Mini Pail

Ganja_Zombie 5/31/25 Sprout popped out of Coco in 400ml Menards Mini Pail. -10:00pm fed with 100-150ml~ 1050EC 5.6pH Mix. -25-75ml~ runoff -QB96x2 at 320 watts -Light is like 46-54 inches away. Using the Photon App with a printer paper diffuser it says the top of the sprout is 320 ppfd. Trying to decide which system to use for watering. Printed a bunch of stuff including a AutoPot Tray that holds the Mini Pail and AquaValve5. Lightproof Lid. Pot Elevator if needed. Made a Irrigation ring and a bunch of things to hold it to the Mini Pail nicely. Connected to a LetPot WiFi Auto Watering System that allows me to set how many times it waters a day. It also provides a feature that when its watering schedule starts it can be done in intervals instead of continuously watering. I am leaning toward using the Auto Watering System over the AutoPot to avoid salt buildup. If I use the AutoPot I wonder if I would be fine if I topfed like 1000ml~ every Saturday Afternoon?

Ganja_Zombie 6-8-25 Same nute solution made in Week 1 being fed by the LetPot auto watering pump with a 3D printed irrigation ring. -100-200ml per watering. It has been watered 2~ times now with the system. -2s on | 6s off = 90-100ml dispensed. -Currently set to 4s on | 6s off to achieve more even / equal dispersion in pail not that I want more volume. -Added valve and 90° to irrigation line. Must check for leaks on next watering -Next watering planned for lights on @ 5PM 6-8-25 ------6-11-25 Update - Day 12 -Feeding on 6-8-25 happened with original nutrient mix to runoff -Made 1.8EC 1/2 Gallon of RO water that started at 0.4EC from CaliMagic - 5ml A, 5ml B, 4ml Rhizotonic. That mix was added to the original nutrient mix which made 1.3EC feed water. -6-10-25 fed to runoff with 1.3EC feed water after it was made. -6-11-25 through 6-13-25 has been on regular feeding 5on 5off for 1 min every night at 1:30am~

Ganja_Zombie 6-14-25 Saturday - Week 3 Start Still watering 1.3 EC water that has been made a while ago now. Nothing too special to report. 5on 5off for 1 minute is not enough water now, Will have to go to like 5on 3off or something. Maybe 3on 1off for better water distribution? 6-15-25 - Day 16 Watering at 6:05pm every night now, 1 hour after lights on. 5 minutes after 6 to avoid being on when wave makers in all the reservoirs are on. Accidentally watered at 5pm and 6pm today...No problem, it loved it. 3 on 2 off. Maybe go to 3 on 1 off now.

Ganja_Zombie 6-21-25 - Start of Week 4 Have been leaf tucking for pretty much the last week now or maybe even more. Starting showing sex / early pre flowering a day or few ago. Dropped Rhizotonic down to 2.5ml a gallon. New mix of 0.4EC CaliMagic'd RO water, 6.5ml A, 6.5ml B, 2.5ml Rhiz on 6-19-25. 1.275EC ~. 5on 2off auto waterer. 6-26-25 - Update Flowering started on Monday~ this week. Watering 2+ per light cycle. Missed some watering and was only watering at 1.3EC at the beginning of the week which I think contributed to minor lower leaf yellowing. Upped to 9ml / 1 gal of A+B. 2ml of Rhizotonic. Next feed mix will contain 7ml~ of bloom. Comes out to 1.5EC+~

Ganja_Zombie 6-28-25 - Start of Week 5 Feeding 1.5 EC with 2ml Rhizotonic~. Flowering for about a week now. Watering 2-3 times a day 3 on 2 off. 6pm, 12am, 6am. Doing really good.
