Ok so i have been growing in dwc for the past year with some decent success but am going to give autopots a whirl. I have the 15l 4 pit system in a 1.2,1.2,2.0m tent with a 600w hps, will be germinating soon and just wanted to get some advice on growing in autopots and coco as never done before. Main things are best ways to feed until rooted, how wet does the coco need to be when hand watering and how do you know what e.c/ppms to run if you cant test like you can in DWC and there is no run off on autopots. Thanks for any advice given :D

Same as dwc keep ec low and let it ride. Water until it looks moist same as anything else. Don't over think things.

Hi mate cheers for the reply i just wanted to know as in dwc you can use a ec meter to adjust weekly as the plants change their needs but I couldn’t figure out how you do that with autos

I hand water for a week roots will make it to bottom. Veg my ec is around 1 flowering about 1.6. Been growing with Autopots for 6 years now. The easiest way to grow.
