block the flow back...and top feed them with fresh water and fill the cube with about 1/2 to 1 inch of water and change it out every 3-4 hours...and buy two pumps even if the second is to small...good growing

dipping the roots in a DWC would buy you more then 3-4 hours (more like a full day), let you get some sleep tonight perhaps, haha

I agree with the dwc thing...but I don't know if all the roots are grown together yes...I don't know how many plants are in that system

the pump in the AG sucks. Don't buy another. You couldn't install it right now anyways, sounds like the roots are too thick. Add air stones and turn into DWC. I took the pump out altogether after the 1st grow, it's useless. Get a good airpump and you're good for a long time. The more air, the better.
