Hydroponics set up?
Hey tinytoon we are coming over to your side with DWC and the drip just to get them roots started down. In the beginning we ran the drip 24/7 and did good untill root problems from just staying too wet. Now we start the drip 15 minutes every 2 hours but only untill we see roots coming out of the netpots.Then cut back to every 4 hours then 6 hours then DWC. This all happens in the first 2 weeks of clones after they have rooted and are put in there finale bucket or container.
We started with 6 plants in a 10 gallon tub and one small pump with a 3/4 inch line running in the middle with 1/4 lines tapped into it to each netpot. No drip emmiters as they clog. All yard irragation parts from Slowes except the pond pump.
Now after seeing your buckets we are switching over and have everything on a main rez with a controller. A pump will be put in the main rez and 6 of 1/4 lines coming out to each bucket. A small tie to attach the line to the netpot. Not fun to come in and the floor is all wet because one came loose. This is temp just to get roots started so we only need a minute or two just to wet them and not flood too much more than can drain back to the main rez. Once roots are going good then the lines are removed.
