    Default Problems with Blueberry Auto

    Hello Everyone

    This is just my second grow so I am fairly new at the art.

    I have run into problems with one of my Blueberry Autos. This the first time I have used a fabric pot, although I am not sure if that has any bearing on the poor state of my lady. But her sisters, planted at the same time, are having no problems but they are in plastic pots.

    Thanks for your guidance.

    hello clover

    firstly thanks for writing a clear question, lots of great info there
    fabric pots will need watering more often than plastic pots as water evaporates from all over the pot (not just the top) as well as what the plants use.
    i use biobizz soil, nutes and fabric 20l pots myself and i tend to water 1litre of feed every 2 or 3 days.
    the best way to tell is to lift the pot up as it'll be really light when it needs watering.
    also if you measure how much you water plants, over time you can figure out exactly how much they use each day and knowing when to water
    becomes super easy

    I would go ahead and pick up that pot, a 17 l pot should be very heavy if it's too wet. If it's not very heavy then you need to water it fully which means it would be wet on the outside of the fabric pot. Then you don't want it to sit in that run off you want it to be elevated above or something. I would think you could go about 4 days between waterings with about that size.
