    Bucket Hydro and air

    I'm not super familiar with a flood and drain system. But, I don't think you need air stones. I use air stones in RDWC where the roots are constantly submersed in nute water and would not otherwise receive oxygen. I think your roots will get aerated during the drain cycle.

    For a plant that size you only need an ec of 0.3 or so. I'm not familiar with your setup, but in DWC I add the nutes slowly...over a couple of days....built up to my target ec. watch the plant for changes after you feed it. This feeding schedule might help you out with where your ppms should...
