So like half of my drippers, all on the 1 side have stopped working over the past 2 weeks or so. Started changing them out but wasn't fixing the issue :shrug:So I got a new bigger pump

Still no luck:doh: So I took it apart and replumbed it to get everything inside the tray like I should have originally. Still not working :nono:

New big ass pump coming tomorrow. Out of ideas after that.
5 weeks/4 weeks. Snapped the whole top half off the strawberry kush bending it over so been a pretty rough week for everybody

I wasn't impressed with that pump I bought thinking it was bigger and better but found my 100W 880gph have better pressure or at least ALL the drippers worked properly:thumbsup::d5:

The new floraflex manifold I built was working good testing with this pump and will be starting to use it very shortly but IF it fails I a have few of the above pump the swap out too... For the cost as long as I am spending < 50$ per pump then I get a new one at the start of every grow along with drippers :condom:

New pump. Kicks out way more then my garden hose does and way overboard for this job. But still won't kick on some of the drippers. Only thing left that I can think it would be would be the drippers themselves :shrug: This pump will be going back and gotta find some better drippers somewhere

Only other thing I have had is make sure the dripper is not air locked.. I've had to pop couple of my open and bleed air out to get working before basically just pop the dripper out with pump running and you'll hear the air or feel the water:condom: :shrug::d5::goodluck:

I've been sucking on them with my mouth to try to get them to siphon :rofl: But they'll only run for anywhere from 30 secs to a day until they stop dripping again. Pulled a couple of the drippers off and the tubes shoot a couple feet so it's gotta be the drippers at this point. Got some netafim ones on the way. I'll just keep hand watering once a day until then :shrug:

I feel your frustration. What a maddening task, eh?

Pain in the ass. But looking back now I did change all the drippers to a fresh bag of these when I started this run. Just didn't remember that until today :doh: Stoner :clapper: New drippers were obviously the last thing I thought the problem could be. And not totally certain that's gonna fix it at this point
