Autopots
Day 21
ok guys so the growth this past week has been very nice! The stretch is on and they are branching nicely. I just turned the AutoPot system on today (day 21) so i expect to see some good growth from here on until the stretch stops and we start flowering. I Initially filled the rez with 16 L of Feed. I also upped the feed this week as they were wanting more food. I see some Mag def. going on so i upped the calMag+ also along with adding Mammoth P
Feed is as follows:
pH:6.0
PPM 650
Remo: Micro,Grow,Natures candy are at 6Ml/G
Botanicare CalMag+ 6Ml/G
Mammoth P 1Ml/Gal
Recharge 1Tsp/Gal 1x/Week
They Showed Sex on day 20
COB'S are 30" above the canopy
What do you think of them @Hansbricks ?

Hey Trip, the black hose going into your pots, is that an air line? So do you just water them like in any pot till you turn the reservoir on?

How does 30" above the canopy sound for my Light distance pepe?

Your ladies look happy, I'd leave it where it's at and let em grow into it. I'm learning some plants don't mind getting in close to the cobs.

Day 24
Actual COB distance is 28-29.5" above the plants depending on which plant
I have also cranked up my air pump a little and they seem to like it, so today i turned it up again after i took these pics
I also refilled the res today with another 16L's of feed and i upped my calmag. pH is at 5.8 because my pH drifts up so if i leave it at 5.8 it will swing up to my 6.0 sweet spot. I usually have to pH down it the next day because it will go to 6.1-6.2 and as i just said i like 6.0 for this stage of growth here on out.
