nice looking plants ,only problem with auto pots i had was the roots blocking them up !

I've also heard of others having the same problem. I use a root disc inside the pots, and another golden one at the tray bottom under the pots. So far only small roots have appeared under the pot, think I'll avoid clogging of the aquavalve

The ladies after one week in veg: The girls explode with autopots.
The medium is moist also on top, even if it is bottom fed.

Nice :) Clean space on top of the pots, i like that.
Looks like you know you`re stuff :)
Nice choice of nutes too :) i used this before over several years, allways had great results with that :) The only nute avaliable in norway back in the day, that actually was tested on large scale cannabis plantations.

Day 50 in flower

Day 50 in flower

Hi folks! Today I have flushed the 6 ladies with PH adjusted water. The wasted water didn't seem to contain large amounts of salts, just a bit yellow. When I used to flush after handwatering in earlier grows, the water used to be brownish and much darker, so it might seem that bottom watering doesn't cause as much salt build up as top feeding.

They are still fattening up and the trichomes are still mostly clear, none brown yet.
