Heres a beast of a plant about 4 weeks in using your RDWC system. Probably be my first 2 lb plant.
I added 2 sites to make it an 8 site and I dont know...seems like the water level in the tote with the pump gets low quickly. I tried raising the totes with plants in them to get a higher water level in the pump tote but now i think my problem is so much water is in the lines feeding the totes and theres so much resistance pulling back to the main tote that its being pumped faster than it can run back.
I also dont want to overfill the main tote in case the pump burns out or a power outage and all the water equalizes and spills out over the top of the main tote.
I think the solution would be adding another route back to the main tote like i have on my 12 gal rdwc. One bulkhead per side. This 27gal tote
System only has 3
