How full should the foil dish be?



1) Make sure you put the cake in the dish first.
2) Fill to the top of the dish with water.



Alright, thanks. Did em both, cake seems to have "drank" basically it all, so I'll add more tomorrow morning.

Hah.

Mr.Mazda knows what's up. If I write a tek and then someone comes in and hijacks my thread with pics and all sorts of shit-thems are fightin' words.

:shotsfired:

:rofl:

Fool came in with pics of plastic lids... jesus----that's too funny.

CBK-you just gonna take that?

Lol plastic lids are actually better than foil lids, to deny the fact would be trolling therefor you are trolling, and trolling is against the rules.

Before you make assumptions -you should go read my posts.

I don't troll-I don't even usually comment unless it's pertinent information or me and another member joking about something.
This is the exact reason Mazda mentioned me above-because of a comical string of posts we both engaged in on one of my own threads.

In all honesty-I agree that plastic lids are better in this scenario and never said anything about them not being more practical.

I thought it was funny that you came in with pics, etc... because...well...it was funny to me. :shrug:

Comebackkid, mrMazda and myself have been screwing with each other for quite a while.

So....

Not sure what you're trying to do here. :shrug:

To stay on topic:

Sure, plastic lids in my opinion would be better for this application.
However, what I believe comebackkid was trying to accomplish was a super-easy and cost effective way for a noob to bottom feed their cakes without having to buy any additional supplies.

There are a lot of teks on this forum that sort of "cater" to noobs that don't have certain advanced supplies or don't have the money to go purchase a lot of extra shit. (Not that plastic lids are super-expensive anyway... but you get my point, I hope...)

CBK made this tek with the intention to help someone who would like to/or needs to immediately bottom water their cakes and only has the equipment they currently had during their first grow to do it with....

and for that... I say it's great!

Plastic lids may be better, but that wasn't really the point I feel. This is a "you've got no excuse, bruh" sort of tek. And to me, it makes perfect sense.

I currently have a 66 quart monotub that I modified for when I use 6-7 quarts of spawn in it. It has a small plastic tube that I can fit an average sized bottle of water into that can bring water directly to the bottom of the substrate with ease. I recently used it to bottom feed a sub that had the most massive pinset I have ever seen off of any of my grows. This flush drank so much water, I thought I had to call off work for the entire flush so I could continually dump water into that son of a bitch...

With that being said-I'm all about ingenuity. But, I sort of felt like this tek was more for the person that wanted to bottom feed easily without buying any additional bullshittery...

:cheers:

Yeah, I know it's a sort of makeshift tek so there are no excuses for anyone NOT to have dishes for cakes.

All the points you bring up are valid.

So I got curious. The lids on wide mouth jars are 9 Cm(90MM) a lot of disposable petri dishes are around that, ones I am looking at getting are 100MM. When done they could be washed and soaked in bleach and rinsed thoroughly and then reused for this. You would also get 2 dishes out of one petri dish set. Great way to recycle "disposable" petri dishes.

I like the way you think. Are half petri dishes as deep as a widemouth lid as well? I was always under the impression that they were shallow little things.

The problem with these "alternatives" that really have no place on this tek are that as morty said this isnt a whats best tek its a damn foil bottom watering tek.
I can name a load of things around my house that I can use but its not in the spirit of the thread. Everyone has tin foil not everyone has petris or spare plastic lids.

My foil lids are awesome. My 3 cakes i didn't dunk and roll are some thirsty devils while they're growing my mushrooms drank a whole  lid tonight in 2 hours. I didn't have any other options this takes literally 1 minute per lid to make. Without this thread I literally would have had zero idea I should be doing this.  Awesome.

For the record. I just birthed 12 cakes today and made foil lid bowls for all of them. I totally approve and cant wait to see what happens for me.

Tbh I've got no problems with the alternatives in this thread. If petri dishes get the job done don't hesitate to let us know or post pics :awesomenod:
