You are having quite alot of water coming out of those tubes. Isn't that getting your rockwool too wet?
Plus you have multiple seedlings in one pot. You are going to get your roots tangled and won't be able to separate them.
the only reason theres multiple seeds in one pot is to see which ones do well...im not keeping like 12 plants in 6 spots...thats just for like this week maybe next depending on which ones die off and which ones do great. im not that much of a newbie lol this is my first bubbleponics but not my first grow....and i can slow the flow of the water but what do yall think? it doesnt seem like they are too wet..but i dn yall tell me

Well I am a newbie and am currently doing a bubbleponics grow. I started using feeer tubes stuck in the side of my rockwool and noticed it was getting too wet. I stopped using using the feeder tubes and let the mist from the bubbles keep the hydroton and rockwool wet. It seemed to help with the growing as the roots had to search for water.
But I am new to this and would wait for the other bubbleheads to give their opinion.

In this system, the cubes stay wet.
and the roots can tangle, it is OK. It is ok to cut them too.
thats what i figured....cus rockwool is really good at holding air...and water...so i take it it doesnt matter how much water is coming outa the tubes? and i figured the roots would tangle newayz later on in growth being that 6 plants that have almost unlimited room to grow would end up tangling newayz...but regardless it will only b 6 not 12 or 14 like i have in there now....the only reason they are there now is to see which do the best. thx roseman ill keep ya up to date any comments would help and im on pg 5 of ur instruction manual and continue to keep reading when i have more time...but until i finish it i still may need some of ur help thx alot for the info so far

Liquid Karma is a catalyst or a supplement, to be added to GRow Nutes in very small doses. If oyu use a lot of it, it will clog the tubes adn pump, it is sticky gouey mess if you use a lot of it. I wait until the night before a Drain and REplinish Day, then use 1/4. I also use a lot of, full dose, the last two weeks of Flowering. It nakes the water turn brown, but that is OK.

I have used Fox Farm, but you need to use it right. Go to the Fox Farm site and look at the feeding schedule. You will need ALL 3 for vegging: Grow Big, Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom and mix it as directed. THEN use a ppm and a pH meter to adjust to the proper numbers:
When to switch to flowering, then use these: Open Sesame, Beastie Bloom and Cha-Ching:
These all have pH buffers and if you use ro water, you'll find your pH goes really low, like in the low 4's. You'll need to pH it every day or 2. I use General Hydroponics liquid pH up & down....
