Grow Mediums Autopot first run questions

[St. Tom]

Hi bro I grow in autopots with Canna coco /clay pebble mix I buy it in 50 litre bags I also use emerald harvest nutes and have no problem with blockages also I used to use remo nutes for a few years with great success also I used the airdomes once and didn't bother again as I didn't see the point .also regarding your clay pebble s did you wash them before using them that can case pH issues otherwise also I've just flipped my photo plants if you wanna check them out and give me a shout if you need anything

Depends on how big they are.

I think they are pretty mature. Trying to hold off to send them in the flower because I’m going on vacation soon and a bit nervous about them not getting enough water and nutrients through the Autopot while I’m gone.

Thanks for the reply! I’m new to the grow game so don’t know much and even less about coco. How does growing in coco compare to soil in Autopots? I did wash the pebbles before putting them in pots although I think I might of put too thick of a layer of pebbles as I didn’t use airdomes but made my own with old plastic cups with drilled holes and an airstone inside. Do you have a post about your current grow?

I was worried about possible root issues so I decided to plant one outside. I think the roots look ok….thoughts?

Final weights for the 2 indoor plants. Not too bad for first grow. The outdoor plant buds were fluffy and I don’t think I weighed the plant. I’ll probably make some edibles from them. I’ll be popping some fastbuds Gorilla Zkittlez Auto
