Q's about homemade DRiP SYSTEM/Plant Care
Hey guys, i got some questions on growing with a homemade drip system. Here's some info on the setup.
I constructed a drip system that will hold 2 net pots containing hydroton. the res contains 1gallon of water that is being pumped by a very small fountain pump i bought from home depot. i don't remember how many Gallons per hour this thing pumps but its the smallest one they had. anyways, the water pumps up a foot long tube which has 2 spouts with 1/4" black rubber tubes supplying water, one through a dripper, the other through a 90 degree elbow that connects to the tube. As of now I am in the SEEDLING CYCLE in Rockwool so the RW hasn't even touched the hydroton yet. well, that's my setup, if u guys need other factors to answer my questions please let me know, i need as much info to grow these babies right the FIRST time
1. After how many sets of fans should i transfer the Rockwool cube to the hydroton-filled net pot? the net pot is about 5" in diameter. or until how many inches should i transfer?
2. Feeding schedule; how often do i feed and how long should i leave the dripers on? the light cycle i have setup is a 18/6 light cycle starting at 8am.
3. Can i leave the dripper flowing right near the root or at the edge of the pot?
4. For these 2 Plants, do i need an Air pump/Air Stone with only 1 Gal of water?
i think thats about it lol sorry if i'm precise i actually just had a blunt with my girl for our 4 year anni haha:smokin:. ANYWAYS, thanks for your time guys! looking forward to some helpful insight!
