    Fertilizers costs in Hydro

    The main reason is to increase gpw. Last year I changed from hps to cmh and the gpw increase 30% at least, additionally it cut my light bill but as the soil pot is an heterogeneous media I was thinking to eliminate this bias and go hydro.

    Drip emitters vs open flow

    Hey @nurrgle you have read my mind I was asking myself this. So assuming 2 weeks veg plus 8 week flowering based in your numbers each plant will get 343 lt of solution but this is using what size of pot and what substrate? Coco/perlite?

    Bottom watering in coco

    Hey @myke I agree with you on the bottom feed employing coco subs but what about using netpots fill with hydroton or coco/perlite like in this draft. Maybe toss a coco pad on the bottom of the table with 6" rockwool cubes above it will be more water efficient? How much water does it will...
