I found that making the feeder hoses the same length helps equalize output to the stakes.

whats up people, i got a similar setup less the circulation pump. is this necessary? is that why my nutes turn brown after a few days??

also, i have a problem with siphoning, if the water level is above the drippers it continues to drip. is there a way to stop this without changing the reservoir or raising the plants?
i was thinking some sort of check valve but that won't work.

-thanks

Does anyone know of pumps similar to these that will run without needing to be plugged in? I was looking to set up something similar to this outdoors.

they do sell battery-powered pumps, but I'm not sure where best to find them.
