@littlejacob i don't really "flush" in the true sense of the word...for the last 9 days or so ill just add water to the reservoir to dilute the nutes/water that is in there which drops the ppm

Leaves started to shrink at the ends and plants wilting. Did a ff with less than half nutes, mag cal, and some carbon too? Some leaves tacking and yellowing?

I use the Original Autopot system from the inventor in Melbourne, Australia, and really like it. I have noticed that some mob in the UK has copied his system and not 100% if its identical or not, but as with every system there are pro and cons.

The "pros" of the Autopot system, I will be basing this off the original system from Australia, is that it is one of the most convenient hydroponic systems I have come across to date.
  • no pumps or electronics (unless you use his automatic dosing system, which is more geared for aquaponics anyways)
  • easy to clean and maintain
  • kits are inexpensive and only moving part is the SmartValve, which is like a float valve inside another float valve.
The "cons";
  • I will mention this first as it is the major set back, you salt build up rises to the surface of your media, which in turn can percipitate back into your root zone
  • system cannot be flushed as it all regulated via a SmartValve and refills with nutrient solution accordingly.
  • I personally feel that the dry period for the roots is not long enough, so in turn reduces the lack of oxygen supply to the roots.
  • also because of the sub res on each pot to hold the SmartValve, That in an enclosed environment such as a grow tent or cupboard grow your humidity becomes too high during flower stage

This is wholly accurate. I am using florakleen at 3ml/L which has helped a lot with the salt build up and no it cannot be flushed which is a major problem.

True watt wise is 1922watts(How I who I hooked the the light to a Kill-a-watt meter) but Mars 2 watt rating is 1600 and 1200, which I have 2 1600 and 1 1200 in the middle.

  • Mars 2 1200watt actual power is 571watts
  • Mars 2 1600watt actual power is 667watts
and the 1600 was tested with both switches on it was 505watts with just the veg

That looks straight gravy on potatoes and that's my lingo for nice lol. I can't wait to see my flower 60 days from now already 5 days into flower but some strains will go a couple of weeks more and that's okay it will give me time to trim and then I'll be able to trim the last stuff
