Can someone explain where exactly the waste runs to in run to waste systems? Or does it just collect in a tray which needs emptying etc
I have two 50L tubs under the grate that my plants sit on. Not because i have a lot of waste water (i barely have any). Its just a safeguard in case my pump timer malfunctions and tries to flood the entire 100L rez, which hasnt ever actually happened. I sleep well knowing its impossible for my room to ever flood tho.

I've seen plenty of people who've flooded a room before, even the best growers.

I dont bother recycling any accumulated waste water as i put chlorine in the drain tubs to stop algae growth. But you can vacuum or pump it out and dump or sans the chlorine, use it on your garden. I just dont bother because its such a small amount.

Risky business. Can cause deficiencies because the water evaporates and can spike the EC as im sure u know. Well done tho if you got away with it.
