Hi everyone, I've been drooling over an Autopot system for a while now and finally gathered enough funds. I bought an Autopot system with four 15L pots, a 47L tank and Airdomes. I currently have one air pump (Hailea ACO-2204) with 2 outlets that has a max. total capacity of 4L/min. I read somewhere on AFN that Airdomes are recommended to use an airflow of 100-200L/hour . Is this correct or can I use more? I need to buy a QUIET pump with 4 outlets. Any recommendations?
My setup:
Space: Mammoth Pro 1.2×1.2m tent
Air system: Soler & Palau TD-350 Silent fan + Rhino Pro 425m³ carbon filter. Passive intake.
Medium: 5cm bottom layer of Hydroton + Coco:Hydroton (80:20)
Containers: 15L Autopots with Airdomes
Air Pump: Hailea ACO-2204 (2 outputs, max. 4L/min) + ?
Recirculating water pump in tank: Sicce Syncra Nano (140-400 L/hour)
Light: 5W Mars Reflector 96 (200W draw), 2 x GN HS1 LED (75W draw) + Lightwave T5HO (96W draw).
Nutrients: Advanced Nutrients Grow A+B, Coco Bloom A+B, Sensizym (small amount left), Voodoo Juice, Big Bud Coco, Overdrive, Carboload and Sensi Cal-Mag Extra (roughly TaNg's feeding schedule).
I will be growing the following strain
2 x Dutch Passion AutoColorado Cookies
2 x Dutch Passion AutoBrooklyn Sunrise
I'm going to LST the plants to create an even canopy of buds (inspired by @Hazy).
My tent is currently occupied by a huge Dutch Passion AutoDaiquiri Lime @ day 116, which is growing in a makeshift Autopot. I put an Airdome in the bottom of an Air Pot and stuck the whole thing in a large container. I fill the container with a few litres of water after it dries out. I also have 5 Dutch Passion AutoBlackberry Kush @ day 64 or so. The ADL is coming down in about one week, which will free up the HS1 LED's for the Autopots.
PS! This is my first run at coco, so guidance is welcome

so I expected it to take some time to correct, but not 3 days... I first washed all of the clay dust off of them. After that I filled a container with tap water (Ph 8.1) and Ph-ed it to 5.5 with citric acid. I dumped all of the clay balls in there overnight. The next day the Ph was at 8. I replaced the water and Ph-ed to 5. The next day it was 7.3. Ph-ed fresh water to 5, ended up 6.3 overnight. I've now Ph-ed the same water with balls in it to 4.5. Hopefully they're good to go by tomorrow.
