Gogrow pots/coco perlite, just set up.

Hey guys finally made the switch to hydro from canna terra,

8x 25l go grow pots, have white widow seeds just sprouted, the 2 in there are also white widow but about 2 wks from popping

65l reservoir, with recirculating pump and air stone
Green planet dual fuel starter nutes

1x600w mh for veg
2x 600w hps for flower
Can fan 150rs w carbon filter

Used the 5x5 grow tent frame to hang lights/extractor fan

Was an expensive day at the hydro shop yesterday but im stoked to have it semi set up

Any suggestions or advice is welcome.

Cheers

7 white widow seeds just popped

I am hand watering/feeding ph tested/ec tested nutes for the first few weeks.

To be honest it was quite daunting going from soil to hydro, but after i mixed up the first feed i found it quite easy to get the ph/ec correct.

Been one week in the autopots, still hand feeding, my ww seedlings got too leggy so I turfed them and started some others.

3 weeks later, 9litre ( 2.5-3 gal bucket for size reference,)

These things are absolutely thriving.

Topped once around 2 weeks ago

Bit of lst,

Might let them go a couple more weeks yet then flip.

Autopots for life

These things are unstoppable. Once the res uses these nutes I'm flipping them to 12/12

Last bit of training before flip, just used some small bamboo stakes to make a diy trellis frame to really spread them out

Flipped to 12/12 on 5 April
Added pro cal to res
Using the last of veg nutes in res before I use any flowering nutes

Here They are

6 days after flip. Really starting to see some stretch beginning

First pic, April 4th
Second pic, April 12th

April 22nd, huge growth spurt, autopots for life ftw.

18 days since 12/12

Nutes


Using green planet dual fuel 1&2
2ml per litre
Green planet massive bloom 5ml per litre
Green planet rezin 2ml per litre
Green planet pro - cal 1.25ml per litre

Ec 2.0
Ph 5.8-6.0

I'm glad I only grew 2 plants with the new setup, cant wait for these to finish so I can get 8 this size going!

Have some super skunk fems I'll germinate in a few weeks and stick them in the veg tent while these ones finish off

I cannot recommend the autopot system highly enough.
Low maintenance, great results. See for yourself

26 days since 12/12 flip. Looking excellent
Upped the dual fuel 1&2 to 2.25ml per litre from 2.0, res change tomorrow

Day 55 since flip

hi there...
i'm a newbie with 1st grow occurring in AutoPots - must admit not that successful presently - used H&G nutes for veg stage (8wks) - switched to GreenPlanet GP3 nutes with flip & flower - now ~3rd week flower... may I ask;

are you using GP2 Autopot feed chart mL/L mix ratios for your reservoir per week?
are you mixing to GP2 Autopot feed chart suggested EC range per week?
do you have a preferred reservoir pH value within suggested 5.8 to 6.5 range?
do you run reservoir nutrients temps between 68-72 Fahrenheit (20-22C)?

your info on using GP2 nutrients in reservoir appreciated...

Hey bro, this is the one I use. However I use green planet plant guard, and pro-cal as well.. ( add the plant guard first!!)

Latest crop

My reservoir temps would be in the 18-25c range.. However I've never really checked tbh...

Anywhere between 5.8 and 6.3 ph is fine. I usually make up solution to 5.6 or 5.7 as I have found the ph rises a little over 24-48hrs, so it settles out around 6ish

Definitely waited too long to scrog..
