Hi all Ive always used airstones in my resses but im pretty sick of them now. I was wondering what other growers did to keep nutes mixed/ aerated while sitting.
Ive looked into a couple of ways....
theres flooming which is just putting a upward facing pump in the res and letting it break the water level just enough to keep things mixed and aerated
(theres a thread on the advanced forums about this)
or
Venturi which is similiar except that air tubing is used with it to create tons of bubbles
either way looks better than stones to me but my only concern is water temps running a pump 24/7, might get pretty hot. I know water temp isnt as big a deal with coco as dwc but its still a concern.
Id love to hear what other people do and if anyone has used these meathods any probs youve ran into. thanks everyon1!
