Wish they done a smaller version to fit in my 80x80cm for starting seeds or my clones to go in once rooted

That's pretty cool though.

Save me time and with these autopot iv literally done nothing except fill the res on a weekend and stake them op last weekend...
Compare to hand watering every day getting 2-4 plants out to reach about and water

Hey bud I've got 5/6 of the older version smart trays.
You can make any size all you need is a tray, aqua valve and a corex lid.

Have you got any pics of or how would I go about it

Here you go bud.



Same thing just a different size, I used this to keep mother's in under 4x18w bulbs (100% perlite)

Come to think about it I ordered 100ltr of perlite I'm going to try it with the autopots, I had great results with it before and it's easy to recycle, clean and sterilise.

If I've missed anything or I can help lmk

 

[polska86]

Yeah thats a good idea I can just buy a storage box with a lid to make summit like that

They're sitting on the bottom of the tray, it might look suspended but the lids cut neat to the pot to stop light and humidity.

 

[polska86]

Just been looking at this tub for 15 small pots maybe,

 

[polska86]

I think that's 2 deep for the pots I plan on using

 

[TheWholeTruth]

You could also just use a tray like that and have a wide low reservior (usualy i would have this double or bigger the capacity of the trays on top so that ther is still pleanty of water in the reservior wen the uper tank has been floode so the pump never runs dry, ive had realy low wide sitting reserviors and put slats accros them and have had 2 or 3 trays sitting on top) sitting right under it. Put a pump in the reservior with pipe connecting to the bottom of the top tray. Fill the top tray with what ever size pots you want with what ever media you want. Switch the pump on and time how long it takes to be near full and thats your flood timer and setting time attached to the pump plug. Once the pump goes off gravity causes the water to drains back out via the way it came in. I used to normaly just put a few bigger rocks around the water inlet on the top tray to act as a filter so no cloging or rubbish goes down it ( or chasing roots cus they will chase down) and blocks the pipe and i normaly atach screen net to both ends of the pipe before ataching one end to the pump and the other end to the fitting on top. It a simple cheep method with only one moving part wich is the pump. Any leaks from the top trays or over flow goes right back into the reservior below. Flood and drain is one of the most easiest and effective methods ive used. Ive been able to leave systems like this for upto two weeks dependant on reservior size with zero issues.

Mine have been using a 100ltrs every 6 days roughly, this 210 should last me the 10 days but am gona fill a 70ltr bin also and tell the person popping in to top it off ever other day or so

I wouldnt call them foxtails really. Is that plant getting the exact same feed as the others, have you checked ther is nothing that could be interfering with the roots or ph. Just looks like it grown a bit less dense and stackin bud on top of bud maybe difrent to the others. The amounts of pk uptake can change the structure and the way it stacks also your dark temp vs light on temps can effect density too. But it odd that just the one clone out of many that are the exact same are doing that. You could swap its position in the tent and see if its a hot spot, but a hot spot that causes changes like that shouldnt be just small enough to afect only the one plant as it should catch some parts of the plants around it. So the only thing that would make sense is something is affecting the way its working, the only thing independent of the other cuts would be the area in side its own pot as everything else it shares the same as the others, light air, feed your giving ect. Or are they all sharing root space in one big tray ?

No they have different pots same media same nutrition only difference is where they are in the room and what part of the light they sit under ... I have 3 of this cut in the room and all 3 are growing different so I Dno what is going on in there the other cuts that are the same are growing like they're the same .... its a mystery

Sounds like it might just be where they are in the room then
