If you look at posts of NFT systems that have set them up for drip it makes it easier to understand. A few things that are problems with drip systems, the first one made me change to flood and drain, the rest just give me more reasons to change it to flood and drain. How do you get the over-run back to the res? If they are sitting on tables that have a single drain back to the res, one more hole and a flood fitting, no more plumbing is necessary, same pump, same timer etc. Bigger res. The drip system is a pain in the back for indoor growing. BY the time you put 35 plants on table and want to move on from the center to the outside once you will understand. Not to mention removing the dripppers and soaking them every week or two. VV
