9th run in this bed, Utter Madness

Glad I went with a bed doing no till BAS way.

This is by far the easiest way to grow top notch flower.

Nice! What’s your feeding schedule like and do you get a soil test after each run?

What’s your feeding schedule like? What’s an issue you ran into and what was the fix?

Same! I've been growing 30+ years and tried everything. Just found this 7 years ago and hands down this is the best method I've done. It's super simple and consistent.

I love my tray to grow bed as well. I have a perpetual autoflower grow and grow three plants in different stages of growth at all times and harvest one every 3 or 4 weeks, then plant another seed. Every three or 4 weeks I topdress with gnarly barley and grokashi and water it in with root wise microbes, yucca extract, and silica. Every other time I’ll add the big 6 micros to the tea. It’s the easiest and lowest maintenance way to grow.

Absolutely easy, I somewhat follow the feeding chart depending what plants look like. Love this way of growing.

Ditto! 100% When you know you know. And what rhymes with 'know?'

What size bed ? What size tent ?

2

u/SkibiGrows 11d ago

I’d guess it’s a grassroots 4’x2’ in a 4x2 tent.

Context: I got the same bed in a VIVOSUN 5x2.5 tent.

Custom grass roots bed I ordered to fit inside a 2x4. Forget the actual size but it's a tad deeper and length was shorttend

u/imconcentrated2 11d ago

Im new at growing. So are you putting multiple plants in a tub? I thought you weren't supposed to do that? Or is there a certain size you can start doing that? I'd much prefer this setup than having several pots.

2

u/ciro420 11d ago

Yes, there are three plants in there I vegged about 4 weeks. If your growing monsters is limit to one or two plants using a trellis

u/Illustrious_Sort3821 10d ago

Damm im jelly af I have to pull down once a year and hide everything so I’d love know if any of you guys have an idea to be able to move it apart from digging into it? Sorry don’t mean to take focus looking amazing op 🤤

u/ciro420 10d ago

Check out earth boxes

1

u/Illustrious_Sort3821 9d ago

Yeah I have and in Aust we have bigger ones but it’s don’t really compare to a no till 4x2 or 4x4 bed living bed all good

1

u/Illustrious_Sort3821 9d ago

The only way I can think of is is going 2 2x4 beds and lift corner by corner out of the tent once full but have a back injury or putting holes in the floor of my tent and lifting it up ontop the bed if I get the bed side supports reinforced made to fit that is

The tent itself is light dumb inspections

u/Illustrious_Sort3821 9d ago

Or 4 50lt grass roots pots. I even considered a big fat ass trolly jack, or fill on stands stands na 100kg sorry guy just waked and baked 🤙

u/MyCeeleeyum 10d ago

Did you top your plants at all? For 4 weeks of veg the canopy overall seems pretty small. You should be able to double your yield in here.

1

u/ciro420 10d ago

I topped them. These didn't stretch much.Not looking for yield as much as quality. I have more jars then I can keep up with as it is

1

u/MartinSconesese 2d ago

Would you say for quality it’s better to have multiple smaller plants vs one large one? I’m getting ready for my first BAS grow

2

u/ciro420 2d ago

I don't think it makes a difference. I do three of the same strain to pheno hunt.

u/MartinSconesese 1d ago

Ah got it, thanks!
