I'm running a recirculating 6 x 5 gallon bucket & 5 gallon reservoir DWC/drip system. It drips until it gets to the point of sitting in the solution.
My question is this,
How low should I let the roots drop before I switch off the drip?
On a related topic how much space, if any, should there be between the bottom of the net pot and where the roots hit the water?
Is it really necessary to have bubbles in each pot? I would have thought that the dissolved oxygen, if enough for all plants in system, would travel throughout all the buckets naturally? They're all connected by return tubing at the bottom so it just seems likely is all.
I have bubbles in all the buckets but I just didn't get why.
