    I reached back out to autopot over the weekend and have yet to hear back. The plants are still growing well. Here is a photo from this morning.

    The plants seem to be growing very well. The Hive may be my keepers for the next grow although I am interested to see how the other strains turn out, especially the Blueberry Bang Bang. Also, shout out to Beanstalk CRF, these plants are looking great!

    Are controlled release fertilizers going to change the game?

    You may not believe it but I spent 5 minutes weighing the beanstalk out and mixing it in the coco and all I do each week is check the water level and pH of my reservoir and I'm having amazing results in veg. There is a reason KIS sells this stuff.

    Are controlled release fertilizers going to change the game?

    Beanstalk nutes have been killer for me everytime I use them in veg. Will they work well for flower? Ask me again in a few months... Easy as pie and no longer am I spending 45 minutes each morning mixing nutrients and watering my plants.

    I actually couldn't reach them on the phone number while I was at work but I got Luke's number at autopot. In the mean time everything has been working great so I didn't prioritize it like maybe I should have. I will message Luke back and see what he thinks. Everything has been growing very well...

    The Hive pheno in the front middle died on me so I replaced it with the backup GMS that I was keeping in the solo cup. I switched up the pots so that the Hive phenos, the GMS phenos and the BBB phenos are next to each other in the planters. Also did a defoliation on the plants as well. The...

    I've reached out to autopot and I will be talking with them on the phone tomorrow. I wouldn't recommend this "hack" as autopot claims it is detrimental, although I'm going to keep the weight on the aquavalve for the time being because it does seem to be working. I manually removed some water...

    From a reddit AMA: Seems like the autopot folks don't like the idea of adding a weight to the float valve but I did everything they suggest through their troubleshooting guides to remedy the issue of the bases not draining and the weight is the only thing that's helped. The folks there don't...

    I haven't called them but I have read their troubleshooting guides. The guides don't mention this issue except for saying that the valve should be seated firmly and on a level surface. I checked the valves again this morning, this fix seems to be working. I will contact autopot with this...

    Using what I could find, I sticky-tacked some nuts to the valve floats on all the aquavalves in the veg tent. I'm hoping this fixes the problem for good. This has been the main negative to the autopots is that the aquavalves don't always work like they should. Autopot should adjust this for the...

    https://www.rollitup.org/t/autopot-issues-problems-solutions-and-fixes.1097171/ I just found this post which goes over the problem I was having with my aquavalves and how to fix it. Apparently placing a washer or weight on the valve float will ensure that the valve works properly. I will test...

    You can see the stem in this photo. Tonight I checked the aquavalves to make sure that they are functioning properly. The problem that occurs is the plant bases stay full of water and do not ebb & flow as designed. This was an issue I ran into last year although issue is a strong word because...

    No reason, some of the plants were leaning over when I transplanted. I'll try to take a good picture of that when I get a chance. It does look like that though. The growth is crazy if you really compare both photos post transplant. The first picture was taken about a day after transplant and...

    I transplanted my plants into their 2.2 gallon veg containers yesterday afternoon. It was relatively simple to transplant out of the dividers that the plants were previously in. There were .55 gallons of coco/perlite for each plant in the divider. I subtracted this from 2.2 gallons and that...

    On to the next page. AREA 51 IS FINALLY COMPLETELY BUILT!!! There were three new 20A circuits installed with new outlets for each circuit. This gives me four total 20A circuits in the room, plus the A/C. I am not using nearly this many watts but it sure is nice to be operating with safe...

    The electricians rescheduled until today. Here is a shot of the plants from yesterday. There has been a lot of growth. 10/23 10/20 The autopots are working just fine but I did need to top water the smaller plants in the feeder on the left in the photos.

    One seedling did not make it. I have 2x BBB, 3x The Hive, and 2x GMS. I will throw one GMS away when I transplant to veg. Placed these pots in the easy2grow feeder. I know I forgot to fill the capillary holes in the dividers so I'm not sure the autopots will really work until the transplant...
