Very cool system. I unfortunately made a mistake with my chemicals and blocked the entire system with sludge.... MY fault but I lost a crop, I sold my system to a friend who absolutely loves it! He brought a massive system for his greenhouse. He raves about his veges 👍
I’ve seen people wrap a cheese cloth around it but the fact remains that roots can grow through concrete so in the end, nothing will really stop them from getting in there. I wouldn’t worry about it too much.
We suggest turning on the Air Pump two weeks after turning on your system. Ideally, you want your plant to acclimate to the bottom feeding environment that AutoPot creates before turning on your Air Pump / AirDomes.
Also, run them on your light timer so the Air Pump turns on when you lights are on, and turns off when your lights are off. You don't want to run the AirDomes 24/7, only when your lights are on.
Love this , I’ll increase my mixture , was doing 70/30 mix with coco , but excited to try a 50/50
Very nice.. haven't tried the air domes but love all my pots.
great tips & thank you, I love my Autopots & the air domes certainly do increase yields ive found 😎
Great info. Thank you.

Any tips on keeping the Airdome from becoming totally blocked by roots?
Roots avoid copper.

Yeppp, if you get thin copper and "wrap" it, roots will not grow further...
@@skankhunt420but together with nutrient solution the copper dissolves easy and is absorbed. Copper overdose is the result. Not good.
How would it look like in the 100% coco if the pump would provide 1L/min instead of 20L/min?
What if i got the big pump, can i still use the big pump with my 6x 35L flexipots ? I want to use it for the other 9 Plants later.
Why would you not aerate the water in the reservoir? Why do it on a per pot basis?
Great video.
Soil/hydroton 50/50 mix good?
Yes that’s a great mix to use in the system
When in the grow cycle do you suggest turning the Airdomes on? Also, running them during lights off?
I do mine from day 1 once I turn on the system, remember to top feed for the 10 days after transplant 🤜🏻

Be great if you had an auto pot outlet in AU.
So it doesnt work with living soil ?
It overwaters living soil.
How often and for how long do you recommend running the air domes?
Turn them on two weeks after you turn on your system. Run them on your light timer so they turn on/off with the lights.
Pumice/Coco 50/50 good ?
Yes that will work to create a nice, light, airy mix
@@autopotusa Thank you.
