Microgrow in a speaker box 2nd attempt

Wow ok much smaller than I thought lol
Yeah been wanting to get a few but when it comes time to pull the trigger I keep backing off lol
My soft pots haven’t let me down yet :thinking:
But I may order a few for my next grow I seen a few other grows using them and they definitely look like they are worth the $

Yea They are tiny but I wanted to give them a shot but so far so good for me.
It was 2 of these or 3 solo red cups lol.
Next year I will get maybe 2 ten gallon air pots for my tomatoes
This year I want to give those smart pots a shot for my veggies



the bend is better seen in this one.
The other has so much foliage but I’ve been hesitant to trim.

Looking great nice LST job
your doing great I’m watching you work I have a small 2x2x4 tent i use for
Starting and early veg but may do a couple small autos in it if your successful
Yeah that air pots are much better than solo cups @Dr.Mantis_Tobaggan_MD lol good choice
If you get the soft pots for veggies get some bigger ones like 15-25 gal I have a few tomatoes :tomato: plants in mine and a couple raised beds as well
They work great and if you put them directly on ground the roots will capillary feed from ground according to mfg
I use 5 gal for my mj still get big plants and know if people who have had 8 foot tall plants in 5gal smart pots so you be happy price is great :+1:

@Countryboyjvd1971 I would love to have 15 gallons.
I was gonna get a few but I spent my garden budget on smart pots and all the things necessary to make my oWn potting mix outside. I ran out of space filling my little space up with 5 and 7 gallons.
I might just get 2 10 gallons to see the difference and compare for next year.
Thankfully they are better priced than the airpots like you mentioned

I have a 2x2x4 also
But my space inside is limited
So I gave it to a buddy of mine with a 300watt led.
If anything happens there which hopefully soon it should.
I will be posting that as well to share my experience

You can get the soft pots in Amazon 5 five gallon for about 20$ look for the one made by the company 247 they make bigger ones as well for a bit more
Next year I may pick up one of the 100 gal size and put the tomatoes in that :blush:
I have two 300 watts in my little tent hahaha
Plenty of light in there for sure I have two small Gorilla glue plants I’ve been keeping small thinking about putting a scrog screenin that tent ? Maybe I’ll set that up today and switch to flower in a few weeks

Woohoo @Tonyb
You going to scrog that as well ?

Don’t think I’ll need too. It’s probably 1/3 of the way grow. Plus that box is tiny. Cash crop 5.0’s are tiny lol. Do you think I need one?

Those are the same ones I bought for my veggies outside lol
So far they seem to be doing great. I think I might end up getting some just to get some fatter tomatoes. The 5 gallon will surely limit the size of the tomatoes.

Damn thats looking great.
How big is your cabinet?
I want to try dwc but my main concern is stealth and I feel that the slight buzz from an air pump would take stealth out of the equation.

Dimension: 24" H x 16" W x 9.5" D

It has a buzz from the fans more than airstones tbh. I have a cash crop 5.0 that I switched lights in cuz the one it came with was 20 watts -o-… And a yield machine max ft version. I would suggest not ever getting a cash crop 5.0 or the dirt equivalent one either. Uniquehydroponics has better boxes at better prices. But hydro boxes are still really stealthy and quite.

Gave the ladies a haircut today.
Mainly so other areas get light and leaves aren’t pressed against the side.
Will post updates as they go along but hopefully all goes well.
3 leaves from one and 4 from another

Gotta dream big my friend lol. It’s my first grow too lol

Sorry for the long delay guys and gals
These ladies are flowering
Gave them haircuts a few times
Flowering has started
I didn’t note the date.
But when I saw the start I was ecstatic.
So far this is how the small speaker box held up.
When I noticed flowers I changed the lighting to
3x 100 watt led bulbs totaling 300watts.
This is the stronger lady
