More complicated for chimps maybe, so I wouldn't recommend it to you.

Seriously dude, what is your grow experience? I see you giving advice on shit you obviously know nothing about

Lets see, you start off by telling somebody an auto top-off is "complicated" than make a claim that people keep their water level all the time and finally that Ebb& flow is about pushing old air out. Of course there's all your other posts in every thread you comment in.

Notice you don't have any grow pics though.

Like he wrote, it's a little more complicated than it sounds.

I made this one comment. I was agreeing with the poster above's comment that you need to provide something to keep the top-off from filling your res during flood.

If you're about to claim E&F doesn't push old air out of the root zone I think we have conclusive evidence regarding who knows what they are talking about and who does not.

I wrote that I flood to the same height throughout the grow in hydroton. Up until a couple posts ago I had never heard of anyone lowering their flood heights throughout the grow. I still can't see any purpose. Since I'm not a troll I asked that guy why he lowers his flood height. I would like to know, to see if it makes sense. I like new ideas. Maybe I am missing something here and would like to take the opportunity to possibly learn something new.

You should try it. Start with basic chemistry. Or keep writing posts about the hydrogen needed for anything to burn.

See, at least I have grow pics. And it's not really about how many watts you use, growing is growing. If it makes you respect me more in the morning I used to run just over 5k though.

Sorry, I'm not posting pics here. Just don't want to.

But you called me... what was it?

Most Ebb&flow designs have an overflow shit head. Dude you really need to stop giving advice on shit you know nothing about.

Oh right, a shit head. Are you going to explain why I'm a shit-head who knows nothing about E&F tables because you wrote "overflow"?

Yeah, I think it was the ozone.

Now you got to admit, thinking that is ozone damage disqualifies you from ever giving grow advice.

It does look like ozone damage taken to the extreme. You can definitely do that with ozone. If you noticed in your trolling research many other people in that thread thought the same thing.

Now back to YOUR claims which you refuse to explain...

That can't be done in 2 days with ozone, impossible, sad you don't know that. I did notice that some people with little experience and under 100 posts agreed with you though.

Dude I'm done with you. Every thread you give poor advice and refuse to back it up with examples of your grows. Over 200 posts and not a single grow pic.

So no explanations on your absurd comments?

Notice how I addressed all of yours and you can't explain your own comments?

Do you know that you are a troll?

I've been running 2 E&F systems for a few years now. Yes, you need about 40gal for
a 3x3, or 4x4 tray.

You other guys should quit fighting in this guys thread.

when i 1st put clones into the pots, the roots still sit kinda high.
whether i use hydroton or lava rocks.
i would raise the fill pipe up an extra inch or so.
this way the table floods to just about the rim.
to ensure the roots get a good drowning, for the full flood period.
once the clones get bigger roots and acclimated to their new digs, the roots grow lower into the pot.
no need to flood that high anymore.
so i change the flood pipe to my original piece, which is bout an inch lower.

i found that doing this keeps the ladies from drying out.
most importantly, i don't have to change my flood cycles.
otherwise i'd have to add another flood time or 2 and increase the flood time.

easy peezy lemon squeezy!

ive been running tables off all sorts for 25 years... my air isnt pushed in and out by the flow, its pushed in and out by an air pump i leave in the chamber i create when i put plastic over the entire top of the tray... i follow the roots down and ebb less as they grow.. no need to use that much water and your res last longer... as for the res and topping off... you could connect a few res's together but you will have to mix those identical.. it takes alot of room.. all sorts of bs.. better off with a bigger res to start with.. or, if the reason you arent using a bigger res is height for some reason... go soiless..
opinions are like a-holes... everyone has one, some are just bigger then others.
