that is not dwc. dwc is where roots are constantly immerged in nute solution. it is a great setup though. basically it is aero. yes you want to get the pump on a timer. in the style you have the roots get the o2 from the pump cutting off. i use a recycle time and run my pumps 80sec on and 8mins off. plus it cuts res heat damatically.

I have a rdwc and stinkbud system. I use a cycle timer that runs all my pumps including my cloner at 1 minute on and 5 minutes off.

Would this work...it only has one minute intervals so I would have to go with 2 on 8 off...What would you suggest? Thanks for you help.

You can only set 8 schedules per day on that. I got one of these and have been happy with it
