Fodder System Question

[PotterWatch]

I have our fodder system almost set up. I have the water tubing currently set up so that each tray has its own individual water tube (we also plan on adding another level when we need more fodder), but I was wondering if that will be putting too much water on the lower levels. Since the trays above will drop onto the trays below,should I not have water going to the bottom trays?

It depends on your drainage. If the trays don't drain well, you'll end up with mold. I also found that the bigger and thicker the sprouts got, the more they held water which causes mold. The center of May trays remained wet but the edges dried out. It's sort of a hot or miss proposition and you learn what works and what doesn't for your particular system as you go along.

Thanks! I guess we'll just have to start doing it and see how it goes.
