Getting real close to the end of this grow, looking like maybe a few more days or so. Haven't been giving it anymore silica,CalMag or girl flower power just straight pH'd water. I will continue to monitor and check the trichomes daily. I should've cleaned up the dead fan leaves before I took pictures but I'll get to that later.
Curious about your experience with the ac infinity self watering bases, I just started using them for my current grow and I ran into issues due to over watering of all things. I had spoken with one of their reps who said he uses them in his grows so I followed his directions and ran into issues in short order but live and learn so I now know not to simply keep the bases full as the wicking action will suck up all the water up into the soil in less than 24hrs, I stupidly filled the bases with 1 gallon of water into each of them, then 3 days later refilled the bases with another gallon of water (without thinking to check how heavy the pots were .....) then another 3 days later when I was about to pour another gallon into each of the bases I checked the pots and realized they weighed over 20lbs and were saturated. I ended up not being able to water any of the plants for over 14 days as it took a hot minute for the plants to use what they wanted and for the fabric pots to dry out enough so that I could get them back on a regular schedule. Now I know for my next grow to start them out with 1/2 gallon at the most being poured into the bases and also to check how heavy the pots are before blindly adding more water into the bases. Thankfully this over-watering experience only seemed to have seriously effected one out of the five plants I've got growing atm, Had not expected this to happen as everyone told me it was impossible to over water the plants using these bases
@LostToFollowUp, I had one plant that loved it and one plant that hated it. One plant would drink a gallon every other day the other one took forever. I was told by a few people to every couple days or so rotate the pots so that way the wicks wouldn’t stick to the bottom of the pot, so I would always get a feel of how heavy they were. I started using them around day 23 and ditched them after a few weeks bc of the inconsistency between the two plants. Someone told me that Sativa Autoflowers were very picky with them which is probably what happened with me. Definitely willing to give them another shot just maybe implement them further down the road closer to flower.
