over water?

i have a concern i am using a 18 gal bucket with a drip system with 6 pots. my question is can i over water with a drip? how often should i have the water dripping? i was thinking all the time because the water lev in the bucket is vary low so the roots will wont reach the water for a while so can i leave my drip on all the time or what?

no you can't over water with drip.
Ya got bubbles going? Leave the drip going till the roots get 2 to 3 inches in the water.
then take out the pump and let the bubbles take over.

YOu dont need a drip system in Bubbleponics the splashing of the bubbles will get your roots drinking water in about 8-10 days if you bring the water level 1/2 - 1'' under the net pot. If you have a pump for a drip system use it but as soon as you get roots in the water take it out it will only raise your reservoir temps.
