I used to water my plants on a schedule like you, but then i desided to water constantly, because I think it is better to keep the water moving all the time - in nature streams are always cleaner than still water. Also in my opinion this spreads more evenly the liquid through the system and I always know that the PH and concentration of nutes in my reservoir is the same as at the roots of the plants. My plants are growing very well. Just make sure to aerate well.
tonski Reviewed by tonski on . A little Help with the Drip I'm using hydroton in the pots and I put the plant in the rock wool in the middle of the hydroton. Im using GH nutes I want to know if I can leave the drip going all the time when the light is gone? Right now it is watering 4 times when the light is on and 2 times when off. Spread out evenly. each water is 20 min long. The plants are doing fine, growing good. Do most growers leave the drip on when the light is on? I am growing Brainstorm (Northernlights X Haze) and Ak-47 X C99 Rating: 5
