This April I started growing two ladies (Special Queen 1) in two AutoPots. I bought solid premixed nutrients for the whole grow. And as a substrate I used coco. It was my most rewarding grow. Seeing both bushes in the summer sun has its very own appeal. Only downside is the clogging of the AutoPot system. The valves and pipes have to be cleaned regularly every 2-3 months to guarantee a good functioning flood and drain system. The biggest benefit is that it allows the plant to control its supply by itself. During hot summer days (~35°C) both plants were consuming 25L every day. On a balcony I would grow like that again.

    I love all of it bro!.

    Most of my existence is inside with deep water culture under an excessive amount of hps and mh bulbs, and the other parts are outdoors, nothing but fans blowing under the canopy to help keep bugs out and fungus from setting in…(I guess it’s modified outdoor at the point that you have fans, misters and drippers for the whole summer/fall… It’s just sun grown, in a semi permeable enclosure some of the time to reduce humid microclimates on the bud surfaces and keeping dust off them).

    It’s me controlling the environment the best I can out in the garden, without having to put the actual greenhouse walls up and install an air conditioner that is..

    Anyway, it seems like growing off your balcony is a good technique buddy, keep it up

    Edit: experience, not existence
