I currently have some plants in 1 gallon containters that were on a top feed drip system. I''d like to change them to a ebb and flow setup because thats what I have in my flower room. My question being that probably 2/3 of the 1 gallon is higher than where the water will fill to on my ebb tray, will the grow media wick; will the water travel up the media to soak all of it? The media is the grodan mini cubes with a 4" block at the top of the 1 gallon container.
I just don't want the plan to suffer because only part of the root ball is getting wet.
Also, would it be bad to completely soak the media in an ebb setup for 15 minutes 4 times a day? Would it be too over saturated?
