I know that if I read all 2226 post I would probably find my answer but I am impatient, that is one of the reason I smoke, slows me down.
I am not a new grower, I have years of growing outdoors and have been growing indoors for 5+ years.
Outdoors was all native soil organic grows, indoors I have gone from my very attempt was in DWC, what a fuckup that was, listened to salesman. He ended up selling me organic fert, I had 6 every nice strains gifted me by a friend. They got root rot so bad, it was very ugly.
From there I went to a soil smart pot grows, not to bad, decent yield and good bud, Querkel. Then I discovered Manifold/Manline growing and did my another grows using that technique. All of my grows since then has been using that technique but I have gone to using coco (not Canna) Hempy's. Not bad grows, but have a few problems, most my fault.

I am wanting to change methods of grow in an attempt to improve both yield and quality.
I am growing in a DYI cabinet, 4' x 2.5' x 6'. My thoughts are to use 3 gallon Smart Pots/Canna Coco & nutes, two plant SCrog using DTW. I have read to add a layer of the clay pebbles to the bottom for better drainage, not sure if I need that as I have wire stands that are one inch off the floor and just the perfect size to fit the Smart Pots. So I guess that is my first question, is using the pebbles necessary?
I am used to watering/nute my Hempy buckets by hand daily or every two days dependent on growth but from what I understand I need to water/nute the straight coco during veg 3 to 4 times and during flower up to 5 times per day. So do anyone have any idea how to build a DIY DTW water system for a coco SCrog grow? I plan on using Canna A&B at the manufacturer's recommended rates. Is this a good idea or is it to high a rate of nutes.
I need it simple and dependable.
That would be nothing like our government!
If there is an experienced Canna Coco grower out there that would like to take on a protege and teach "Grasshopper" the best methods? I am an ol' dog but I can learn new tricks!
Peace out,
