I clean my actual water pot that holds the pot it self once a week, but I use MegaCrop and it leaves a snot gummy residue in the bottom and sides.

Hi
What do you do with the inline tube if anything.

I was thinking of putting my jetwash blasting through it if possible.

ATACLEAN is the stuff to use with the Autopot system. It will keep the lines free and clear for 100%. Plus, it has some really nice stuff that helps the plants as well. Check it out, great stuff!

It was recommended to me a while back and I have never had any issues. You still need to clean the reservoir each week or so, but the lines won't get clogged up. If you add a little H2O2 as well, you can both add the extra O2 to the system, but also prevent other little issues like springtails, mold, popping up later in the grow as well. Use whatever the recommended amount says. Each brand will have a different percentage and usage as well.

The two of them will be a great prevention tool so you should not have any issues. SM-90 is also useful if you get any issues with other type of infestations. Doesn't conflict with ATACLEAN or the H2O2 either. A good clean Rez and line system is so key, and then the autopots are so sweet to have.
I use to run soil and dwc, Autopot are the best, hassle free system I have ever used! Have fun. PM me if you have any issues.
I just became a member here, but I have been in the game for many years

Welcome to the forum and thanks for sharing your experience
I have only ever used autopots, so don’t know any different.
I have never used any cleaning stuff before, I generally just clean it via the jetwash where I can.
Didn’t actually know you can run in with feed at the same time, does it mess with EC or anything, do you have to counteract it by putting less feed in when using it.

You can add hydroguard I do every other refill to the tank.

That's about all I do is keep big tank maintained with hydroguard and clean the resivour cleaned once a week with the jet sprayer in kitchen sink scrub with green scrub rinse off good to go.
