Under the plants is a reservoir full of water along with a pump. The pump trickles water unto the grow sponges. You can set the pump to trickle the water 24/7 but I have mine set to 10 mins on 60 mins off because I have two air stones I added to save on my pump usage. There’s always a steady movement of water which the plants seem to like thus far. The drip down system itself is to increase oxygen in the water and to steadily keep the water moving around the reservoir while dripping water closer to the base of the plant instead of letting just the roots that have grown out feed the plant.
