Question Pump and Aerator Timing for Flowering Stage

This is my first grow using a Bubbleponics system (awesome product) and I know I have read somewhere that the pump and/or aerator should be set to turn on and off at a timed interval during the FLOWERING stage.

I cannot seem to locate what this interval should be in this forum anywhere.

Can anyone verify if this is the case and if so, what is the recommended interval for the timer/aerator cycles?

air should run 100% of the time in bubbleponic DWC systems as for a water pump they can be timed or just taken out for flowering.

Stealth Hydro Tips

The water pump should be used continuously when roots are still young.

When roots grow beyond the net pot and into the reservoir solution, the water pump should be placed on a timed cycle of approx. 3 minutes every hour.

The air pump and bubble disk should be used constantly.

From what I've read, don't put more than two plants in that thing.
Good luck on your grow.
