Lazy Gardening
I use a scaled out version of the following based on https://autopot-usa.com/ technology
Setup
- Fill reservoir with water
- Connect host from reservoir to autopot
- Fill pot with 1/2 clay pebbles and 1/2 coconut fibers to the halfway point
- After 2-3 week fill the pot higher to help stabilize plant
- Put in Plant
- Reservoir should need filling every week. It all depends on how thirsty the plant is.
- You can just have it filled with water for a week. Good for when you need to leave town and house sitters can’t measure or do math.
Notes
- The reservoir tank needs to be about 6 inches higher than the pot
- Try to get the pot a little bit off the ground so it’s not a hot surface.
Nutrients that go in the water
Mix in after you fill reservoir to top with water
This replaces all the good stuff that is in soil. I use General Hydroponics Products.
GH Flora Series’ General Hydroponics 32oz
General Hydroponics CALiMAGic 1-0-0
Add one at a time and stir good in between.
- Calimag – 50 ml

- Flora Micro – 100ml

- Flora Grow – 50ml
- stir
- Flora Bloom – 50 ml

Give the plant sun. Doesn’t have to be direct sun all day.
