what the feeding cycle

[Stuck]

Could any one tell me what the feeding cycle would be for a hydroponic garden. What i mean is how many times does the pump feed the plants in a 24 hr cycle. How many times and for how long of a duration do they stay on thx

It depends on how much moisture your medium holds between watering. If you use rockwool then you wouldn't water as much as with a medium like grow rocks. I flood my gardens about three times an hour. It only takes 5 minutes to flood my gardens then 20 minutes later I flood again and so on. You don't need to water at night because without photosynthesis the plants can't utilize the nutrients in the water.
