Very nice! What size net cups are you using with the smaller holes?
One of your videos showed up on my home page. I really like what you’re doing and the way you’re doing it. Please keep sharing. Thank you.
Your plants look very healthy! I have a similar setup and don’t have too much of an issue with algae in the water/rail system, but I do get algae growth at the base of the plants on top of the plugs. I use the Rapid Rooter starter plugs and had a big issue with algae, especially with stalky plants like kale. My growth isn’t as dense as yours so more light tends to reach the base my greens with the exception of the leafy greens when they start filling out.
It looks like you use a similar starter plug… what do you do (if anything) to mitigate the growth of algae on your plugs?
It’s been a while, you are back. Nice👌🏽
I want you to make a video about how mutch money you spend to make it and spend on thad
Caleb, in the event you get algae. Do you have any advice on how to treat small amounts of algae growth with your system ? I set up your system, and while I was running testing for about a week, I left the holes uncovered because I was focused on eliminating a few small leaks.
Thanks for the tips! What is the footprint size of your system?
