If you're not bothered about watering drain to waste - Autopots could work well for you as coco wickes well.

I've got a really cool autopot guide (from super grower hansbricks) that uses coco if you'd like it!? :D

HANSBRICKS RED POISON & GORILLA GLUE AUTO POT WITH COCO GROW

ALL PHOTOS ON SHOW ARE GORILLA GLUE


These Autopots work well with pretty much any medium but for best results I’d definitely recommend using them with Coco. I’ve been mixing in around 20-30% perlite my previous grows but trying out straight coco this time around since I don’t think it’s really necessary with this medium.

INITIAL WATERING - SEED NOT UP

I watered both pots initially with about 1.5L of 5.8 pH water with Voodoo Juice and Cal-Mag at 1ml/l. Both are currently just under my Apollo LED running 24/0 for first few days then will switch to 20/4.

Day 6
Gave them their first feeding yesterday with 0.5ml/l Sensi Grow and 2ml/l Voodoo Juice (plus cal-mag as usual). Each pot got about 750ml of water.

Day 10
Things seem to be moving along just fine with these... Will be giving them their next feeding tomorrow and will bump it up to 1ml/l on the Sensi Grow.

Day 15
Good looking start to these so far... The GG is already looking promising, quite a bit bigger than the RP at this point. Just gave them another feeding after taking these pics, still same feed as last time. Another 5 days and I'll get the Autopots turned on.

Day 19
Good growth last few days, also both have showed sex already... Gave them another feeding last night, now at 1.5ml/l Sensi Grow and Cal/mag. I've also started adding the Silicate as well, starting at the minimum dosage which is just 1.5ml per 4L. I plan on getting the Autopots going tomorrow and will also add in the Mars LED.

Day 21 TURN ON THE AUTOPOTS

Filled up the res with about 15L to start, current feed is 1.5ml/l Sensi Grow and Cal-Mag plus the Silicate at 1.5ml/4L. I've also started adding the Terpinator at 2ml/l and the Drip-Clean (1ml/10L).

Day 28
These are really starting to take off now... always amazes me how quickly these plants can grow. :thumbsup:
Filled up the res with another 20L today, bumped up the base nutes to 2ml/l, everything else same as last feed.

Day 32
Really picking up the pace now... only been 4 days since last update but there's been substantial growth so time to update again ;)
Res was empty this morning so they're definitely increasing their uptake (20L in 3.5 days).
Filled up about 25L this time, still 2ml/l Sensi Grow, probably switch over to Bloom next feed. Increased Cal/Mag slightly to 1.75ml/l and Silicate now at 2ml/4L.

Day 36
Had to fill up the res again today... Made up a 30L batch and switched over to Sensi Bloom Coco now (still 2ml/l), bumped up the Terpinator to 2.5ml/l and also started adding Bud Candy at 1ml/l.

Day 40
I filled up the res and have starting adding Big Bud as well at 1ml/L as per usual, everything else is the same... These girls are quite thirsty going through about 6-7L a day now.

Day 49
Things are looking good and the buds are filling out nicely now. I'll be away for a few days so I filled up the res with about 35L yesterday, feed is the same as last update.

Day 54
Well both plants looking okay today... I had to tie up several of the GG branches though cause they were still falling over. Also did a big defoliation on her today, removed probably two dozen leaves to really open her up and get some good light penetration to the lower half.

I switched out Big Bud with Overdrive a couple days ago... It's looking like the RP will get another week of feeding then I'll start the 10 day flush, the GG will likely get at least 2 more weeks before flushing.

Day 61
Alright bit of an overdue update been really busy lately... ended up chopping the RP on Monday, not overly happy with how that one turned out... I'll get the final harvest and bud pics of that up later this week though.

Thanks Hans !! You Rock

:headbang:
:slap::slap: Awesome!
 
Hehe I imagine my american amigos have no Clue who these old folk are in this series!! :D

It was a very good thing for the UK - as mostly, your "avereage joe" on the street still considers Canna to be some dark and shady drug lol
Definitley changed a few opinions!

:D
I watched it too, I was glad they were all a bit more open-minded by the end, especially Fash!
Taking a bit time to settle back in...or just a total bummer job...?

What did you Win...?
I've worked for the same company for a number of years on and off due to circumstances. After our long holiday I went back on a temporary contract but as that was getting close to ending things were changing so I tried something more like what I used to do but I absolutely hate it LOL. I've done it for six weeks and knew within the first couple of days it wasn't for me but I needed a proper exit strategy! New temporary job on the horizon, after that I'm in no hurry.

My style is mostly based on budget and trying to maintain a grow area while being as thrifty as possible. I may not be getting the biggest buds, but they are great smoke for me and I'm not ashamed of anything that comes out of my garden as long I really enjoy the process.
Sam, thank you. That's a great philosophy and one I should practice! Need to drop you some rep for that.

I've got them in a little section :D

I only put about 5 together yesterday as part of 420 celebrations ... and those were just off the top of my head!

I could possibly ask some staff to add to it - there's about 100 more honourable mentions (waira ... rebel ... the high team ... cannazonians ..... hobbes.... eP .... loads more, and even some i would have missed)

I'll repost them in a visible section if there's interest :D ... Hmmm - I didn't exactly ask permission from some *cough ... any* people either >.<
I thought they were great blue, I'd gladly read them all! I do forget things like how people got started and how their grows evolved, even if I've talked to them quite a bit, and it would be great to have it all in one place against each member. I will admit to compiling something a little similar for @Mossy just so I had it to refer to - not in a stalky way but because I admire and respect what she's done and she's an inspiration. I'd love to start trying my hand at breeding and see how I get on. It's just around the corner now as I'm going to start some reg seeds in a month to six weeks.
