I'm using the AC Infinity Self Watering Fabric Pot Base, with 5 gallon pots next grow. How often would you suggest feeding them nutrients, and would you give it to them in the reservoir or top feed?

AutoPot system: moisture of the medium does not stop increasing if turned on
I noticed the moisture of the medium (50% coco, 50% light mix, based on a layer of expanded clay) is getting higher and higher with the AutoPot system (now at ~45%). I stopped it for now. I'm wondering, if that is normal? What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions someone?

Organic slow-release fertiliser tablets
Bought tabs with slow-release for 10-12 weeks -> usage 30gr/1 ounce per plant. Should I mix it with pre-fertilized soil of 3 weeks? (15L/4gallon pot) Their Customer Support told me the plants would be fine. I have to mix it in the beginning. Possibility for overfeeding????

Adding nutrient to autopot aquavalve reservoir
I use autopots which bottom feed my plants. I am starting to feed them flower Fuel NPK 1-34-32. Its recommended to be top fed 1.5gs per 3ltrs of water. So my question is, can I add 1.5g to the small reservoir which is located where my aquavalve is instead of top feeding them?

Turning Autopot System on and off ?
On which day after germination would you turn on the Autopot system and stop watering from above? The instructions said 7-10 days, but that wasn't enough for me. Would you turn the Autopot system on and off in the first weeks or leave it on all the time?

Autopotsystem
Is it possible that the pH fluctuations in the tank of the Autopot system make the nutrients unabsorbable? With the bio line from greenhousefeeding all nutrients should actually be available in sufficient quantities.

Ph que oscila solo y ec muy elevada
Hey everyone, I have a parameter that doesn't seem to add up. Why are the plants' pH dropping over the days? I leave it at 6.2 and in two days it's at 5.7. Why does the EC of the water I change reach such high levels? It comes in at an EC of 3 and goes out at an EC of 6.45.
