Watering question

Any recommendations on an automatic watering system for this pot? My fear is the bottom is soaked and the top is dry. Hopefully just paranoid.

hey there Nickerbaucker, think of it this way : sometimes it doesnt rain for a month over summer and naturally grown cannabis doesnt die, so what's happening ? basically the roots are much longer than we think and they may hit an underground water feature , so it's totally fine if the bottom is soaked but the top gets dry . the problem is when there is water mold or other pests and bad stuff getting in there. that's why if you go the (much easier and doable) bottom feeding route you might want to add some beneficial bacteria in there just to make sure they regulate any kinds of mold you might get. Realistically with what you're doing you'll have to build your own "tripple ring top feeding system" or just hand water it. I use autopots, but something you can also do is put them on a deepish tray and water the tray directly, add some clayballs or perlite to prevent some of the evaporation. That sort of thing, hope this helps ! šŸš€

Hi, perfectly agree with @DasBoof about watering. It's a rarity to see clover inside the pot as amendant. My opinion is you are doing a great thing. Competition. The total amount of humidity is now to be divided by two because clover will attracts and sucks humidity taking it away from your beloved buds. This is called "integrated farming" against mold. Good luck
