Really? Nothing? I guess what I'm looking for is an impute vs runoff guide. Like if I feed .5 ec every other day to 10% runoff will my runoff stay at .5ec or after a week will it climb to 1.2? How do I maintain a desired level of nutes in the media without needing to flush?

I run 1/2" pvc from my res to a big rectangle manifold on my table. where the big rectangle manifold meets the pipe coming from the res i install a ball valve. i use NO drippers on the end of my lines. i drill holes into my manifold and just pressure fit the dripper lines to the manifold (no grommets) i do NOT glue my pvc together from the res or the manifold just pressure fit. I use a 360 gal/hr pump to run two 4 x 8 manifolds with 12 plants each on the manifold. I use an inline filter right by the res and flush it every week or two to keep flow rates consistent. adjust ball valve as needed or adjust the timer as needed to get the flow rate you need for the stage of growth to get a little run off. Adjust the number of waterings per day to match the stage of growth. I like coco and i water every 2 hours and not each watering gets run off but by the end of the day there has been runoff a few times. the design i use for my manifold is the 'pico manifold' on IC.

Ok. That sounds like a nice set up. Does your ec going in match your ec coming out in runoff or does the runoff start to climb after a few days.

The idea of DTW is you are resetting the NPK and ph with every watering. Your runoff should stay pretty close to your res in EC and PH and if it's not up the frequency of watering and it will correct it'self. I don't even check my runoff anymore tbh I just water every two hours once the plants are big and everything works fine.

Thank you. Good info
