    Auto pot systems

    Anyone ever use this or know about this system? I'm seriously considering this for the 5 x 5. I want a few less , bigger plants in there now that I'm learning. I think 9 is perfect for that tent.
    They also make a version for cloth pots now.

    FurnaceBoi I grow with the Autopot system. I really like it. I just bought another 4 pot system for use in a 4x4 tent. I use the cloth pots and have grown with a 50/50 blend of soil and perlite and the hydroton for drainage. I'm probably going to a grow with coco/perlite and see how that goes. All in all autopot is a great system that addressed a problem I had with being around for regular hand watering.

      Ya it would really reduce my workload. I am currently hand watering 24 plants in 3 gals. Running 2 tents plus propagation.it looks like just what I need.

        I'll be interested in what you ultimately decide. For 24 plants thats a lot of hand watering. I'm sure you have thought about this, but have you considered the size of the reservoir? With four plants in the tent during the height of veg and flower I was putting about 5 gallons of water in the rez every 5-7 days. Which is OK as I am using the standard 12 gallon rez. With 24 plants a bigger rez might make the operation easier? I've wondered how Autopot would handle a grow like yours. In theory the number of pots in the system is irrelevant as long as gravity can do its thing.
