I’m starting my second grow today - three LSD Autos. I’m using A Pot For Pot again, things went so well with grow #1 using them, I figured I’d get another grow under my belt before I went to all coco, which I plan for grow #3.
My setup: Cloudlab 3x3x6, Bloom Plus 300W LED, two 5 gallon PFP, and one 2 gallon.
I gave the 2 gallon pot a light dose of Grow Dots. I’ve been watching a few grows that use them, and I’m all for keeping it simple. I’ve prepared the PFP according to directions, though I did add some additional perlite and Mykos. The pots have been resting in the tent while their sister Lucy finished in her smaller tent.
I had good results using Recharge throughout my first grow, so I’m stocked with that.
The seeds went into water late on 1/26, and I moved them to the paper towel last night as all three had cracked. After morning coffee over here, I’m popping them into their pots. I set up with “banana peeled” bottomless cups embedded into the topsoil of the PFP - hopefully as a way to eliminate any transplant stress, as I’ll just slip out the “peels” once the plants have established. I’m trying this since Lucy was a shortie at 20 inches, and I suspect I transplanted a bit too late.
I made .5 inch holes in the topsoil and lined them with Mykos. I had had to give about a half cup of pH 6.5 water with Recharge to the two larger pots, a quarter cup for the little one. The small pot is A, the two larger are B and C. I’ve got names picked out, but for now just the letters until they grow.
The monster filter is vented to outdoors, and will help with the excess heat the light puts out, which is why I hung it at lamp height. I tested last night and the light at soil level is currently set for 10 DLI, which should be plenty for sprouting. (I’ll double check that before dropping seeds.) There is also an intake fan that I didn’t order, but was sent to me instead of the window vent kit I did order. I don’t mind as it’s a 400 CFM. Early tests shows that set on low it will blow the tent up like a balloon. I’ll have to work on the balance between filter and intake.
So, I’m going to tag a few people who followed my first grow, I apologize if I missed anyone - and welcome!

I hope I got everyone. Early morning bleary eyed stoner blues over here.
