Drip system timing
Wassup talkers so yesterday I installed my first drip irrigation system with a 100L Flexi Tank as a reservoir, Atman AT-107 pump and another small pump to circulate the reservoir.
4 plants in coco\perlite on day 8 of flowering. 20L Airpots with a massive rootzone.
Hand-fed they would drink 4L a day easily so I have set the timer to 15 minutes when lights go on and 15 minutes 2 hours before dark.
The run-off is about 2 liters from all 4 plants each watering. which is slightly less than what the run-off was with hand feeding- though it was only once a day.
So I wonder if I'm on the right way or should I adjust the feeding schedule? Also was wondering if there's really any use for more frequent watering? My assumption is that Coco\Perlite in an Airpot behaves more like Hydrophonics than Soil..
Would love to hear your thoughts guys
