Amo Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Mainly the link talks about Dissolved Oxygen (DO) This makes for very interesting reading, an cover’s a lot of what’s being talked about in here. Read it last night. Im just getting into hydro, and was for using the fluming technique (only last night discovered that’s what it’s called) as that had been described to me by known grower on here. Lot’s to learn against what I’ve learnt so far using compost. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punta Roja Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 @Amo Mate... if I can do it so can you... I feel like I'm now at the the helm of a space craft just left the asteroid belt... I reckon I could leave my system for a week without checking in... auto pilot. Hope I've not just jinxed my grow. Four weeks... my first hydro. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tis quite space race looking, mine probably won’t Gonna be a removable nft, test run just to see how it goes. Being able to leave it a few days is why I use compost. Hydro I know/think you needa be on top off ec/ph daily. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve binned me fish now, looking after plants is surprisingly far more satisfying. So is just sitting there starring at them, far more fun than watching fish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s a few things, it does increase surface area, it also reduces surface tension but it also brings water with less oxygen from the bottom of the tank to the top. Basically stirring the water. If the water at the top was saturated to its peak level then no more oxygen would dissolve into it and reach the bottom but fluming ensures all water has some time at the surface to collect oxygen. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That looks sweet Just out of interest are you planning on flowering all 20 or is there just that many to ensure some good ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
