I hope to share my experience with all here.
I built an outdoor ebb and flow system in 4" sewer drain pipe.

20 ft Long 24 4X3" Cups

Moved germinations yesterday to outdoor bed. Planted 25 in grow blocks. Lost 5 to a worm pest of some sort. Put 19 germs in the bed. The pebbles were 122 deg F. I think I have about 5 good plants left. The rest look fried.

I am into the nutrients and all that stuff... Trying to figure it out.

Peace and thanks for all advice here.
