Grow Mediums Amending soil/topfeed autopot experiments

Do you have a source of supply where I don’t have to buy 200 of them? I just want to try a few, and don’t want the waste.

Nah I bought them in a 400 pack on Amazon for $15, just figured I'd use them all eventually. They're more effective than solo cups in my opinion

About to water ph 6.2 ppm 17 (after ro)

Usually 20 seconds per plant on a electric pump sprayer, set to low.

What kind of sprayer u use?? I made myself a getup I can use with a bucket but it puts out pressure way too high unless I keep valve on wand mostly closed but pump doesn’t like that at all! Something I could carry in and out of my bedroom would be much easier!

I use a rainmaker 5 gallon I bought at the local hydroponics shop. It's convenient for hand watering. It has a caddy on wheels, and backpack straps. It also lasts about 5 weeks on a full charge. Was $100, I get a discount since I've shopped at this store since 2016 and know everyone there. Always support local when possible

Topped the frosty biscuits clone monday. Already responded with new growth. Topped the meghans cake today. Stratched up the topsoil since watering compacts it, like to keep the top few inches fluffed up for easier amending if needed. Growing under a maxisisun MG3000 light at 75% 18" above canopy

Will definitely have to be hand watered while I'm gone. But the growth has been explosive for the sour cookies x white runtz.

Skipping watering to make a tea to feed tomorrow. Soil is still fairly moist a inch deep

Tea is roots organic terp tea grow and microbe charge.

Tea brew after 10 hours. Gonna wait until tonight to feed. One gallon brewing in a 3 gallon bucket. I like the terp tea since you can make any size brew

Fed the tea last night. Might top the sour cookies x white runtz before I leave for vacation on the 20th. Will be back on the 30th. When I come back I'll set up the reservoirs and split the group into two tents.

Thinking I might be able to hook 5 of the 8 up to the reservoir before I leave Thursday morning. The clones and the sour cookies x white runtz probably have established enough of a root system. Worried about the 3 smaller ones, which would probably still need some hand watering.
