First time with autos, first grow in 15 years I planted 3 beans, auto northern lights, auto critical+, and auto destroyer. Critical+, and Destroyer just popped the surface FFOF and perlite 70/30 niemi-260w-led AC-Infinity-CLOUDLINE-T6 36-x-36-x72 tent 3 fans Really no action yet, boring seedlings 😉 ![IMG_20191001_182001](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/2/2/2219c6e7c537627e2842a33dd2e2c9438c4d6d03.jpeg) ![IMG_20191001_181940](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/6/f/6feae6ee8543a4a1c743d37c5f4421aefddbd9ce.jpeg) ---

Looking good! One thing I would consider before you move to the coffee cans, is putting more holes in them. They can be smaller, but I would add some. Especially on and near the bottom. ---

I did a transplant with the critical+ and destroyer, I wasn’t happy with the stretch, I used to use cfl’s for veg, I might go back to them on next run for veg, whole new experience with leds compared to my old hps. It’s like starting all over again 😉 Many holes on the bottom, I have some on the sides too, maybe not enough, I might go drill crazy on the sides, time for fabric I think 😉 @perezj17 yes, dimmed all the way down, I am a noob 😉 ![IMG_20191003_133309](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/6/f/6f3f49f5a6d17132a3e5580f75dc1ddcaff30e55.jpeg) ![IMG_20191003_133252](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/4/d/4d9d21018944367d87c6083e30e5b2c69d34802f.jpeg) ![IMG_20191003_133514](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/7/e/7e9c9c69f4596b9c89fd912e19fd0d0dfa422e86.jpeg) ![IMG_20191003_133428](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/b/c/bc0bd2fe1d4b212329d2ad6609655e5582dbeaa7.jpeg) Northern light (auto) that popped but I don’t think it’s going to make it, it’s deformed I think it’s dead Jim ![IMG_20191003_092715](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/1/3/13ae4bb867eeb5129a84b91192ff3642fcb83583.jpeg) ---

Yeah, fabric pots are cheap, too! You can get a 5 pack for like $10 on amazon. And I thought I had, but now I don’t think I did welcome you on another post, so welcome to ILGM! ✌ ---

hey what does anyone here have experience with AIRPOTS if so I would like to hear about your experience and how they also compare to the fabric pots ? ---

I think @Familyman uses airpots, or something very similar, anyway. He does great with them. His journal is here: [Familyman’s 5th Grow](https://ilgmforum.com/t/familyman-s-5th-grow/30709) ---

Airpots are the plastic ones that have bumps/dimples all over them. ---
