Cycle time-r ?
SanderanderSstarted grow question 3 years ago
I have a Aquafarm ( GHE ,clay pebbles hydroponics.) should I run the pump constantly or
do it with regular intervals say, 5 min on 15 min off. Do I run it at night? Any body any suggestions?
I do have a cycle timer ( mojo).

I prefer to run my pumps 24 hours a day as long as you have good drainage. You shouldn't have an issue with clay pebbles. By constantly recirculating your nutrients it keeps your solution fresh and oxygenated. It's the same concept as an aquarium setup.

I'm not a hydro guy, but if your water is aerated it could run 24/7 like other setups. but every 10 min for 2min should be good as long as its wetting everything.
the clay balls don't hold a lot of moisture.
Guessing when they get bigger they will want more.
Hopefully a hydro head chimes in and can give more solid advice.
Good Luck!

I would put it on a timer. Just need to get wet once in awhile. Roots need air as much as cool water.
