Automated water System for a 2x4

So I have a spider farmer tent. (Oversized version)

lights, inline fan and controller is AC infinity.

I’ll be using Coco/perilight on fabric pots.

Would I be best off getting autopots? Or would I be fine getting the spider farmer version ?

Thanks I’m advance!

I use Auto Pots as do many forum members, I highly recommend them.

Since I’m using fabric pots, should I get the autopot geo pot 2? Or would you recommend a different autopot?

Any other things I should grab for it?

I use either the 3 or 5 gallon auto pot fabric bags. I prefer the 3 g bags, less coco needed and the 3 gal in coco is enough media to grow a big plant.

For extras a valve for each pot so you can turn off individual pots. A valve at the exit of the res so you can do maintenance. And I use the air bases in the bottoms instead of chunky perlite or hydroton.

Are you referring to the aquavalve?

The set comes with 2 of them, so I should order a 3rd? Or 3 additional?

The kit will have everything you need. You dont need an extra base. My suggestion was for some extra valves for your set up. I also bought the air bases for the pots, not needed if you line your bag with hydroton, I like the bases and they are re usable. Your kit comes with 2 valves, I would order 2 more.

The 2 pot system with the reservoir will have everything you need to get started. The air valves aren’t needed with a fabric pot
