not they will not ...u will just be letting air into roots (air) , not water

I am sooo confused now mate!! lol. My little brain is lost.

My water will be getting to the roots via the base of the pot? Already seems to be happening.

I have air domes in place. Connected to pipes that stick out of top of coco.

BUT, I didn't connect blue "air stones" to end. I have main air pipes going into centre of air dome.

Layer of perlite 2/3 up the airdromes.

Why is water not getting to my roots? Surely the only issue is if I should turn the air on or not as only a single large outlet in air dome?

Sorry mate I am really confused by it all.
 
the whole point of the air domes is to oxynate the water... but u can do a grow without .... then try with airdome in the next run

they are by no means essential :eyebrows:

OH!! IS IT????

That makes sense then!! I though air went to roots, but air is actually going into water? Correct?

So I DO NOT turn air on this time. Correct?

THANKS AGAIN mate! Ans sorry!!

OK thanks mate, I will look into this. Have to keep noise to a minimum as now have neighbours below me and wooden floors! I do have attic above though so may drill hole in cupboard ceiling and put noisy stuff in loft. Landlord lives in different continent! :crying:
 
@Slowmo any idea what size pump for rez mate? Will probably be no more than 30 litres full as I'm scared and here every day to check level anyway!

i run 100l an hour to each plant (airdomes)... my eheim pump does 2x 200l for a max of 4 plants ... that seems to be more than enough ...

i might start to bubble the rez with my spare 200l/h pump ... that will also help bubble off any clorides ... :thumbsup:
