Drip system air stones?

[Jay123]

Hi all,I start my grow in 4 inch rockwool and manually top feed for a couple of weeks than I put it in a 5 gallon pot with clay peoples. Than set up a reservoir with nutrients and a pump and air stones in it. Than I have a drip system setup with a timer feeding pots not recirculating. I turn air stones on for a hour before feeding which is about from 2 to 3 times a day. What do you guys think of the setup? And do the air stones help with oxygen. Been growing like this for about 3 years,just looking for some tips

Hi Jay I grow in Autopots. The system has arez. I use a small aquarium pump to circulate the nute solution in the rez as opposed to air stones. The pump helps stabilize the PH. The air stones were a problem in that regard. But that's just me. It sounds like you have your grow system and method dialed in.
