AutoPot Photo Run

[bboyfromwayback]

1 day old sprouts of Apple Fritter and Blue Dream from ILGM and Cheddar Cheese from Pylos. I’m still waiting for the Durban Poison to sprout.

I’ll be using AutoPots, a cocoa/perlite mix and the GH Flora trio plus CaliMagic and Armor Si.

Right now they’re under 150w T5’s, they’ll eventually be under a Gorilla Xi750.

First run with the Gorilla light? It looks like a good one.

This will be its first run. I actually ordered a Kind X750 but it was back ordered then eventually a rep called to say that light was discontinued so they were going to send me the newest version.

This light definitely has too many bells and whistles for me. I’m an old analog guy who doesn’t trust digital timers so I definitely won’t be using the digital features on this light. Complete 4x4 coverage with 750w plus separate IR and UV switches is what got my attention

[golfnrl]

I hear ya about the analog. I like technology and use it but sometimes the old ways are the best ways. I hope you have a great grow with your new light.

Thank you! I did my research before deciding on the Kind X750, hopefully this newer version performs the same 🤞🏻

There’s a lot of ‘smart’ devices in my house and they do make life easier. When it comes to timers, especially ones that could screw up my grow, I’m keeping it old school lol

NebulaHaze it took a few extra days for the Durban Poison but I officially have a 4 banger now 😁

Week old sprouts

[bboyfromwayback]

2wk old sprouts. I’ll put them on the reservoir in a few more days

[bboyfromwayback]

Day 19….we’re topped and on the reservoir.

The plants look good.

Do you like the new trays? With the top hat grommet on the side? I just received 4 of them.

[Ckbrew]

The pipe goes through a rubber grommet? Try lubricating it with glycerin. Slippery but rinses off easy with water. No oil residue.

[golfnrl]

Yeah, autopot calls it a pipe. It's really a 3/8" rubber tube/hose. Hadn't thought of glycerin, that would do the trick, spit worked in a pinch. LOL.

[bboyfromwayback]

I just use spit for the install. Sometimes a lighter is needed to heat the tubes when removing them off the splitters
