Hello, been growing in soil for around 7 years now and just wanted to try something different. I've been doing a LOT of reading and researching and now I think I'm just driving myself crazy :woohoo
Here is what I have (well some of it needed to be ordered and will be here in a few days).
4x4 Secret Jardin tent, 2x600w VIPAR LED lights, 3x3 Active Aqua flood table, Active Aqua 50 gallon res, active aqua flood and drain kit w/hose, 4 medium air cylinders, 2 bags of the larger size Growstones, dual output Active Aqua air pump and a 400 gph Active Aqua submersible pump.
My plan is to run 24 5" pots and do SOG. Basically put rooted clones in rockwool into the pots with the growstones and put them into flower after they reach around 4"-6" tall. I planned on using the square pots that active aqua makes but have concerns about the roots making their way into the table and catching too much light etc. Is filling the table around the pots with hydroton the preferred method to battle this (and algae)? Another idea I got from reading up on icmag was to make a lid from 1/4" plexi (or similar) and use round net pots to keep the roots sheltered (paint the plexi etc).
Flood times. What is a good starting point with tiny clones and growstones?
I've been trying like ballz to find a thread that was basically titled "Ebb and Flow table for beginners" so if anyone knows of such a thread and could link it that would be spectacular. Ive read through millions of threads on all the sites and I can't seem to find that type of instruction manual lol.
Thanks for listening....
