switching from rdwc to drip coco

[pdasterly]

switching from current culture to floraflex drip system, what should i add to rez to keep clean? in dwc i used hydroguard and liquid orca with good success, does this apply to a drip system with 55 gallon rez?

I assume you're just doing DTW in coco? IMO, and some might disagree with me, but I would run drip clean @ about .4ml per gallon. I would do multiple feeds a day once the roots are really establish and not even worry about run off.

Do research on multifeeds with coco and also search no run off DTW. I'm setting up my new room this way and have 2 friends that have been doing it for a couple runs. Explosive growth, simple drip system and very little runoff if any.

I run a 55gallon res in my coco drip to waste. I add 100ml of Hydroguard. But TBH, I've only started doing it recently and I haven't noticed much difference. I've added it only as a preventive measure to keep my water/nutrient mixture in the res clean while it's sitting. It takes me about 2 weeks to go through a full res.

From what I've read, if you've got everything dialed in right, you shouldn't need drip clean, hydroguard, etc.

faithful to hydroguard but recently switched to liquid orca, that stuff works wonders

the liquid orca even outperformed azos red liquid
