  1. When cleaning out your resevoir and the roots start hangin out the net pot how u suppose to clean the net pot and hydrotons from nutes and other shit without damaging the roots cause thats risky as hell im only 3 weeks in and i had hard time cleaning my resevoir, i accidently snapped small baby root from the bottom will that mess it up ??? Whats you guys techniques ????

     
  2. I don't clean my hydroton or netpots mid grow unless there is some obvious issue.

    Same goes for my reservoir.

    I use a pond pump and some tubing to empty it out and refill it with a garden hose.

  5. How dirty do people's water actually get? My water stays pretty clean unless I've just fed them. I do clean my res once during veg and once during flowering.
