Should the container in which the plants reside allow for standing water at the end of a flood cycle (i.e. C.A.P Ebb and Grow)?
No. Standing water is an opportunity for anaerobic bacteria to multiply in the root zone of the plant. Encourage all growers to retrofit their systems to drain completely. Be certain to preface this recommendation with the statement “regardless of media, this modification is beneficial”. We do not, under any circumstances, want to infer that our product is somehow broken or needs modification to work properly.
