Damn son, nice green and lush :good:! This defoliation thing is becoming contagious.
Hey man i dunno if this would help on your other system but i believe you were still havin issues with the water not returning fast enough, basically the water was pumping too quick maybe. If you need to slow the pump down even more you can pull the cover off the water pump and there is a flow control on most of them as far as i know and you can really slow things down.

Ive raised them a 1/2 in but maybe ill go like 3.
Bro they might need to be lifted about a half a foot or more, even if you cant leave them raised that high atleast you can see if that does the trick and make adjustments accordingly. Hope you get it greenwithenvy.

Ball valves controlling flow into individual buckets will work when all else fails. You can just reduce the flow until everything is moving the way you want it to.

Ok new plan no need for anything else but ball valves on each bucket. That will solve the problem with the flow. I found some for 2.99 plus I get 15% off with my Med card. Thanks alot Friend.

Super nice resolution on those 'random bud shots'.

All roads lead to Dankness.

(Fuck Rome. That shit's been dead forever.)

Did those ball valves do the trick?

I was waiting for someone to ask if the valves worked. Well sort of. I bought all new valves and installed them 2 nights ago and started to test the system. Everything started out fine until I started adjusting them. The pressure in the lines after that was to much to handle and leaks started everywhere. I got so pissed that I took all the valves back out and all the 3/4 drains and tub fittings and today Im getting the 1 inch drains. I will have plenty of cash for that because the valves were 4 bucks a piece and lots of elbows and tees. Maybe tonight or tomorrow ill be in business.
