ok ive set it up and have run water thru it but the system seems to make water at a drop a time and the waste just floods out. zandor or anyone, plz help

[Zandor]

That's about right. The directions should say how many gallons per day your system makes. Mine does 100 gallons a day and will use about 300 to make the 100 gallons. Just use it to water your lawn or planters. A drop is a little slow you may have a clog in the line. Make sure you have the water in and out flowing correctly or you could make a backpressure problem.

RO system is a water purifier i guess??

anyone got a link or any info on this sounds interesting.

Thanks

Search eBay dude look for something that can put out 100 gallons a day or better 5 stage. Now one thing about RO water everyone should know. You should use CalMag plus with RO water to put back the good nutrients the RO process takes out. RO is drinking water and drinking water removes natural nutrients the plant needs.

oh bugger, this is never ending lol, ive been feeding my new sprouts that for 3 days now, ive just ordered some quest cal mag plus 60 tablets. hopefully ill get it by sat but if not shud i change to tap water straight away or just wait till i recieve it. also, wats the ratio to add to water per tablet. thanks again zandor

hey zandor, you still around? i have some questions youll be able to answer for me. when i first plant my seeds, shud i be using the ro water with cal mag, or wait until i fert before i use the cal mag. and how long roughly is it before you add your fert when growing in rockwool. thanks ever so much, i cant seem to find the answers at all.

oh 1 more thing, when u soak the cubes, which im soaking in 5ml nitrozyme and 5 ml formulex, do you allow the cube to totally dry out before using or do you just let it drain to a slight wettness. if you do let it dry i take it u water before placing the seed inside. thanks again zandor
