and it seems to be relatively common as I've seen it quite a bit on this subreddit, but I wouldn't recommend it or anything similar for succulents. I overlooked when purchasing it that the drainage hole isn't in the middle of the pot on the bottom but rather off to the side, plus the tray doesn't come off of the pot so the whole drainage situation isn't great. It's a pain to water the plant that I have in that pot as I have to constantly tip the pot to get the water to get out of the saucer.
Hope this helped in some way. Honestly if I had more money I would probably be getting all of my pots from nurseries and etsy but these will have to do for the time being!
I have two sugar pumpkin seedlings, about 5 inches apart, in a six-inch-deep mound. They're doing well and I'd like to keep them both, but do they need more space to make it work? They're in a Big Bag Bed filled with Black Gold organic potting mix. I have two cowpea plants and a zucchini plant in the same bed, all of which are doing well also. It seems like there's room to maneuver.
All of the above were grown from seed. I'm really, really new at this, so any tips/advice/snark will be appreciated.
This also.
Upvote for the Ozarks! My gf and I just got back from a camping trip on the Jacks Fork River in the Missouri Ozarks. We go down there multiple times every year for floats and fishing. Simply breathtaking.
I used smart pots last year. I learned it's hard (read: impossible) to over-water them if your soil drains well. It's great when we get too much rain but a chore when you have to remember daily supplemental watering during dry spells. I'm currently still using smart pot's big bag bed. It's pretty nifty if you want a raised bed that is removable.
I'm very fond of Cornell's growing guides. Here is their guide for potatoes. I followed most of that same advice with the fabric pots, but halved most of the spacing and depth measurements.
Here's my entire process if you're interested:
I had been using Pro Mix Ultimate Organic Vegetable and Herb Mix, which was 2CF for $19.99, but they don't seem to carry it anymore. I liked it because it's kind of halfway between normal garden soil and potting mix and has mycorrhizal fungi added, but anything not too dense would probably work. I also sprinkle in some all-purpose organic fertilizer and add a few handfuls of peat moss to increase the acidity.
Depending on the size of your pieces, you should be able to fit another 1-2 pieces in the middle of the ring.
Water according to the Cornell site. I've got a dripper in each so I kind of just run that weekly.
This is only my second year doing it this way so I wouldn't yet call it tried and true, but I did get a splendid yield last year.
Edit: Sorry, I kind of snuck the answer to your question into that wall of text so I've bolded the relevant part.
TBH I've done hydro, a bit of coco, synthetics in soil, and organics in both soil and coco. From what I've found, the best way to get through to harvest with minimal issues is to run Autoflowers in amended soil. Something like Roots Organic Original Soil or Foxfarm Ocean Forest will get you one helluva start, there's enough soil to get the plant fed through the first 30 days or so, it could get you through more/less time if you're using a bigger/smaller pot size. IE you could start your plant in a solo cup, transplant into a 2 or 3 gallon through veg, then drop that 2 or 3 gallon pot into a 5 gallon when it's time to flower. (I'm using autoflower timescale just for reference) The roots will grow through the smaller pot to reach into the soil that's in the bigger pot. This works because the fabric isn't what prunes the roots, it's the air that does the root pruning.
You can get a 5 pack of 2 gallon or 3 gallon Fabric Pots for ~$9or a 5 pack or 5 gallon or 7 gallon fabric pots for ~$10 on amazon.
&#x200B;
There are a few reasons I prefer growing with organic/amended soil, like:
&#x200B;
Obviously this is about what works best for you, and you may switch it up down the road to give something else a try, but this is what works for me.
Someone else mentioned it in your other post, but using your roof as a small garden would help take some of the heat load and provide you with some veggies if you're into that type of labor.
A few of these or something similar would probably suffice for the project.

Subtotal (14 items): $415.46 now... Am I missing anything else? This all look good?

I'm not sure what that term is. I injected spores into one of these:

And once the bottom was all covered in mycelium, I mixed it all up.
I've used this one successfully. I followed the directions until it wasn't getting enough air. Tons of aerial mycelium then fuzzy side pinning. Once it started pinning I cut the bag away completely and stuck it in a bin with a clear top upside down. It fruited from all sides like a giant brf cake. I just misted it a few times a day.
Seemed to work really well. I don't think it would have fruited as well if I left it in the bag.
Now my favorite is to make grain jars. Then mix them in a coir and worm castings mix once colonized.

This website has all the info you're going to need for your jade plant.
You can start a new plant from each one of those leaves if you wanted to. To do that, I would cut off a leaf at its base, apply a root starter, and then plant it in a succulent mix soil. A little plant should pop up within two weeks. However, if you're already seeing new growth just plant that Larry into some soil like /u/dirtyhippielady said.
Jade plants are absolute tanks so I have little doubt she'll survive. Always err on the side of too little water when it comes to Jades though, they don't need much. If you're worried about drainage I would recommend a smart pot. Cheers🍻
Not really, this is year number 2. I put each plant in a 5 gallon grow bag. I just didn't know if they were going to produce flowers this year since I haven't added fertilizer . Somehow two more have popped up away from the bags so it has spread quite a bit. I'm also finally getting some Gulf Fritillary caterpillers!
Easiest method would be to use a grow bag
A more difficult approach is to have a separate grow bed for just mint. Otherwise, the roots will take over your system.
Try Smart Pots! They work great, you can put them anywhere, they don't damage anything, and they're easy to fold up and store during winter and when you move!
As a renter, these are the best!

I believe this is what you require
Here's the basic parts list to build a bucket like this:
Lots of this stuff can be had cheaper at a home improvement or pet store. Check around. You'll need a soldering iron (I like my adjustable 40w), a drill and drill bits up to 3/4" (I like step bits for work on plastic), a heatgun or lighter to shrink that heatshrink tubing. An infrared thermometer is nice to have and can tell you the temp of your nutrients, the plant itself, your lights, etc...Just make sure to calibrate it first, all the cheap ones are inaccurate by at least a few degrees.
Lol whoops ignore that last post. Thought u meant the soil for some reason.
You mean the pots or the U stakes?
These are the 7 gallon fabric pots I have been using for a long time now. Much cheaper than name brand smart pots. Was kind of tough to find a big enough runoff tray for them. But I did find some (14" I think) and they're super heavy duty and will last multiple grows.

That bag of stakes will last you a VERY long time. They're also nice for putting the strain name on.

Yes thanks! I am definitely going to be going with the fabric smart pots :) They seem too good to be true! These are the ones I have in mind
I was planning on using simply tap water. I hadn't considered the chlorine in the water, my water is notoriously high in chlorine. I might have to re-consider what type of water I use, or perhaps look into your solution.
Thanks for the tips!

Thank you for the reply. What's the name of the full-size papaya on a dwarf tree? I grabbed a papaya plant with two other little siblings attached to it for $5 from a Thai lady in August and got them through winter here (North Florida) and just recently planted them in the ground about a month ago. At the time of my purchase I didn't know anything about papayas but then read about the different flower types and that they don't transplant very well. I'm noticing two of the three plants haven't established a strong root zone and wobble pretty easily once I transplanted them so I can see why they say they don't transplant well, and I can see from your comment that this has probably happened to you as well. Hopefully they'll make it through, but if not I'll have learned my lesson and will be ready to try some of your techniques for next spring (starting them in the fall for a spring transplant).
I'm looking for the large size papayas as my wife loves to use them green for papaya salads ("som tam", she's from Thailand), but don't have a ton of yard space, so if you can recommend any dwarfs that grow well for you I'm all ears.
Regarding the fabric pots, do you think the roots will penetrate through these fabric pots? I use these a bunch for other plants and I'd be open to just throwing them into the ground come spring next year if that means they'll have a better chance of surviving transplant. I just don't know if the roots can penetrate these well enough or not. I guess I could see if any of my current potted plants in these have been able to establish roots on the bottom side successfully or not. If not, I have a meat tenderizer (this guy) that could probably make some pretty decent holes! haha.
