Ebb and flow home made

Just harvested yesterday. Had a nice 12 bucket set up. Decided this time around I’m going to do for buckets and fill up the 4x8 the best I can. Simply running 4 sour diesel’s in Menards buckets. I run my system off of duel timers. Here’s the leas than 24 hour turn around. And yes all new hoses everything is sterilized. There’s my girls mother in the last shot.

Not a big fan of these systems,seems your really only one step away from rdwc which is less complicated.What are the benefits of this system?Ive seen some monster grows but it does appear complicated with the extra pumps/timers.

Honestly it’s easy. It’s just a flood and drain. I feed mine twice a day for 15 min then drain. Yeah u have some pumps and such. Mine is home made. Most buy the controller with timers and floats. I said screw it. I don’t need a chiller that’s one benefit. Growth not as massive as say a rwdc but it’s my preferred method for my area.

Do you ever find that those fibers from the trellis get into your buds?

No not really I try not to lay the bud against it. Only the stem but it’s nautical fiber so really not a worry

Are you SCROGing your mother plant for some reason? Letting her go this round?
