Hehee, a little yes...
Honestly mate, its the dissolved oxygen in the water that does the trick, fast moving water collects more oxygen ;).... Nft is cool for fast water over the roots as they are static roots and suffer little if any mechanical damage from the speed of the water.
Dissolved oxygen will stay in the water for a period of time before it fizzes out, that's why I choose to seriously agitate the water in my res and keep a smooth but still quite fast flow through the tubes, my roots dont even dance in the flow...
Fearing sounding like a know it all.. :oops:
Peace
