Mother Plants for Autopot Coco Grow?

HI

Ive been running a ten pot autopot coco system for a while now and always grew local strain cheese. having worked with this strain for a while i decided to invest some time and money into different strains.

so i invested in some seeds (tangerine dream, strawb haze, blueberry, ice cream and super lemon) and having rooted them in peat pellets im ready to transplant them.

but into what?

i was looking at feeding them on a seperate autopot setup, using cana coco a & b on quart strength.

however a friend of mine has advised using bat guano and just feeding them water as he says the guano holds all the necessary nutrients that mother plants require? i can understand why this is a healthier more organic way to store mother plants but is it true and will my mothers be gettin enough nutrients from the guano alone?

if not what sort of medium/feed/storage would be best for an autopot coco setup?

ive also been looking at airpots to store them in to encourage root mass? has anyone used these with mothers and if so what are your views/opinions?

thanks for your time and any advise is greatly appreciated

happy smokinge

p.s when using jiffy peat pellets should i cut the "sock" part off before transplanting or leave it on? keep getting conflicting advice on the subject

leave it on mate the roots will grow straight through. i left them on in my grow with no problems at all

Bat guano will work fine... its usually a 5-1-1 mixture, which is decent for a veg plant (mother, in your case). You might want to feed a micronutrient feeding every few weeks or so.

how do you keep your mums guys?

You can just use cfl's and 24 hour light... or a 250w mh/hps
