Hi !
Just trying to dial my feeding schedule.
I'm using airpots atm Feeding 3 times during lights on.

They're 45 L airpots and each feed i give them about 3-4 Litres.

Just want to know what works for people and if they've seen improvements changing from one to another.
Thanks.

3x a day is perfect. The amount of water needed changes as the plants grow. I have my timer set to run 5 minutes. With 4- 5 gallon pots I usually end up with about a quart of waste every week.

With such little runoff, you must not be fully saturating the coco when you water... is there a certain saturation level you aim to keep?

For example's sake... lets say a fully saturated 3 gallon weighs 15lbs, and bone dry is only 3-4lbs... what range do you try to keep them in?

I've had incredible growth rates with various configs of your SB Veg and SB Single/Double units, I'm currently trying to get coco dialed in to get as close to that as possible... I'm thinking the key is in keeping the medium at a pretty stable saturation point with frequent but short feedings... would love to hear your input.

Thanks for all that you've contributed to the community, your thread is what inspired me to start growing. Thank you :peace:
