Canción de Hielo y Fuego ️

High, I do have a closet with automatic irrigation system. I use this one when I go on a holiday or won't be home for a few days. This is really convenient. I would also use it when you have a lot of plants because otherwise giving water is taking forever. And the system is more accurate with the amount that you want to give. When you just have a few plants and you will be home anyways I prefer giving water manualy. The reason why is that I get to see my plant every other day. So I do notice problems and I can do a quick check on her and how moist the soil is compare to the last time. Happy Growing! 😋

I use automated feeding, 3 drippers each 12.5l air pot, return system trays and brain pump unit,with Flexi nutrients tank and pump, I also use nutrimatic timer,that has set feed patterns you control the seconds it feeds repeatedly over a day aiming for run off a couple of hours from lights off,works for me. Good for use in tent grows with little access. I use Coco/perlite and aqua balls, pretty hard to over water. Need checking for blockages from calcium and other feed contents, I use ATAclean. Fairly easy to set up, recommend owning a wet vac. My diary has a set up from week 3 or 4 and is close to the result.

saves time.. more important the larger your garden is... watering 2-4 midsized plants isn't so bad. 10 gallons a week? you start having to mix 20-30-40-50+ gallons and all of a sudden it starts saving a shitload of time. unlike what they advertise, it's probably going to waste more water than you used before... if if meticulously callibrated, someting will always cause a change of flow rates etc etc.. and you gotta time it for the worst possible scenario. if you want to do frequent irrigations, it's a must no matter the size of the garden unless you can be there 3x day after some X% dryback topping it off. you'll get hydro-like growth doing that, but also invites more risk with microbes and pests. convenience... can be cheap and easy with pump, tubing and hand controls etc or get someting you can control via wifi or over internet.. cycle timers etc etc... just depends on how far you want to go down that rabbit hole.

Yep, you sure can! Well, as long as you don't plan on switching the light schedule. I hear autoflower want a stress free environment and the same light schedule in flower as they have in veg. Just thought I'd give you a heads up. I hope this helps.

High, Yes that is very smart to do! When you have the space and the lights are burning anyways make use of it. Nothing can happen, they both need 18/6 light so they both will be happy. Happy Growing! 😋

I have done this and it worked out well for me. I did not plan out how big they got by the time the photoperiods where finished and it was tight but manageable. Its also good to place aorund 1 plant in your tent for every 100w your light pulls. Good Luck & Happy Growing!
