    no directions, their support isn't really for customers its designed for retailers and in this particular issue either they have been a bit ambiguous or I am simply unable to understand. Although these systems seem to be popular I cant find a video on them. Thank you, I think I will change my...

    That seems to make sense. OK, so add feed lines from the top of each plant with watering rings maybe? Then set the drain pump to trigger on the current float switch all the time?

    the pump in the res comes on and floods the brain bucket for 15 min 3 times a day. after the timer reached 15 min it system goes to default where the drain pump switches on until the float switch stays down.

    No, I think you have it, but based on what you said, should I just set it to water more often now, so that the roots always stay wet?

    The water temp is around 19 C so I'm pretty sure that is good. I didn't realize that a bit of standing water after feeding is good and dry roots (but not too dry is good. I will get some pics together and start a thread as recommended.

    Thank you so much for taking your time to help me. I'm a newbie here and just posted a status to try things without intention to cry for help. I know that's what a lot of people do. Anyway, the reservoir is not in the grow room.
