hydroton and plant buildup

[Rivka]

Yeah im pretty small time 50-75 plants at any given time, all in some version of sh pots or heading towards that. Hope to have most all in systems like you saw of mine with that large glass resivior. Ido my best to water every 4-5 days with weak fert. and do a very through clean water flush once a month

It was nice to meet you Ray, your talk was interesting

Could always go with a vapouriser too. I have an old Vicks Vapouriser I got at the drug store for less than $20. It holds about 2 gallons and has worked for years.

Cheers.
