good idea to hand flush a bit of fresh water thru the pots occasionally to prevent the salt build up?

thats where peops have fucked up u dont hand water or anything while in setup even folier feeding if u feed from top while in system u need to take pots out trays if hand fed

leave em.on 24/7, you need to understand the weight of the dry pots opens the valves under the pot and allows water in til its had its fill and closed off.. Don't let it go dry or they'll starve n dry. Ph your rez aye. Airstones are noisy in the rank. I wouldn't bother. Be careful what nutes you use and watch for the the roots clogging the valves. Other than that they're pretty easy its just gravity fed hydro in essence.

nice 1 mate i always have airstones in rez thats standard im feeling confident just ordered extra pots perlite an a bluelab pen.
the shit begins soon as i chop up the sluts and rooms free and i know it says dont turn system off and dont let res run empty but 250 l i cant see that running emptie my m8 reckons up to 2 1/2 - 3 l a day his was drinking at one stage

but they dont put coco in front of soil mate they say we recomend a mix of soil or coco and 40 - 50 percent perlite and ive had sum 1 say soil is better so im on it soil first run and second if they run as supposed too and it goes well il do half soil half coco its sick how u can connect as many pots u want or dislike and its just gravity fed i can run multiple strains still just by having sum small tanks but also have a look at the valves for trays they do also sit in tray it fills same way as single pot but in a tray to feed many pots

multiple strains is a no no. Not impossible.but they have to like the same feed level. Unless you've one rez per plant which isn't practical. They only recommend soil as it dries slower than coco. Airstones are a bit redundant tbh as the oxygen in the feed will dissipate afore the valve weight changes and lets feed through. I wouldn't bother.

me two I got two tanks and the seperates instead of joined valves as i thought they'd get cramped. that manylines is going to be a chew to keep happy. and you'll need a water butt to feed em not two of their tanks ha

honest lad the air domes make very little difference.

it always seemed that the water in my butt started smelling stagnant years ago so i always had 2 golf balls in my tank and i aint using there shitty tanks mate my bucket is bigger that i used to mix my shit up in but yea i think it gets slimy when water sitting still its a hard one to explain but my butt only smelled like it when i didnt pump lmao how does that sound lads lol but im gonna still mix my shit up in bucket ph and tip it in the tanks
decided thou im definately turning to coco its a must the more i read of these setups the more im liking what i brought
and dom did u have the airdomes in the bottoms as it seems the domes must be an upgrade on the systems hardly anyone uses them and the shop i got setup didnt know of them either until i went in today and asked them

McLaren is a tool, has no idea where players should be on the park. Only the toon would go for a guy who fuckin ruined Derby and knocked us back first time round only to take it when he had nowt better.

nufc is run by blokes who have no clue about football.

good luck for the interview man. What you going for?
