Like the title suggests im looking for peoples thoughts on normal pots vs air pots & coco vs 60/40 coco clay pebble mix.
My set up: 1.2mx1.8mx2m grow room, 600w hps, Growers Ark nutes inc flush, ATA booster and PK13/14, fans and filter
I started doing autos a few years ago and using coco in 15L normal pots and was getting so so results @2-3oz per plant, after talking to a grow shop owner i eventually moved to air pots & 60/40 coco clay pebble mix and i was then struggling to get @1-1.5oz per plant, i mainly do a mixture of plants each time but i had done a few plants the same in my last few non air pot grows and when i switched over to the new air pots i put 2 of them in, when they finished i noticed the weight difference ie under by @0.5-1oz per plant compared to the 3 i grew previously over the year in different grows, that was my last grow with autos.
I then decided to go back to 12/12 seeds as i always had decent results in the past using coco and normal pots but this time i was using the air pots & 60/40 coco clay pebble mix and again i struggled to get 2oz, 3 plants each got @50grams, the 4th got 3oz but the buds wasnt tight like the other 3 plants,
In the next couple of days ive got to pot up to my seedlings/young plants into 15L pots and buy the soil for it, but im not sure if i want to continue the way i am and im wondering if the switch from coco in normal pots to air pots & 60/40 coco clay pebble mix has had an effect on things?
I also used the same feeding schedule so i dont think its too much/lack of nutes etc, any info you guys have would be greatly appreciated
