Drips are meant to be run constantly in most cases. If it's a soilless medium, then definitely run 24 hours a day. Also if it recirculates, make sure you test your reservoir often.

How important is cannazym in my coco grow?Should I be using something like cannazym in my res. for my coco grow? I notice allot of people don't mention it, but it seems like they would have to clean the tubing pretty regularly without it. I've never grown without it so I really wouldn't know the other side of the coin.Week 8

Week 2, leaves yellow-ish mottling, pH too high?That's my guess for now. I was going to use Blumat Tropf hooked up to tap but house water seems too basic. Only way I can think of remedying is to hook Blumat Tropf up to reservoir and make sure the water in it is the appropriate pH. Will that be stable?6y ago

Organic slow-release fertiliser tabletsBought tabs with slow-release for 10-12 weeks -> usage 30gr/1 ounce per plant. Should I mix it with pre-fertilized soil of 3 weeks? (15L/4gallon pot)
Their Customer Support told me the plants would be fine. I have to mix it in the beginning. Possibility for overfeeding????Setup. Substrates
