Grow Mediums Roasty Tries to Rock Some Autopots!

[Only1Sky]

Ya bro, ideally 1 res per Autopot would be best. I can't seem to find suitable parts to make my own res locally, just need some of those top hat grommets.
As long as my 2 inline fans keep running, we'll be in good shape. Never had mold/rot, stays pretty dry here except for this time of year.

Say Roasty, do you track your RH? Your comment about the fans and local dryness makes me curious what you're typically getting for daily RH values? I'm afraid of mold/rot and want to make sure that I've got that aspect of the tent's environment under control. Thanks.

During spring, much more humid. In the 50's atm at canopy level. Normally I'd say in the 40's.

Thx M8. That's comforting to hear. This has been a worrisome variable for me. Early in the grow I was using humidifiers to get it above 55. As the veg phase matured I was able to stop with the humidifiers. As bloom phase started I was boosting circulation to get the RH down to 50. I added a dehumidifier as a precaution, but since the circulation is now keeping the RH just below 50, the dehumidifier really isn't pulling out any water. But in another couple of months here (basically all summer) my ambient RH will be very high. Maybe I'm being too over-concerned, but I just don't want to see my 1st or 2nd grows ruined by some nasty growth.

My RH is at 65-70%... Can't get it down unless I open tent. Sometimes I wish I had HPS back...

I think air flow is the key, you can probably get away with a little higher rh if the air is exchanging at a good rate. Molds really like stagnant air, doesn't thrive in constant fresh air. I would still try and keep it in the 50's.

Update day 70 Skysenberg, she's semi flushing atm with just Recharge and zyme. I am just hand watering her res without using autovalve. She will come down by day 77 as she looks ready.

Day 61 Six Shooter, she's flying solo on the res, and will soon be rocking this tent solo. What a beast, by far my biggest auto to date. I think she's going to go at least 3 more weeks, maybe 4.

That tent does look fine. I hope you have lots of jars and B62s for all that bud you are going to have.

Great stuff @Roasty McToasty looks a good yielding pheno of the Skysenberg, mine is very much Skywalker and OG dom. Super skills
