Thanks for the heads up on that.
I really don't need to choke it down. Only did that because I filled the res to full and was slowing the flow to empty a little bit by hand.
What I plan on doing is getting another female garden hose fitting. Screw that on to the male fitting that has the hose on currently.
Make a 90° bend pointing it straight back to the res.
This way I can remove it and put the hose on to empty the reservoir.
I also picked up a 10' PVC rain gutter.
These are shaped different than what they were a few years back. Flimsy.
I picked up a few of the support bracket hanger thingies. With those in place it seems more rigid.
I just need to figure out how I'm going to attach it.
Here is what I'm talking about with the new style gutters they have at home depot.

They had the same style at both here where I live.
They no longer carry the regular half round gutter or any fittings for them.
They're called K style. That's all they have out here.

Look great! Why are you using hydroton instead of foam netpot collars? I like the foams because of the gnat problems in this region, the bugs like any wet surface so I try not to give them any. How much vertical clearance do you have? Anything higher than 12" in veg and mine will hit the lights. Some strains like Blue Dream just stretch up to the light even if they start flowering at 4". :D
Honestly I didn't think the neoprene would work. Didn't look into using them either.
From my experience the stocks of the plant get really wide in a NFT system. Then again, this is my first Aero/NFT gro
