Would you try continuous drip in soil with hyper oxygenated water?
Has anyone tried continuous drip with hyper oxygenated water in quality soil on recirculation? Would you ever try that? Would the oxygenated water compensate for the problem of overwatering as in DWC, but in soil? Why would you or would you not try this?

GHE Waterfarm - pump timing
Hi all! I am using Waterfarm from GHE and I have set it up so the pump goes on and off at same time with the lights. Is this timing OK or is it better to just run the pump 24/7? I have no experience in hydroponic yet.

Auto water/nutients
I'm new to the game and have a simple question. I have recently set up an auto water system with a 5 gal bucket. I use Fox Farms when I mix it do I add a full 5 gal amount of fertalizer to it when I do it or a reduced amount. I'm growing three plants that are now in flower.

Canna boost and autopots
HI! I have a question regarding Canna Boost and autopots. Do you use it in a reservoir? The ph is rising faster in res since I added it. The nutrient solution in res also got cloudy and trays became slimy. Since I use airdromes the ph also rised too much.
