ok folks I am considering setting up a recirculating system for my coco grow. i have run a recirculating system in the past.
my issue is I do not have floor drains in my basement. So an automated drain to waste system would be very difficult to manage.
4x4 white botanical tray, 40 gallon rez underneath - bought before Botanicare sold out like pieces of crap to Hawthorne Group.
plants will be in .8 gallon Air Pots
I'll make drip rings using 1/8" black tubing.
here's some things to consider:
I do have an aquarium chiller to keep the rez cool.
Rez will be changed out weekly
Using pH perfect AN nutes might help the pH to be stable but i'm not counting on it.
other than pathogenic issues, what else should i consider??? As long is i let the plants veg long enough to fill the air pot with roots, there shouldn't be a problem with root rot.
talk me out of it......... or not.....
