Treepot-Pop: bag removal + watering timing

[figologist]

I water with fertilizer and other nutrients at 6 weeks or so. I pull the bag back, use a turkey baster, probably 2 fills per 4x9 which I think is around 3 ounces. I close the bag back with the file band and back to the grow room, is been 2 weeks and there has not yet been another need for water them. I leave the bags on as long as possible. Less water loss and less chances to overwater and rot it out. Less places for fungus gnats to lay their devil spawn.

file band?

Thanks for the tip, but my fig pops are way too big for solo cups, lol.

You gotta go get some bigger sheetz cups

Ive done that with my figpops, just pop a few holes in the bottom and i put water in the solo cup and put the bag in there. works

Works like a charm. Keeping things simple always works.

Yes it is, it has its own distinct leaves also. It is a nice tree I have 2 cherry cordial trees. This year I started cherry pie, from sacred origin which is doing well so far too

file band?

The rubber bands that legal people use for their files. They are huge rubber bands.
