Quick breakdown of my current setup:
VEG: 4x4 tent w/2x 4 bulb t5s 9-16 5gal pots
FLOWER: 5x5 tent w/750w Gavita DE 9-16 5gal pots
I plan to trigger it "by hand" at first to get a good sense of how much water they need and how long ill have to run the pump, then get a digital timer once i dial it in.
Just lookin for some incite on if this setup should work well.
Went with a 550 GPH pump because ive seen a bunch of people complain about drip rings not evenly spreading the water flow and i feel like people dont take into account the "overhead" drop in output of their pumps. The tote holding the water will be about level with the pots and should only have to go up about a foot to get to the tops of the drippers. I have a tray that will fit in my flower tent and i plan to raise it up a few inches at a slight slant so any overflow can drain to waste. Gonna have to figure out a low profile container to collect the run off to keep humidity down in the flower tent.
Right now i use promix so i shouldnt have to water more than once a day (sometimes every other in early flower/smaller plants) and i plan to try out some coco once i get this setup figured out.
So heres my plan:
Drippers:
Any help is appreciated. Ill be starting a grow journal running this setup once all the parts come in and i can test it.
