    Good Morning! You will want to put nutrients into your reservoir, but run your nutrient solution slightly more diluted, as the plants will be fed every time you flood your tray. Once every two weeks you can top off your water – just straight water or water with an enzyme product in it. With hydroton, you will want to flood your table every 2 hours or more for 15 minutes. Hope this helps!

    Hey there. I’m using this system but with small gravel (differs between 3mm and 6mm stone). How often would you advise I water this setup?

    Hi Gordon, we would recommend watering every 4 hours for 15 minutes. Cheers!
