A flood and drain is the best way to grow a SoG IMO. No drip lines to plug up. It's so simple and effective. I grew that way for a long time, made millions doing it with flood and drain. Had houses that I would only check once a week it was so easy. If you have large capacity reservoir you can run the nutrients the whole cycle. If I didn't move to where it's legal to grow and now have to abide by a plant count, I would still be running F&D SoG.
How did you cut clones, it could’ve been a heating issue before, but I use clone king, and even with repeated floods I would lose some and would have to top water to avoid losses

I stick them in rapid rooters, it's super rare that one doesn't root, like 1 in 500 or so.
When I needed 200 every 20 days I used a 2x4 flood and drain tray with a dome. Set the 4 rapid rooter trays in there (the insert that holds them), set it to flood with just water every 24 hours and set the depth to just halfway up the rooters. I only visited that house once a week so it was automatic.

Your freaking awesome bro, I’m going to try that didn’t want to go back to domes but that 2x4 idea is gold. I’m going to try it in a couple weeks. I have some unused rock wool around here and I’ll place a rooter order.
You used leca balls for your table? 1 gallon pots

Yeah LECA balls.
I never had any luck with rockwool.
Those rapid rooters are gold. I used some rooting gel, stick em in the rooters and let em go.
Ok I have a bag and a tote full of them I’ll try my hand at it again. I found Rockwool a little more finicky then rapid rooters. Defiantly had a higher success rate with rooting out clones with them, that was a great idea to do them at scale. If my test route goes well I’ll be looking for a bulk supplier of lecaballs
