RDWC Multi-feeder tubes?

[waltwalt]

Does anyone run multiple feeds per bucket? I've got a ton of roots in the bucket and the one feed tube only splashes about half of them. Also, the tubes get clogged almost weekly, it's standard spaghetti tubing feeding tubes, what do you guys do to keep them clear?

Anyone run aeroponics/dwc? just install some sprayer nozzles on the end of the feed tubes?

yah no spray from just the tube, needs a sprayer on the line
if you want that root sprinkler action.

My big rig has two lines to each bucket, but it is not needed, I will not build that way again.

Why do you say that Haps? From the looks of mine, it could definitely benefit from a second source of water in the buckets. One whole side of the root system is dried up. This could be because I transplant large established root systems into these buckets, maybe this doesn't happen if the plants establish their roots in the system?
