Good news everyone,
well actually good news, the automated watering system is working quite fine.
Should check the pH of our stock.
I am a bit worried about the placement of the pots, they could get more sun if I'd move them, but it was a struggle to get zip ties through my deck, no one wants a toppled pot, just because someone was too lazy anchor the system properly.
On the other hand, the deck needy cleaning anyways, so I might as well move them.
So much work ^^

"automated" watering my arse, lol.
now that the sun is shining all day again we need a lot more water than before, I think the device has a daylight sensor, I should look into that.
Watering at night is a bit pointless, the pot still has its reservoir.

did refill the reservoir with fresh fertilizer, the pH did drift a bit, "organic" fertilizer

Baby is thirsty, my interval switch has a daytime only function, did switch to 2 minutes every four hours, daytime only.
let's see how this goes.
Every time I have a plant of a fairly decent size I am amazed of how much water they actually consume.

interval watering is wasteful, Daddy is not pleased, but hey our baby likes it.

tuned the watering interval, Daddy ist pleased, outdoor weather ist way less stable than a growbox, will continue to tweak the timing
@Doctors_Choice, Thank you a lot, I am very hyped and so far as I can tell the seedling is feeling very happy, nice dark green leafs, short stem, good rooting.
Normally I would not stress or train an auto strain as they veg life cycle is so short, but is there any technique that you would recommend for you particular strain?
What says breeder's about his "ideal" flowering time ? i kinda feel german outdoor might be more like 2-3 weeks longer .... reviewing my recent grow...
@JohnPorno, I think It should be about 11 weeks form seed to harvest.
To be honest, I could have harvest last week, and I am growing on the shaded north side of our house.
I am quite sure, that the grow, if I would have used the lazor sun side, would have either burned or be already harvested.
But to be honest, I do not enjoy working in the modern German summer sun^^
