Great looking grow you got going!!!
So do you like the AutoPots?? I really want to make the switch to free myself from watering as much.
any regrets?

Day 72!
It’s truly been a journey with these Anvil in the autopot system, and it looks like they have one more curve ball for me. The big girl has been showing some serious Phosphorus def (maybe Potassium??). With fan leafs getting weak and falling off. I checked her module ppm/ph and it was 448ppm/4.8ph While the res was at 480ppm/5.6ph.her module has a bit of roots also, while the girl opposite of her had a high PH of 6.2. My SLF100 comes in tomorrow. It should help with the salt build up but I may have to take them off their air today and make a recharge bath for them. Everyone is still charging through it, which keeps me optimistic. I increased my solution back to 3g/gal in hopes I was right about the def.Excited to try RainScience bags next time, they should definitely do a better job than the fabric pots that comes with the system. Im 4/4 on germination for the next run, which will be NightOwls Queen’s Banner (Cosmic Queen F4S1 x Bruce Banner 3 Auto), they will be in the phot tent with the Jelly Rancher I’m running. I’ll let her veg out for another 4 weeks.

E is bad, but not for long now.

Day 82!

I wanted to give them some time before the next update after receiving the SLF100 last week… It has worked wonders for the girls! Everyone has showed more green, no more yellowing. Also cleaned the res over the weekend. The Anvil looks like they’ll need another week or so to finish but the Black Strap (D75) seems to be ready, showing some Foxtailing but look oh so pretty. The next rotation of girls for the autopot are doing well also!

It’s been a long time since I’ve update this journal. From resetting the room due to a spider mite problem, to the holidays rolling in and taking the time to look over previous notes. I made a couple changes and so far things have been much better for me. I upgraded my submersible pump to a stronger one. I haven’t had any fertilizer build up in the res at all since the change. I also decided to use RainScience 3gal bags with the autopot updated pot socks. No air kit this time around. The bags are doing fantastic. No salt build up on the walls like the previous grows.

if you look back, you may notice i mentioned the Queen's Banner that I was prepping to move into the spaces… Well here they are! They’re currently being fed 3g/gal of MC with Hydroguard and SLF100. They’re currently at day 59, and cruising along.

Going to be a photo dump since I haven’t updated this journal but have taken photos over time taggingsome gromies who I thought may be interested in the update.
