Ebb & Flow growers?? Ok, so lets see your watering schedule.

Im starting my first Ebb & Flow grow and am just curious what your watering times look like. I plan to water 2 times a day for 15 minutes, let me know what your optimal water schedule looks like.

My setup:
400w HPS
GH Flora Series Nutes
Coco Grow as the Medium
2 WW, 2 BB and 2 NL#5 plants will be inside growing.

This will all rest in a grow chamber I made with a built in A/C unit to keep temps down, and I also have ventilation fans and a carbon scrubber hooked up to the grow cab.

Let me know because I have found many mixed opinions with Ebb & Flow watering schedules, and I would like to get the input of someone who uses it on a regular basis and has the watering down like a pro. Thanks for any help.

What up Cloud? So what watering schedule did you end up using?
