I’ve bought this kit from Growbuds. It’s a good system but I’d recommend adding an air stone or air pump to the resevoir to keep the nutrients and water fresh. First time use, i planted directly into the autopot, but had much better success when transplanting the seedlings into them around day 30. The roots tapped into the nutrients much quicker and avoided any stress.

Air stone changes the pH I use dakine 420 nutes clean man an foiler from them that knocks out any lock out but low nutes so I won't get lock out

Circulate or stir, but don't bubble. Air will tweak the pH quickly.

how does the water go from tray to the inner-side of the pot? does the pot have any vent at the bottom of it?
@16thdave4 жыл бұрын
yes the pot has slats on the bottom for roots to penetrate
@Dr_Peeper_ICU3 жыл бұрын
@@16thdave This is not correct. Roots are not supposed to penetrate in this system, otherwise you risk clogging the valves. The whole point of the pebbles is to air prune the roots and wick water up. Same with the copper disc, that is to prevent roots from penetrating. I am installing their Fabric (Spring Pot XL) version today and instead of a copper disc they have a perfectly fitting copper sock that goes around the bottom of the fabric pot.

yeah, follow directions carefully in set up, and if using clay pebble wash thoroughly first and soak in a quarter strength mix of feed, also check ph, clay pebble (here anyway) is alkali

@Calvin black tubing is best to avoid alge.
@timpage50214 жыл бұрын
@Calvin Yea I use all thst too. Rinse and clean res and bucketseverychanging every week. . But if you're useing clear tubing it only takes 48 hours sometimes less for alge to appear. Its thr fastest living organism on the planet. Ask anyone who's been growing for decades like myself and all will tell you black plastic is the universal standard. Sure you could use brown blue or green just so long as its never clear. They're are however a few goofy Chinese companies who will market DWC and RDWC and hydro set-ups that include clear tubing. But that's because they're not real growers and simply just don't know any better. Have you tried this set up bro? I been thinking about giving it a try just for something different. If you've tried it how you like it compared to DWC or Recirculating? I'm leery on putting compost in they suggest tho lol. But a mix of coco and cyco hydroton or Sunshine no.4 Roots Organics or Simply Promix.

Last year I Purchased 5 oscillating 6 inch fans. After receiving them 2 of them did not work So I contacted growbuds and they replaced the 2 defective ones. A few days later another 3 stopped working And I never received any response from them. After numerous emails I still did not get a response because now I have 7 fans that are not working. I would never buy anything from them again. I also purchased 6 spider farmer lights from them Hopefully I will never have a problem with them. Dealing with their customer service is a total nightmare. If you need to purchase anything please I beg you go elsewhere.
