Well shit man, where do I begin? Lol
Couple of them:
I use an 2" abs coupler for drain. It would be hard for me to describe how tall the half up in the tube ends up. Anyways, Drilled tight, but with a little epoxy underneath. Keep in mind, this is 6" ROUND. Problems with Drains on square tubes don't exist. Than 2" abs pipe for riser and to reservoir,
1/2" pipe up on the inside. The tweeks would be how big the holes were and where aimed at.
Gph per certain length of tube. Ended up with around 400 gph per 8.5' - 9.' length of tube/rail.

There's allot more :-D
None of them THAT special. But I sure did dial in them tubes. Toot toot! Lol

I used GH's flora series for years. Zero additives. KISS.
I'm not really into using/buying the volume needed when using flora-series anymore. I still go back to it once in a while. With the advent of 1-parts, I would prob def be rocking maxi-series, with zero additives, if and when I go back to the tubes. Which, btw, worked excellent when I did use maxi in the tubes.

Right now im doing something like that, only running floraduo a&b with silica as the only additive In a rdwc. Seems to be working but not competing with the cyco line.

Actually, I fibbed a little.
What happened was, there was this site called overgrow.com that came online, and I got convinced that running with RO water is where it's at, even though my water wasn't half bad, and I was just fine up until then . What a dumb-ass I was. So I bought into it. Started having deficiencies. But then I read about cal-mag. Cal-mag was the only additive I would throw in there.

I tried the duo. It's alright. You end up using just as much of the duo as the floraseries. I was usually at around 15ml/gal. To much bottles needed. Maxi grow/bloom = 5ml/gal = Pretty much same results,

I hear a lot of people using the maxi in hydro with just some silica.

I've messed around with Si additives here and there since they came out, in different setups. I sware to god they fuck up the flavor a bit. I don't want to get into it with anyone about it, but I recomend only using it through the first half of flower. Or maybe just through the stretch.

I totally agree. I drop it around the 6th weeks.

No, but when I finally build up these new tubes, I'll snap some.

Great!!!

I assume you've seen some of my tube "madness"------after going to a 9' gulley in a 10' tube instead of holes and no medium----I'll never go back.

A~~~
