Cycle time-r ?
SanderanderSstarted grow question 2 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.

Encouraging heightI just raised my 900w led to 39". Feeding every day about .3 liter. It looks like she will have 8 main colas after the 4-way top but I'm concerned about height. Should I wait for 4 nodes on the new colas and then switch to flower maybe? Thanks for the great advice as always!

My tent is 32"x32"x63". I've only ever done one plant at a time. This time I am attempting to share the tent with a hydroponic grow in a 5-gallon bucket. I normally grow soil in a 5-gallon smart pot. Should I use a 3-gallon instead? Last grow the 1 hydro filled the tent.Week 2

Hydroponics and tent height issuesI'm looking into hydroponics, and have been looking at the GHE waterfarm. But worried that with a pot being 37cm and my tent being 120cm, I'll run out of space. At least having to turn down my light to prevent bleaching or heat damage. Any advice on this?Week 1

Isolating grow tent humidityI recently got a humidifier as my tents RH was 25% with no correction. When I first put it in it didnt do much because of my exhaust fan. Untill the room it vented into was the RH I wanted my tent to be it didnt stabalize. I dont want the whole room at 60% RH though. Advice?Setup. Other

Low humidity issueTents 20'' × 30''. Using a vivosun 6'' inline fan to exhaust with passive intake to create negative pressure. I have a good humidifier but even on full the rh doesnt go above 40%. Not unless the room the tent vents into becomes super humid as well.
