I have the greentrees model multiflow bucket system. I have 4 girls under 1000hps, they are 4 days into flower, and my roots have completely filled the outer bucket. I flipped them at 18".
They are doing awesome, should I worry about them being rootbound already?
I was thinking of raising them up an inch or so with PVC.
I have adjustable float valve, so I can raise the flood level too. Should I mess with it or not?
Thx

if your plants look good and the roots are doing good then I wouldnt mess with it.
on my system the roots fill the viod fast but the only thing I do is remove roots
around the drain hole.

so i have been flooding once a day and they seem to love it, i put in 2 6inch air stones last week in the rez and also added h2o2 29% at 3 ml per gallon and things look great. once i flip them to flower i might flood twice but im goin to keep an eye on how much they drink. here r a few pics 9 days ago

Has anyone put an airstone in each bucket?

not tryed that, but I think its not needed! if you have good air going in the res your ok! the amount of positive air suction
from the drain cycle pull air into the medium. plus a air stone or 2 in the res and your more than good. I run x4 air stone in
my res, I like over kill.

View attachment 1557490View attachment 1557488View attachment 1557486View attachment 1557484here some mods to get rid of the 1/2 hose and convert to 5/8 hose backed
with 3/4 pvc flood time is way faster and the drain cycle is alot better. to connect the 3/4 to the 5/8 a presure fitting was use, there made by rain drip. and the pvc
and peaces were got at lowes.
