    Default Medusa drip and drain

    Hi all im looking at getting the medusa and i cant find the rhizo in the size i want in the uk only 28mm or xl

    So iv seen you can recalculate the run off back to the res. Is this a bad idea?
    I like the idea in saving nutes but i can assume this can cause problems? Cheers

    When you say you can’t find the rhizo what do you mean?

    I think the medusa and the rhizo are 2 separate system that do the same job. Correct me someone if I’m wrong but I’m sure GroWell stock the rhizo system and one stop grow shop do the Medusa.
    You can have them as a drip and drain or just a run to waste.

    Deffo dont want the wilma mate They look to take up to much head room.

    I want the RTW but was wondering if recirculating it would corse problems in coco or would i have to use pebbles and if so would that work.

    Im gonna be starting the RTW on this grow. I should have it time flower comes. But i do plan on trying to recirculate it in the next grow if its possible. If not id rather stick with the RTW.

    for me in coco i prefer run to waste, yes you my spend tiny unseen amount extra on nutes but its my preferred way to grow. i have seen people use recirculate in coco with great results aswel but i aint tried it so cant comment.

    RTW for the win, its simple an effective an you wont get build up salts
