Nice work! I am a very experience Cocongrower and firmly believe in the same method you use for pot size and watering frequency...especially with Autos. Coco can grow massive plants in very little medium....if you keep it well hydrated. I also prefer top feeding vs Bottom Wicking for coco. I feel like Bottom fed Coco plants go longer and can build up nutes. Top watering multiple times per day keeps the medium less built up and plants grow faster IMO. Supercropping or Topping Autos can cause a delay in flowering for surely. Some more than others and some dont skip a beat. That is the downside to Autos. Each plant can grow differently and respond differently to stress. Different phenos and the inability to keep clones an create a wide variety of plants. Especially if F1 seeds, with no refinement.Lol... yeah it is one pot (airpot) and one plant. An absolute beast. My poor tent is only 1.2w x 0.6d a 1.8h metres in dimension! She has grown above the light and is easily a metre wide. She has been super cropped 4 times.
This Toof Decay did no start flowering to day 50 (95 days since sprout) - and as a result, I have this monster!!!!
She is on the Buddha's Tree range at about 0.7EC @ 6.0 pH.
She is under 265W of QB at 3500k and 40W of Deep Red at 6600nm.
She is automatically fed once per hour for 5 seconds. The reservoirs are heated and aerated. The medium is coco / perlite.
The very first purchase from Mephisto I mesaged Mitch beforehand to pick his brain on which strains could be ran SOG style or didnt get that large. He suggested Sour Crack, 24 Carat, and Toof decay. 24 Carat and Sour Crack stay small. Toof Decay had a couple smaller ones, but a vast majority were medium to large plants. That is why Sour Crack is my all time favorite Mephisto strain. It is predictable on harvest time and I know how large they get. There is only a couple phenos, and 1 is a little more open and taller. But I just got these BRAND NEW F8 Sour Crack testers and they will be planted later today! They are soaking in a cup of water in my heated tote and both have cracked open. Just giving them til this evening to get a longet tail. However, I am running these in 100% Organic Kis soil in a 4 gal home made SIP. But when I run Coco, I use 1/2 gal to 1 gal pots and Green Planet nutez. Peace, slow
