I have a bottle of FloraKleen from when I used to flush, and now I occasionally use it to soak my pumps before cleaning or flush my coco if I have an imbalance. Is it doing anything? I have no idea.

What you thought was rootbound was probably your coco packing down from watering. I noticed that if I filled the pots too fast there would be a bubbling, and then my drainage would clog up from there on out. It was a huge hassle, and it would take forever to get any runoff. Sometimes this would happen early on in the cycle and I would have to deal with it for months.

Like fucking 5 mins to see run off lol, we was using a water lance with a pump so good for extra aeration.

I realize coco is hydro is just want to get away from wasting all this water, since we've moved here we've used s swimming pool worths :? Jokes on me for not having bought a pump for my ro filter sooner... :wall:

I'm talking like 20 minutes or longer towards the end. I would have to hit it, move on, hit it again, move on, ect ect over and over.

Holy smokes dude and I thought I'd been having nightmares with feeding :shock:
So it basically took 3 hours to water in the end ? o_O

You mean some kind of recirculating system then. Most people will advise again reusing waste water. Cannabis takes a lot of H2O. It's all 6 one way and a half dozen the other.

No, it would be like 20 or so minutes all together. It was like an early version of a Brita filter. I actually packed my coco down the first time I used it, and that was a very bad idea.

Yes, just food for thought something to maybe experiment with, I realize you need some serious equipment and knowledge to keep a system like that running.

Sorry for hijacking the thread op, just look up Harley Smith on youtube he mentions citric acid as an excellent flushing agent in his lectures, I ain't no expert which is why I try to follow their advice, good luck.

There are people on here who do it. Start a thread and I'm sure they'll jump in.

For the record you did come off a little combative. Couple that with confidently pushing bad info and you're going to get eaten up.

I was getting shredded wasn't I ? Way to baked to even realize :peace:

Thanks man good looking out. I'm all for people correcting me though if I'm wrong I'm wrong.

I just don't get what they are saying, it's not 100% clear to me atm. So I get defensive cause, I'm confused.
