I am about to start a top drip, single plant setup with LST / SCROG. I was visiting my local hydro shop, very easy to talk to.
I was going in expecting to get a bit of info and parts for DWC, but was recommended to do a top drip system. And would also be easier to drain and refill the system compared to DWC.
Now, I seen the little kit he had to sell, just attach an aquarium pump, and the water flows up. Now, he was telling me that I wouldn't need to have the water pump on a timer and could be run continuously as long I have proper drainage.
Now my questions are the following:
Can I do continuous drip with this?
What medium should I use? Hydroton or Coco?
I am personally leaning more towards Coco, as I have a tiny grow space (19.5" sq 5' high), as I want to maximize yield.
Input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
