Talk:Ebb and flow hydroponics/Archive 1

suggestion for an additional meaning
This "word/phrase" is now sometimes used in casual conversation to mean "everything is good", or, "all will equal itself out". Can the owner include an additional, short paragraph that speaks to this meaning? thanks Trey50 (talk) 21:10, 15 May 2015 (UTC)

article entirely too limited
The phrase in question here has a variety of meanings, while the article only covers one specialized definition. I am going to add an introductory sentence to that effect, but much more needs to be done. Wickedjacob (talk) 08:38, 15 November 2011 (UTC)

I agree. This article should be moved to a new one titled per the specialized issue addressed. A new article should be written for "ebb and flow" in much more general terms.Buckyboot (talk) 22:59, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

The "Drawbacks to E&F systems" section is vague and possibly incorrect simply due to ambiguity. There is absolutely no reference to any scientific or empirical data (I checked the only reference article), or even a suggestion to what the author is even referring to by the term nutrient which could be a number of compounds, fertilizers, etc.. Additionally, it seems that it would be very presumptions that the above ambiguous "nutrients" would be applicable to every plant that is grown in an ebb and flow section.

 * This article should really be moved to something like Ebb and Flow hydroponics system and the original article expanded to cover the general use of the phrase — GhostInTheMachine talk to me 15:25, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
