Day 26:

Turned the autopot system on.

First two pots closest to the reservoir filled up swiftly and then the float came up so I know it was full. The other two furthest away, filled up to a certain amount and then stopped filling up. I even pressed on the top valve/float to see if more water would come up but nothing.

I then unseated both valves and you could see there was plenty of pressure and water was gushing through. I reseated all the silicone bits and placed them back on to the trays. Still no difference. Not sure whats going on...which i hate. I've left it all set up and Ill check tomorrow.

Thank you. Just need to get this autopot issue sorted :( but yes they seem to be doing well. Need the stems to grow a little more to LST around the pot.

Day 28:

Light dimmer upped from 40 to 50%
Distance: 41inches from canopy

The runt is taking off and actually looking like a proper plant. Love how it has the split stem!

The res ph is 5.5 no change from yday when I ph downed it too much. Tray ph is 6.2 which indicates that they havent started drinking from the trays yet. Although i did flood the pots 2 days before I turned the sysrem on and the coco is still moist. Its probabaly taking slightly longer for th3 roots to find the bottom and only will do once the coco starts to dry out..

Day 29:

Some more LST training.

Ph in tank is stable at 5.5 after the other day I accidentally lowered it too much. Much more stable that NFT that I was getting. I don't have any circulation pumps or air stones in the res either. NFT I had a circulator and heater - maybe that could have been a factor - back then I had too many factors so as a beginner it was a stupid headache I didn't need. Over the years I've learnt to start simple.

Noticed a couple of my small leaves had bits in them. I've removed them. I've got a flyer catcher, but as I write this I've noticed it's hanging in the tent, so if it's a bug that can't fly then it's useless - anyone have any tips of anything I can leave in the tent/near pots to repel bugs and crap?

Adjusted the hysteris on the heater - was set at 1.0c, changed to 2.0c so the heater will turn on if temps reach 20c, heat up to 22c and then turn off.

I may have to go away for a week - thankfully I have the autopot this time if it starts kicking in.

The tank seems to be at the same level since the day I installed it, as the ph is still 5.5 in the tank, and 6.2 at the pots, meaning it hasn't drank the first fill up since I turned it all on. Maybe the roots haven't been fully established yet, but they aint DEAD yet? Must be okay, as it has been almost a week since I turned the pots on!
