Thanks bro, for the 5 gal bucket, what were you using as an insert?
I used a 31 lb kitty litter bucket - not sure how many gallon those are. Are you referring to the paint strainer he uses? Honestly, I just skipped that part - it didn't really seem necessary. A little bit of perlite came out of the spout initially, but not very much. After that very little came out.

No way in hell I'm gonna be able to move that to the other cabinet for flowering so she is gonna flower right where she sits.
For some strange reason the drain is not draining at all. So its just filling with nutrient solution. I suppose I won't need to add any for a couple of weeks now....

Shit!
Do you have something like a strong wire that you can push through the outlet until it's free again?
Stagnant water eventually becomes foul with the time and can cause root rot..

I finally got it unclogged and its cycling now. Just had to rap on the tube a few times and it came gushing out. I had to drain out several gallons of solution into large clothes washing detergent containers - lucky I had those nearby.

Its all good now.

As Humple points out, the 300 is a bit hot for that size. A much better fit would be the 200WX6 layout. Size on it is 24 x 16 inches, a comfortable fit for your size space.
