the Surcafe Blumat are keeping the bottom 2/3 of my pots what seems like perfectly moist, not wet not dry. All i have to do is check the reservoir pH and add a little pH down everyday, because it goes up on it's own i have not done SHIT on this grow,some lst and just refill the humidifier and blumat reservoir with phed tap water

I have bugs! i don't know what they are, but they are quick and jumpy. Neem oil did not slow 'em down at all. I'm in organic living soil so i'm not sure if bleach or peroxide treatment is an option. This is a video of the bottom of the saucer

Jumping bugs, they are called springtails. They thrive in moist soil, meaning you are over watering. Fortunately they are harmless for your plant. If you want to get rid of them, keep the soil on the dry side. Anyway, I've had them a couple of time with no harmful effect to the plants.

Do you not see any issue with watering from below? i could see if your are just using plain water, but once you introduce food to them you are going to have issues. Would you eat your dinner through your asshole?๐Ÿ˜ฌ your plant is just going to sit in its own waste than drink all the discarded shit right back up. Salts and such.

Thanks to those who invented the blumat ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™ I also left the plants alone for two weeks last year when I was traveling across the world When I came back they were better than before ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿ˜‰ Happy growing โœŒ๏ธ

@Psilocubensis, Humidity is at about 75% and temperature 85f, perfectly in the VPD range for fast growing, might sound crazy but this is my first grow with no bugs or mold

@@Dodgers, Great!!! Thanks for the complete answer ! I downloaded the site you sent me, and i'll sure save it in mind. I've searched for many ways to make auto wicking, auto watering, etc. This one is simple and great. How about pests or humidity inside the grow room?

@Psilocubensis, Yes, i'm going to try to make it short and simple, i never water de pots myself, the fabric pots are on a wet fabric mat. The whole watering of the plant happens here, the roots suck the water up to the plant, through the fabric pot, from the wet mat. The mat is kept wet by tubes dripping water onto the mat and the water disperses across the whole mat evenly, from a reservoir. The amount of "wetness" of the mat is controlled by a censor that shuts off the water when the mat is very wet, and turn the water flow back on once the mat is dry, and that is easily adjustable And remember one thing, setting this up is easy and CHEAP. The ultimate lazy grower shortcut for absolutely explosive growth with no work more detailed info here : autoflower.net/forums/threads/tommys-wet-microbes-grow-stinky-stanky-weed.61074/

@jmo33, i am using plain water, my soil ph is still at 6.3, so far so good! when i was watering normally to run off, the water would sucks back in, no issues there, if the plants get hungry i will feed with a fertilizer tea, from the top not the bottom, hopefully thats also going to work thanks for your input!

your soil ph will always be off and swing if your plants sit in a puddle of their own waste all day .

@jmo33, the blumat system allows for a pretty good wet/dry cycle, its not sitting in water, the mats has to dry out for the scensor to start dripping water again
