Hello cannabliss folk,

...Riddle me this...see the leaves curling and folding.

Is it because i use hydroton, with airlines running through
the water lines / hoses, to the water buckets, which hold the bucket for the hydroton and plants, which have the ROOTS from the plants, coming out of the hydroton buckets into the water buckets ??? ? ? ?? ? ? ? ? ? So yeah, the roots are always in water / nutrients.
The water buckets always have an inch or two of water in them ? ? ? ? ? ?
IS THIS THE PROPER SET UP

How do you other HYDROTON users, deal with this issue ?http://boards.cannabis.com/images/smilies/stoned.gif

Ok, let me put it this way,

If one uses Hydroton in the liner buckets, how much water should be in
the outer or lower buckets, because mine NEVER empty all the way !

....Or is this question too difficult for this forum ! ?

First off sarcasm isnt gonna get you no where. Not everyone reads the boards everyday so give us a dam break.

The system you are using has basically one very important step, the controller box and all buckets MUST be at same height. If box is on floor then buckets are too. If box is on a pallet the buckets are too. If they are at different heights then 2 things will happen, either you have a wet floor or buckets dont fill all the way.
2 ways to fix your problem, raise the buckets about an inch or 2 higher than the box or take some 1 1/2" or larger PVC tubing and cut about a 2" piece, place in bottom of bucket and then put liner on top of PVC. Thank you Daddynobucks for the PVC solution. Btw the answer was most likely in the setup directions that came with the unit.

Kindness pays off a hell of alot better than being an arse.

Thanks Tinytoon... Oh, just a major panic here, with a shot of
frustration sir, that's all.

Jeezzas cree-sta, YOU and most others here, have way more experience
then me ( my first G ) so panic and turn abit sour ! Just be glad i never
got my pilot's license !

Yeah, my system is all on level flooring, well as level as a floor can be in houz.
... as stated in the directions....even though they were for a different system !
Yeah, they sent the wrong directions with my set up ! That's kindda funny uh !
Well, anyway, um, So everything is kindda on the level and the buckets of course don't overflow but they don't drain all the way either. At one point
I did raise the water / hydroton buckets together, UP about 2" and it
made the situation WORSE SER ! but it luckily, didn't flood the floor. Didn't have to panic there, it just didn't go over the
top of the water bucket, phew !

Oh, I see now, Phuck'n Da ! Shiztes ! Raising the buckets was the right idea,
except i didn't go to the second step, RAISE the
Liner Buckets / Hydroton Buckets also !

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOUZ SO SO SO MUCH
Youz may have just saved all my efforts/time/money for the last 2months+
See, i toll youz i love this place !

It's all good !
Now, i can fix this problem, then work on my first very own garage,
then work on my customer's car, then go to my lady friends houz, help her
with her moving situation. ( another victim of the bank swindlers )

" Toonman " thanks.

Just raise the inner liners not the outside buckets
