Indoor Growing Scrog

My experiment. 6" Grodan cubes only, with custom made fertigation circulars. Every time I've harvested I've dissected the 6" cubes with a boning knife, to find significant areas of the 6" cubes dry, and without roots. This time will try distributing the fertigation. The bespoke rings were made with pruning scissors for the outlets, after lots of other attempts. They will be inverted from their positions in this photo, and lifted above the surface so I can see if/how they are distributing ...

Do you plan on scrogging them still?
 
Everyday when I check the tent. Crowded canopy and maintenance to do. Undecided on letting the roots go or trimming them at the edge.

I have tried this with holes in the tube, they still clogged, I used the small red push in spray things, they still clogged, the best was drilling the hole with a 3mm drill bit, however they still clogged eventually, I believe it was because I was using bio natural feed, the same thing happened with my balcony hydro setup ... everything seems clog at some point (in my case) except open pipes.

Good point Corum. I should have mentioned that I've switched from GH FloraNova nutrients to Vivosun 3 part liquid, and also using Jack's 321 dry nutrients. Both of these are basically clear when dissolved in the RO water. I made the switch because I got tired of dealing with the messiness of the FloraNova nutes. Also, I tried drilling holes in the tubing first, but still had to use a tip of the trimming scissors to get the remnants of the tubing chuff out of the holes. In the end, piercing and twisting a lot with the scissors did the trick. I also used a piece of wire long enough to go all the way through the length of the tubing, and thick enough to fill it, to push the rest of the chuff out.
