If you're growing in coco using chemicals you need to have runoff all the time. I'm confused now.

I have a little one with a small hose for a 5 gal bucket, and a bigger one with a longer hose that's for my 18 gal Rubbermaid container that reaches from my bathroom to my grow areas. Makes it way easier. I got mine from my hydro shop for cheap. The little one was less than $10, then I had to buy the hose and crap. Super cheap still.

Always feed til runoff. Jack the plants up on these or something similar.
You can leave them on there and suck the run off out when they finish dripping. This way you are letting it drain properly.

In the photo there in veg so there's only one tray and jug, when flowering there's 3 trays with 3 jugs but the same principle, elevate the tray at the back and use a piece of capillary mating at the low end into the jug and it will empty to the lowest point, I go in to the run off already collected in the jug.
Capillary mat/matt? can lift nutrient up and over a good height 6/8 maybe 10" and deliver it to any vessel you choose.
