hi , can you tell me the measures from bottom part of reservoir in the floor untill the top of the pots but in the 11 liters pots of the wilma 16 x 11 liters ? and for indoor grow plants with clay peebles or coco in the 2,5 months cycle with maximum height of 1.90 meters from floor to the rooff the 6.5 liters are enough or is better the 11 liters pots ? is not very tall but the space is not very tall ... thank's.
Hi mate…how long could the 900x900 4 pot Wilma system be left unchecked using clay balls in the veg stage…clearly things can go wrong but in an ideal situation?
hey mate, as long as all of your nutrients / temps are dialled in fully, you can leave them a few days no mither (although we recommend you keep an eye on them as things quickly can fluctuate).
How long would you allow the blue stakes to feed coco 70/30 perlite blend would I do 2x 8min feeds a day for example 8pm and 8am during veg or up that to 10-15mimute feeds please help with some info thanks
Hey mate, there isn't a hard and fast rule to it, go off what your plants are telling you mate - start off at one feed until the media is saturated and go off if your plants require more feed - a good measure is when the media is drying out, you know you need to feed again - work your way up to maybe 2 x 10 minute feeds during peak flower mate, but again, it may need more or less! There's a lot of factors which make us giving advice really hard, but we always recommend starting less and working your way up!
Hey, we'd recommend House & Garden Drip Clean. It's specifically created to remove the build up of minerals and salt from your dripper lines and piping! www.onestopgrowshop.co.uk/products/house-garden-drip-clean Thanks for the question mate!

hey man, you wouldn't use soil normally, you'd be using either clay pebbles or a 60/40 clay pebble mix - we recommend this one www.onestopgrowshop.co.uk/plant-magic-60-40-50-litre.html
@@OneStopGrowShopHydroponics hello dude.. i got my wilma but when i open the red for mixing nuts this still watering my system... is this normal? Thanks
About the mixing. So when alot of water is coming tru blue dripper, its mixing? Or is it when its only dripping water, a rest going back via the big hose?
When it's mixing mate turn the red know to straight forward so that the water is pumped around in there on a continuous loop do this for 10minutes every now and then to make sure all is mixed. I highly recommend H&G drip clean will help immensely keep the res clean and all that
When your feeding the red tap must be turned to the side......for mixing point the tap inline with the black pipe. Inline means your bypassing the small feeding pipes feeding and basically pulling water from one side of the resevoir ( the side on which your pump is placed) and sending straight through the black pipe with the red tap in the "inline" position to the opposite side of the reservoir to your pump. When the tsp goes across the black pipe its in feeding position and when it's inline with the black pipe no water should be coming from the drippers and should be going straight back to the reservoir. Apologies for long winded reply, hope its easy understood.
How often do you recommend feeding 60/40 clay pebbles and Coco in flower when using blue drippers? (I find the black arrow drippers are more prone to blocking
Hey Jordy, In heavy flower we would recommend 4 x 8min feeds a day building up to 4 x 10 min feeds. if you have a graslin timer or similar, I'd say do 3 x 15 min feeds and judge it from there. Remember this is dependent on your environment, if your VDP is correct you'll get on fine. If you need any more help, feel free to pop us a call or speak to us on live chat on our website.
hey dude, which wilma system do you have exactly? If you can find it on our website we'll be able to let you know! www.onestopgrowshop.co.uk/t/categories/grow-systems-slash-pots/wilma-systems Cheers dude!
Hello, nice video, I really like the look of this system. I am thinking of buying a 4 pot system for growing indoor tomatoes. Please could you advise if 11litre or 18litre pots would be best, also which growing medium would you recommend, clay or soil. Thank you in advance.
How can a root system develop to Any decent structure from 1 flood dripper especially when using clay pebbles ? Surely you’d get a better root mass from actually flooding a pot ??
@daveking777 I was wondering about this myself, but I would imagine after a few hours the moisture will have crept its way round the pot. That said you could maybe move the dripper from one side to the other every other day? I'm no expert and have just inherited 16 4 pot setups. So I'm a complete novice.
Hey mate, you'd use a chiller in the system to cool the solution as the water recirculates :) www.onestopgrowshop.co.uk/products/hailea-water-chiller-kits if you need any other help, just give us a shout :) Cheers!
@@OneStopGrowShopHydroponics Thank you! i've got an issue tho, the wilma system that i'm using 9x11L is having issues when trying to mix the nutrients, there is water coming out of the small tubes ( a lot less than when its on "normal" mode) but still, is it supposed to do this? thanks!
Wilma system is great, plants growing very fast and bigger grops, the one negative I personally experience, is a small lack in terpenes, compared to organic soil. Trying to fix this with Plagron Green Sensation en Plagron Sugar Royal, results not yet in. Ph and ec meter is a must though!! Never try hydro without these, incorrect Ph will result in problems in early flowering, resulting in yellowing plants never reaching their full potential. To mix the nutrients you should put the red tap open (in line with the black hose), close it to feed (crossed with the black main hose). Contrary to what they say in this video. Timmer of the drippers 1) Clay pebbles; VEG: 2/3 15m feeds, FLOWERING: 5/6 15m with blue drippers 2) All other media: 2/3 15m feeds, and 4/5 with black droppers Make sure to make the first and last feed fall together with the first and last hour of light. Happy growing!
@@arahant69 chances of overwatering depends on the medium. Clay pebbles + constant flow is ok, but overkill imo. I switched medium just recently, using RFX-1 atm. First results with same watering schedule as clay pebbles was a small disaster. Rfx tends to hold the water a lot more then clay pebbles. Now, during growing; 2x 15m, flowering; 5 x 15m. Happy growing mate, trial and error, but once you found the sweet spot... same with women ;)
@@arahant69 btw, no watering at night bro! Has no use. Watering at night during flowering can lead to mold. My last watering is one hour before light goes out.
I'm sorry but the 1m square gt nft pisses all over the Wilma for ease of use the main problem is it's £100 more if you can get over that than get the nft its worth it in the long run less hassle blocks compared to pebbles that don't spread the nutes evenly I'm using the Wilma now can't wait to get back to the gt grow tank
Not at all I've been using the wilma with canna coco nutrients and all additives and added house and garden drip clean 👌 my res is stable pretty much constantly with ph and EC I love this system

Dld he accidently say wrong? If you want to mix nutriens, isnt it better to have to hose open and when feeding have it closed :D ?
Awesome video! Just wondering with the drippers set up on a timer at how many hours do you set it for? Like every 4 hours or so?
veg state 3 x 15 minute feeds @ 8 hours in between . flower stage 4 or 5 x 15 mins . listen from 3:40
I love this system i modified it a little so I could use hydro halos on it. Works amazing.
@@Gg_system what about a schedule for clay pebbls/rockwool?
@@BossTweed69 if I remember correctly you need the blue flood drippers on for 15 minutes per 24 hours
