Yea im at max dose watering everyday. only other thing i can think is using hydrogen peroxide and letting the cubes dry out. The room smells terrible at night.

don't some people use hydroton in the bottom of the tray to keep out light?

i would think the uc roots would kill that though.

i'm' talking about the clay balls. i've seen grows that use them to help keep light off the roots in your type of grow. the whole tray is covered by them.
