Feeding plants at different stages

So my current grow I have two plants on my Autopot system. Unfortunately they are at different stages of growth. One plant is in full flower the other is just starting flower. So with plants at different stages they need different nutrients which creates a problem using Autopots. I could leave one on the reservoir and hand feed the other but this would be inconsistent compared to how the Autopots function. I could order another reservoir and run two different nutrients but another reservoir is more costly than your typical 5gal bucket. I have an inexpensive solution for this. My solution is I ordered a couple of reservoir filters and top hats for the reservoir (I have extra hose) and will install these into 5gal buckets which I will use as temporary reservoirs holding whatever nutrient solution any stage of growth would need. Hoping this helps other Autopot users who run into similar issues.

I think @Myfriendis410 uses autopots…

Yes he does.

I run autopots with Jack’s. No change between veg and flower. Maybe switching nutrient lines to that would solve your problem?

I’m using Jack’s also just not the 3-2-1. I use the tap water version. I spoke with them and they recommended using the 15-5-20 and switching to a bloom booster during flower. I’ve run this method a couple of grows now and it works really well for me. When I was using the 3-2-1 I always had issues from flower on.
