I’ve always rocked night time temps at 69ishThanks for the reminder about the room temp, what should temps be with light off? My rails are 5 inches, and the pipes with sprayers inside are at a fixed height. The sprayers are about 2 inches from each net pot, and the roots are already sitting on the bottom of the rails as soon as the plants are put into the system. So the roots of each plant are sprayed near the net pots, then the nute solution flows over the root mat sitting on the rail bottoms. They are hybrid aero/nft systems, made popular from Stinkbud's Harvest a pound Every 3 Weeks thread in the hydro section. Since my grow is a scrog as opposed to a sog, the plants need the veg time to branch out and fill the trellises. Plus, each phase is on a 3 week cycle (Moms grow for 3 weeks, cuttings sit in the cloner for 3 weeks, then move to the veg unit for 3 weeks, then into one of the 3 flowering systems for 9 weeks. Rinse and Repeat). I use a 400 gph pump in each flowering system, great flow. 1 minute on and 8 minutes off.

Another cool thing is my tubes didn’t have sprayers. Instead i would drill holes just big enough for a metal coat hanger to clear when necessary. So those streams would be aimed to piss right where the water meets the tube when the water is at it’s lowest(riser pulled)
