I've noticed a lot of growers are using coco with a drain to waste setup, and I’m curious about how everyone is handling drainage. Especially since coco needs to be fertigated multiple times a day during flower until a good amount of runoff. I tried the Floraflex drainage system but personally didn’t have the best experience with it, so now I’m exploring some DIY options.
One idea I’ve considered is modifying saucers by adding feet and installing bulkheads with hoses running to a condensate pump. Another option I’m thinking about is placing a tray in my tent with fabric pots elevated on risers, and using an automatic sump pump to remove excess runoff from the tray on the floor. I’d really appreciate hearing what’s worked for others. Photos would be even better if you're willing to share.
