I'm considering a new design and am wondering if I can get some input:
I'd like to keep my plants in 6"-7" tall tubs, which will be filled 1"-2" with water/nutes. The plants would be in coco croutons inside smaller smart pots.
So far this is just bottom-feeding, nothing new. What I want to add to the mix is an air line or two going into the container, maybe with airstones as well? I have heard airstones might not be necessary... These will run every ?? so often?
Anyway, once the water reaches a certain low point, the tub will be replenished with fresh nutes/water mix.
That's about it, really.
I posted something similar in the Coco forum a while back and didn't get much response, so I figured I'd ask here - surely someone has attempted something similar - maybe not with the exact medium/setup, but with a similar aerated flood table design?
I think in theory it should work really well?
