heli2009 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Hello all, just wondering if anyone has ran 2 fast flow drippers per pot on a Wilma before and if it’s worth doing? ive also read a fair few recommendations on drilling extra holes in the base so the roots can enter the res, has anyone done this and seen an improvement? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joba Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 hi, not sure about those roots going into the wilmas is a good idea especially in the summer (don't want to go above 22-24C) pythium .... I have seen people buying those matts so roots won't go into reservoir regarding 2 drippers-why not but i would do it after 4 week in flower 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heli2009 Posted March 28, 2020 Author Share Posted March 28, 2020 @joba thanks for the reply pal. I’ve heard of people drilling holes and making it dwc style with an air stone. Think I’ll just keep it how it is. As for the two drippers I’ve read a lot of people saying the coverage is poor with one so they are making ring drippers instead. I’m thinking of just sticking two in, twice the coverage then. Thanks for your input. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joba Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 @heli2009 you should have air stone in your wilma anyway,to mix the nutes and oxygen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hesketh Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I'd personally have a Wilma with extra pump running to create water movement / circulation and I'd use fabric or air pots to prevent roots trying to grow in the res. Letting the roots grow in the res is basically dwc / bubbler.... excellent results but a lot less forgiving. All IMO after reading a shit ton on every system out there and trying a few too.

heli2009 Posted March 28, 2020 Author Share Posted March 28, 2020 @Hesketh yeah I’ve got the rhizo fabric pots for it. I’ve read about people putting an extra pump in for movement which I kind of wish I’d got for it but I’ve invested in an air pump now so maybe in the future!
