    I was wondering what peoples opinions were on how long they flood their tables. I have rooted clones 5 days in table flooding once every 2 hrs for 15 mins during 18 and flooding for 15mins mins only 2 times during the dark 6. My medium is hydroton and I clone in macro plugs, flood close to 4in in 5in net pots.

    Do any of you flood longer (meaning 15 mins more) ?

    TY Merry Christmas!

    I really don't think duration matters. It's the time between floods and type of media will determine that. Most feeding is done after the flood on nutrient film on the media surfaces.
     
  3. Makes sense, right now I have 3 cycles for 15 mins during light on and zero cycles when lights off for 6 hrs
