At the moment I'm running 1 blumat maxi in a 7 gallon pot with promix. Works well. General issues are around day 20 - 30 I get one or more blumats that don't shut off and it fills up the tray by the next day, no idea why it happens. I turn it down a notch and its generally fine after that.
I am about to try some distributor drippers, not sure on 2 maxis per pot yet.
I run nutes through the blumats so around day 30 I replace the drip line.
As long as you follow the accepted instal procedure they are awesome but I check every single one daily, I would say they are not a set and forget setup for something more then a hobby grower.
Dave the way you have it setup with the drip line close to the blumat, I think that will mess up how it measures the pot wetness. If i did it I would aim the drip lines away from the blumat. I haven't done it though so if it works let me know.
Are those spots on your leaves thrips?
Can you post a complete pic of your ppk setup? I am anxious to set one up.
