I don't run hydro..all I could do is 5gal sip buckets? Or the ac infinity self watering grow bases..?

That’s fine coco is basically hydro.. when I did auto pots MOG suggested to do a weekly flush with 50% nutes.. The problem with coco and bottom feeding is when the coco drys out it leaves a toxic salt line flushing weekly will help prevent this… I would use your AC trays so you could still top fertigate when needed :thumbsup:

Ok will do....rainscience or grassroots? For coco both 5gal? Thanks
 
:shrug: Either would be fine I would probably use the RS since I think they’ll dry back faster which is helpful when they’re young
Ok ty....I've noticed though that my plants in grassroots are bigger faster...i already topped them...the rainscience arnt ready yet....i appreciate your help..ty

I think that means you need to work on your watering technique on watering the RS bags. I think it takes a bit of time to water them properly. I try to be methodical as possible and concentrate on making sure the sides get fully wet. I think the use of a surfactant in every watering is a MUST in soil in RS bags. I think it's really too easy for the sides to go hydrophobic, if not using a surfactant.
I don't know if I do have the watering down on RS bags, but it's better than the first time. LOL!
I'm beginning to think that RS bags would be best used in 15al bags and up, with Grassroots relegated to the smaller bags.
I made a pretty big investment into the RS bags and I want to strive and make them work before I go to something else. I think I have 8 of the small 3gal ones. I've had ok results the 3gal bags, just not where it should be.
I think I'll buy 2 Grassroots 3gal bags and run some of the seeds I get from Twenty20Adam in them............IF I'm still on the site.:face:


It will be a good comparison. EB Jrs have roughly the same amount of media, not including the nute mound and should interesting to see the differences between the three types.

Not on the site? I appreciate it...I water the outside real good when I water them.....I use npk yucca powder! I'll get theses down...I like grassroots the roots hit the bottom fast....way faster then rainscience.....I always water the whole pot......till run off.....only thing is the grassroots hold moisture longer.....I'll still go rainscience for the coco and megacrop..on ac infinityselfwateringgrowbases. ....for the Twenty20 g&s....I also add hydroguard and vit c to every water
