Minimum recommended” size means you should try to use a pot at least that big, so if you can’t find that exact size just get a bigger one. Additionally, it’s possible to grow plants in “too small” pots, but your watering and fertilizing schedule will be much more demanding if you want healthy plants and a great harvest. Give seedlings only a little water at a time, and pour it in a small circle around the base of the cannabis seedling.

Stills come in a wide variety of sizes. However, most craft stills will be between 3 gallons and 8 gallons. Have a think about how much moonshine you really need. days later the seedlings should be watered again. View the schedule below for an example watering timeline. The main advantage of stainless steel stills is that they more affordable. This is great if you are new to making moonshine, as you probably don’t have a huge budget. The downsides are that the sulfur compounds will stay in your moonshine and it doesn’t conduct heat as well. Every time, make sure to continue watering slowly in a circle until you get runoff water out of the bottom of the container. Make sure to remove runoff water so it doesn’t get re-absorbed through the bottom of the container. If you want to control this disease, you have to collect and get rid of all fallen leaves; this reduces new spores that could infect your plant.A sight glass lets you visually inspect the plates in your still’s column ensuring they are working correctly.

This overwatered cannabis seedling doesn’t have deficiencies, but it is already 4 weeks old and has barely grown. The cause is overwatering. Often when a cannabis seedling stays stunted or doesn’t get bigger, the grower needs to give water less often. As the plants grow or mature, nursery growers may step up the plant to another larger size pot. For instance, a #1 shrub may be stepped up to a #3 pot. It would be best if you used light-colored pots because it won’t absorb as much sunlight. Believe it or not, even though lemon trees like heat, their roots prefer to be cool.

2.) Transplant seedlings to final containers

I know many people say you don’t have to worry about pH in super soil, but that’s only if you’re starting with good water. You WILL get nutrient deficiencies if the pH of your water is too high or low and you don’t adjust it. I’ve learned this from experience. If your starting water is clean and in the 6.3-7.0 pH range, you probably don’t need to do anything. Sooty mold rarely kills your plants, but the insects that cause it can damage or destroy your plants.
