My fabric pots are 11" high.The medium is living soil,10% worm castings, 444 & some perlite. I don't think I filled the pots enough. 2 of the pots are 4" below the top 2 are "3" below the top. The plants are autoflowers 4.5vweeks old. I have some hp50 & coco & perlite left over that I could fill them with. Should I be leaving them alone taking them out of the pots and filling the bottom, or filling the top ? Which mediam or combo should I use ?
Should i add more soil ?

Nice looking ladies. You definitely need to add more dirt for better root development, so they can absorb the nutes their going to require as they mature. Leave about an inch of head room for the food and water.
always fill to 1 inch from the top.

If you are using living soil you will need to top dress through the grow to add nutrients. So you should start low and build it up with top dressing over the grow time.
