Erm maybe its building up over time is the dripper letting more in that plant or if there is no blockage to the drainage I cant see why it would not drain you must have a blockage on the return or waste pipe i don't see any other possibility. If it is clogging regularly then I would increase the diameter of the pipes people with rdwc systems can face the same problem if the pipes are too tight they get blocked super easy.

The problem isnt tubes but the hole in the pot and there where she block. When i put finger in the hole where are the roots,water goes down and its okey but the day after is clogged again. Its like argilla balls plus roots blocked it.

Hi fellow grower, I think it may be your organic nutrients. They can cause a build up, blocking pipes. Like Rookie_grows says, add another filter to your system or use larger pipe to transport fluids. Good luck and happy growing

If you are talking about the feeding tubes, try putting tights or socks over them so it adds as a filter
