Grow Mediums Lankys first auto trial

nothing much to report on Lankys home front which I guess is good news :) both plant 1+2 are above 500mm (half meter) from the top of the pot as of today still feeding fish mix & bloom number 3 is also loving the mix :)

well as things are quiet except for a mag deficiency which I am currently adding a little calmag now with feeds I thought I would update my journal to the current day in one post :D

see my mistakes!

23/4/16 my seeds popped so I potted them into the final 15ltr autopots with no plastic cup or seedling dome

26/4 dropped the led from 24" to 20" added 1ml of fish mix to 1ltr of water and fed 150ml each they seemed to like it .

27/4 upon receiving my second mars 300 I added it and fed another 125ml feed with fish mix.

28 -29th /4 things did not look good the plants looked ill so I removed the second led and flushed and put the other led back to 24" (school boy error probably added mix too early)

4/5 added seedling 3 to its new home along with 1ltr of water

5/5 added 1+2 to autopots

6/5 added a little fish mix to plant 1 & 2

8/5 just top fed 1ltr of water to 1 & 2 unsure pots are working

11/5 added fish mix and bloom to 2ltr of water and top fed a liter each to 1 & 2

14/5 added 1 liter to all plants 1 & 2 with added mix and bloom also added 2nd led again (struggling with temps going above 30c 86f) so decided to limit the time on of the second led.

17/5 added 1 liter of water to all 3 plants 1 & 2 being 25 days old and number 3 being 13 days

19/5 a mag deficiency is showing signs in plant 1 (27 days) so I feed 1 + 2 with added fish mix/bloom and a little epsom salts I also added a little fish mix 250ml to plant number 3

21/5 1 & 2 are taking from the autopots but I still top feed my nutes with water and just water through the system I switch the valve off and let the trays go dry I stagger my feeds .... How the hell I am surviving this I do not know! I do want to go fully auto but lacking confidence plus I am still like a kid in a candy shop

22/5 added a little more epsom salts with water for 1 + 2

23/5 fed all 3 plants with a mix and decided to measure the first two are now above 1/2 meter tall from the top of the pot

26/5 added another mix to all 3 and got some proper calmag :D

little is more ... crazy sometimes work .... what the hell am I doing .... I just make it up as I go along but the main thing is I am surviving at the moment but do not know how :D

The flowering as just started
