Done for the night!

As a hydro grower for years it pains me to admit that I've never given a flood style system a go. And the more I think about it the more I want to run some sort of flood and drain as a means to automate my grow. At first I thought pump with manifold on drippers nur it kept dripping after the pump shut off making everything too wet. Any tips on simple flood and drain style setups for someone with a bit of know how.

Bell siphon is the usual way.

It's probably just white noise now or a case of the..

I've had race cars, growing autos is the same. Ho Lee...

20lt more nutes, and a few more tie offs! lol

Parameters are good, I have 350mm more vertical and if pressed can get another 200mm

From history, I get nice cooling from the plants themself. When fully filled out and less leaf material it gets hot in there. I try to offset with more wetting down of the pots etc. Last few grows (same system but 600w hps) I rarely did res change after stretch due to the amount of uptake and evap due to sytem design.

This time, only 1 res change! Just top ups!

Not ideal to go through so much water but readings keep staying in range so re feeding is working! Happy to see the microbes on the bags!

So anyway! I'm just crapping on! Hopefully things start looking awesome in the way of bud porn soon!

At about the same plant age using this globe last year I had to pull the grow and move suddenly, lots of shit going on IRL

They had fully kissed the light and it was a disaster in a 2m high tent with this hood. So I've been nervous as to wether or not I could be successful!

Not there yet
