I have a 60-80 GPH pump, it pumps 3 times a day for 2 minutes each time. Every dripper produces about 1 and a 1/4 cup of water during those 2 minutes. I will be be seeding into a 1 and 1/4" cube, then transplanting into a 4" cube...
Is the 1and1/4 cup "TooMuch/TooLittle/JustRight" for which stages of growth?

absolutly love your image
You can run it more then that if you want if its recycling system. You can run drippers 24/7 if you wanted to. Or 25 on 45 off or somthing like that.

You got your timmer set up like its ebb/flow but its drip you can run 24/7 its oxygenated water strate to the roots. If you wanna do spacing between waterings make it alot shorter like 35 minutes to 45 mintues at most depending on medium.

just say its a marijuana plant. this is not a tomato forum so maybe that's why your not getting a reply because alot of people here don't grow that. dont be a scared baby you wont get caught.
