Really, on a self watering base?Top dress dry amendments.
The ones ya put fabric pots on, ac infinity i believe. Yep i noticed some build up on the bottoms of the base too when I had to adjust some rope . I’m gonna do it that way going forward. ThanksTop feed. Or at least top feed to runoff once a week. Which self watering bases are you referring to?? I've used auto pots and mixed nutrient solution in the reservoir. Ended up with a pretty bad nutrient salt build up in the soil. Gave them a good flush and started top feeding once a week to runoff. Worked
Love their products, my tents all have ACI intakes/exhausts, clip fans, humidifiers and I think their Controller 69 is one of the best automation devices on the market.Yeah I'm familiar with those. Ac infinity Makes some good products. Their good
From what I saw in mine,it would take quite a bit of movement. But I was filling the bases every other time with nuittrents . Fox Farm Big Blossom is like oatmeal colored and that’s what I think I noticed probably some other mineral build up too. Made me want to take each one out and clean out the bottom before flower, but I’m lazyI'm trying the ACI self-watering bases in my smaller tent. I just did my last top watering and going to start using bases tomorrow.
I'm using GH Flora series, I'm going to mix them in and see what happens.
Do you think adding an aerator or something to agitate the water/nutes would help with anything?
If I see build up, I might just use the bases as runoff trays.
I want to setup Netafim Netbows in my 8x4 next grow so could run them to the 55"x28" tent as well and won't have to worry about something for runoff and I'll use the water meter to know when to drain them.
