I am still trying to figure out how you have so much runoff
makes no sense
with only a 500gph pump and that many plants your shit should be dripping out

that is why I said to close the ball valve all the way and barely crack it open to the point where the dripper baskets are literally dripping
then time it.....should probably take between 2-5 min to get any runoff

I just don't understand what the deals is with your setup and why it is just running so much out the bottom of the pots

you know I could turn it down real far and up the timer to 2 mins... maybe!

the entire league is horrible

if you look at the stats for the Dodgers....it is your typical team of years past...as a matter of fact I believe they had a better overall batting average...hr...rbi...and era last year if I am not mistaken

but when 90% of the league is in the 40 win column ......I don't know.......I have a feeling that Football is gonna be the same way.....1 or 2 good teams and every one else is gonna be larf

That is because nba has paved the road for athletes to team up and over power the coaches and management...
We will do it our way or we will go somewhere else.... keeps teams hostage...
And I do believe the dodgers were better last year but so was a lot more of the league...

do you pack your coco down?
Click to expand...
no...no packing
I just don't understand....I have been using that type of setup for a really long time.....and no matter the dripper or tube or whatever....it always takes close to a minute for runoff in the 5x5 squares
once in flower I water 3x a day .....
but even then I space it out enough that the coco is never saturated.......the only thing I can think of is if you are only giving 1x a day that maybe when they are fed....it is so dry that most runs out without soaking the coco

that is really the only thing I can think of


yesterday....i filled my res......so my plants get fed @8pm
@9pm I gave another 1 min watering....and it took about 45sec for runoff to seep out and that was an hour after first feed....and I know it was fed because the tray was damp underneath the pot

I run a 500gph pump for only 6 plants with the same manifold........and my shit barely flows...I was thinking of upping to a 1300gph dc pump

I am really thinking that maybe the coco is just to dry and the feed just flows around the sides......

I also have expanded clay as my mulch which helps disperse the feed and keep the coco moist as well...if that does anything I don't really know

that is what I meant....the dodgers haven't changed at all....same team....but the rest of the league fell off a cliff this year
Houston is a little surprise .....what I am surprised at are teams like NY and Boston....which are just barely making it up the hill this year

Boston I figured would win the world series, against the Giants..
So I was way the hell off...
I however, said that my cubs would stagger a little,,,
I also picked them to win the world series in 2018 tho..

But it has been a very depressing season lol
as for football, I guess I got to watch it this year..
Last year I said I wouldnt watch till San Fran dealt with their public embarrassment,
And Chicago got rid of Cutler..

From what I hear both situations have been resolved..
:)
Even tho Chicage prob wont win 4 games this year or anytime soon..

I'm thinking you need a timer that is fully programmable down to seconds. Have it come on for 20 seconds then off for a minute then on for 20 etc. until you get runoff then off for 5 hours then start again. I'm not sure if they even make such a timer but it would be cool. You would probably need a plc to accomplish that, but then you could hook everything to it and be fully automated.

Well that is what is happening in my opinion.. It just leaks right down the plastic dripper stake to the bottom and right out the pot.. ..

Adding the 3rd watering has helped...
I prob should get some of them green things you got. Can i use them with rw?

so I would move the stakes closer in to the stem of the plant
my watering schedule is 8pm midnight 4am
if it gets hot like mid 80's I up to six waterings a night.......but that is during my 2 week heatwave...other than that......

You guys play any fantasy football?

I wonder how long I can veg in rw before putting in the UC?
I wonder how deep the net pots are?
I saw where someone veg in rw 4x4 cubes and when they got down to the bottom of the cube he stuck it on top of another 4x4 cube....
I wonder if you could transplant 2 cubes into the UC?
Do you get what im asking?

I've been in a league for the last 5 years. It's fun and it helps you keep up with the game. Some guys in my league know like every player from every team and everything about them. I still beat them sometimes. I've won way more money than I've put in.

a 4x4 cube is pretty big........you can veg in it for a while..........I had 2 plants in 4x4 cubes for like 2 months......

judging the cubes was hard though.... because it needs a wet/dry cycle........you have to really be on top of it....from my experience
