What are some of the ways y'all remove run off? If you have pictures of your setup or your process it'd be much appreciated!

5 gallon bucket, 2 gal pots in coco. Near the end I would remove the plants then ppm the liquid which was a little higher, add ro water to bring it back to 700 then ph adjust. I'd use it again then waste it. Works great especially when you're pressed for time

I use wet hoover to suck the water from the saucer.

Just make sure to get it with big tank.

Works good.

Is there a reason you don't want your soil to wick it back up?

Sometimes in flower I do when I hit with boosters, becouse they drink alot.

There is salts in this water if you are growing in soil or coco.

You dont want your girls to drink all of the time from it.

Even whwn you use hempy buckets you need still to add alot of water to change the water down in the pot reservoir..

Hope this helps

I built a roof with rain gutters leading to a P-trap that drains outside to my rose bushes, both veg and flower room, still building and adding over here. My 2¢
