I want to "automate" a 24 plant system and those are what I am looking at. I love the idea of under feeding with the auto-pot, but I also like being able to just take my pot/bag and just throwing it out at the end of the grow which makes blumats attractive.
Blumat concerns and questions.
1) It says that if you knock into your pot and the spike moves it can create an air-gap and you're screwed. Bumping into shit in the garden? Who me? Blumat users, is this an actual concern or has it never happened to you?
2) Is one emitter per pot enough?
3) Can I use any medium including my beloved pro-mix?
Auto-pot concerns and questions.
1) Do you really need that air-stone addition to the pots?
2) Pics of them always show them off-set in rows, can you just cut the line and have them balanced as well? I'm assuming you can.
And questions to both types, how many times has something failed and you've got a flood?
Thank you.
