    floraflex bubblers uneven watering

    Uneven watering seems to be a common issue I see growers discussing. Our company offers a metered delivery system that delivers the exact amount that you set it to. Each station can have a different amount delivered (if wanted), and each station can have it's own nutrient reservoir to suit...

    DIY drip system DTW

    I understand how autopots work, but don't have any experience using them. When I grow drain to waste with coco, I check my runoff EC as a proxy for the EC at the root zone. If the correct amount of runoff isn't maintained, I have seen spikes in runoff EC. How are people who use autopots...

    DIY drip system DTW

    All right, you got me :) I should have said I personally haven't seen any commercial growers use them. I'm not here to bash anyone's equipment or method of growing. If it works for you and you get quality bud, great! I am partial to top feeding though :)

    DIY drip system DTW

    I would agree. Maybe they could work for certain situations, but in general, there are much better ways to irrigate your plants. Roots go where the water is. This picture is the void left from when a carrot was pulled out. The roots just wrapped around the carrot. It's much better to...

    GrowTek Drip Rings

    Hey, thanks for the feedback! If degradation of the wood stakes is a concern, we would be happy to include extras. Personally, in my coco grows, the stakes have held up fine. As for your comments @PJ Diaz , by no means am I saying these will work in every situation. Just like the Hydro Halos...

    Fertigation Manager Basic kit

    @bk78 I remember you saying that you might have some long runs from the pump module to your plants. I just tested the pumps with a 3 foot section of tubing on the output, and then with a 20 foot section on the output. With the 3 foot section, the pump moved 327 ml in a 10 second run. With the...

    Fertigation Manager Basic kit

    Yes, you will see algae start to form inside the lines. My next production run I plan on going with a colored tube. The algae is unsightly, but I haven't noticed it affecting anything negatively. Even with a colored tubing, my guess is that there is still algae buildup. You just cant see it...

    BK’s shit show

    The one that bk78 is using is a metered delivery system. You have to provide a nutrient solution reservoir(s), and it uses 4 individual self priming pumps to deliver the nutrient solution to your plants via the drip rings you see above. It delivers the solution based on an interval. So, for...

    floraflex bubblers uneven watering

    Glad to see you're checking the runoff ec....lots of people neglect it. The runoff ph isn't nearly as important. If the ph of the solution going in is where you want it, don't worry about the runoff ph. As far as the runoff ec, as long as it is below what is going in your good. I really cant...

    Fabric pots dry too quickly.

    If your growing soilless, you really don't want your media to dry out. Are you doing this experiment with soil or something else?
