...errr dripper, rather.

Anyway, I've been using Fox Farm's 3 part w/ CalMag and LK. I am still very early in the veg cycle and already have a clogged dripper!

I'm just wondering if this is something I should frequently expect -- everything I've read points towards organic nutes being notorious cloggers...:wtf:

I know you shouldn't change nutes mid-grow but I am barely into the third week of veg and reeeaalllllyyy want to try GH 3 part...is that so terrible?

Thanks CC

You should check out "Drip Clean". Just add a few drops every res change and it should keep your drippers dripping. Good luck.

You should also consider a low-pressure drip system. Because the orifices are larger, they have a much lower tendency to clog. You can easily configure them to supply the same volume of nutrient solution as a high-pressure, but with fewer problems.
