I second the idea of looking into autopots and Jackā€™s. I switched to it and all in all I like the system. @Nicky is my go to for Autopot issues and there are a bunch of folks on the Jackā€™s program. There is a great YouTube video, kind of long but some amazing information on growing cannabis.

I second Jackā€™s nutrients as @Myfriendis410 stated.
Many on the forums are using it and its been used for years, itā€™s high quality cheated nutrients thatā€™s very cost effective and one of the simplest on the market to use.
Tons of support on it. You can use just it and then slowly build on attives, if you are to get one other additive I suggest a potassium silica product

Hey @Nicky I took your advice and pHā€™ed my water to 5.8 after adding Armor Si, then I added my Jacks then adjusted pH again to 5.8. Thanks

@ashhhh
How about calimag?
Also I noticed on your water schedules on water day your ph level was going in 7.1?
Was that to stabilize the ph coming out?

Good question but shouldnā€™t be done.
6.8 is the highest PH you should pour in soil.

If im using jacks 321, then I would use calmag only on days that im just watering and not feeding any nutrientsā€¦ Thats ONLY if im seeing any deficiencies. I was using 5 ml per gallon of General Hydroponics Calmag but was told thatā€™s too much and reduced it to 1.25.

My tap water is below 100 ppm so thereā€™s nothing to hold pH, therefore, no need to adjust pH. It will adopt the pH of whatever medium its being poured into.
