How much irrigation is required for Ebb & Flow systems?
The minimum flood level for most media is about 1 inch. The capillary action of the media will draw water to the top of the media. The irrigation cycles could be for as long as 30 minutes of pump on time. The off time between cycles could be from one to six hours. The most common cycle we use is 30 minutes on and 90 minutes off, which repeats from daylight to dark.
