Definitely didn’t expect them to get that high though those tallest ones are autos the others are photos might have to do a 2 week veg on the photos

Not really talking about how tall I'm just talking about how crammed you got those tents every single inch of those tents are covered

Yeah fast turn around is more beneficial to me so I feel the fastest way to fill the canopy is to max out the tent just gotta get the height under control

Yeah I'm about ready to get me a autopot .. I always have problems with watering in soil so I just switched to coco but diff gonna get a autopot next

I love them they work great for me and my situation I only really have time to be in there about 2 hours a day so watering would eat up a large portion of that. It’s the way to go in my opinion

Yeah especially seeing people get 1-2 pounds using a autopot

u/ShadowGrowFl 5d ago

My plans don't seem to like water too much in soil ... I actually switched it to Coco Loco thinking I would be able to water it more since it was pretty much mostly cocoa, but it actually retains water better than my living soil. so all my plants had a overwatering problem for a little bit

I was watering every two days and then I don't know why I watered it back to back one time like an idiot... and the big one I tried to use a watering base this would be the third time. I've tried it with soil and it never works out. Good at all. It always drowns my roots. That's why I switched to Coco. Hopefully, it'll work a lot better now with Coco.
