I figured you had it figured out.
do the totes have a bottom drain in case you want to flush it or replace the water entirely?

I have a 3" access hole to drop the tri meters in and the hose i use for the transfer pump when draing each week. I didnt want any holes in the tote. The transfer pump will drain it in about 2 minutes. And then refill with new food for the week. The reservoir will feed it water and microbes during the week, while it eats whatā€™s there. Repeat weekly.

Couple of things to noteā€¦

  1. Love that 1st Gen taco in the driveway
  2. Be sure to prevent light from getting into the feed lines. You donā€™t want to grow algae.

Very well done!!!

Thank you sir :sunglasses::v::heart:

something I learned in my last experiment concerning air bubblesā€¦too little can easily promote root rotā€¦I see you only have the one line running to each toteā€¦ I am currently modifying my setup to utilize 4 air stones inside the tote, was 2 stones, and I have purchased higher pressure pumps to push the air. This is something you may want to consider in your next upgrade

I use the same stonesā€¦ive got 2,4" tall stones in each bucket. I will run seperate lines if needed after testing.

I purchased the small stones because someone said they put out more bubbles than any of the other types and sizesā€¦I always used the 4x2 stonesā€¦well they do because of the pumps I was using were not powerful enough to drive the 4x2 stonesā€¦so I started this grow with those smaller stones and my new pump but the other tent is getting 4x2 stones in themā€¦I felt so stupid not understanding why smaller stones did better than bigger stones on low output pumpsā€¦
