They are a bit tricky to get dialed in so to speak. Don't use a medium with perlite, either straight coco or soil.Thanks for the info sir!! I might look into getting a blumat style system as well. Looks like they'd help simplify keeping mothers.
I never had a problem with them clogging, just runaways when I was using a coco/perlite mix.Just use plain water through them or it'll turn into a giant mess from clogging since they're gravity based.
same here..it's some sort of mica catalyst or something..my boys say if ya scoop it out, it will feel warm to the touch. I learned the best way to do things..is to have it stirred up as you feed..most guys feed via a rez with pump..keeping it stirred with a cheap mixing pump. The stuff will stay floating in suspension when stirred.Sup guys! I recently got 1lb of RO/Soft formula and brought up my r/o water to .3EC with tap as per instruction. I then added 1g to a 1 gallon jug just see how things would mix up. It seemed to mostly mix up quickly but I could still see very small particles floating around hours later but not alot. It's hard to tell unless you look very close.
I also tried it with straight R/O and got the same results.
Anything to worry about?
Probably because when I used blu-mats years ago, I ran h&g which always slimed up any irrigation lines.They are a bit tricky to get dialed in so to speak. Don't use a medium with perlite, either straight coco or soil.

Ya i mean if nobody is seeing any nutritional problems from it then I could care less. Good to hear it seems to be working fine regardless of what I thought could be bad. Thanks for chiming in @Natural
Do you feed at 5grams per gallon all the way through or water in between?
Running at 5g per gallon in promix I can really green up the plants fast but at what point do you start to slow down growth? Like if my leaves were really dark green but no tip burn or clawing would you continue to feed at that strength?
