Thanks Brotha Bee Happy Weednsday to you too

I too had the same problem your going thru, mostly in theory as I was worried about it weeks before I had even germinated, on top of that Im using a scrog which makes removing the bucket next to impossible.
I have two solutions that I can use for my situation.
1) I'm not growing organic so I use h202 in the rest to keep a clean system, so far I have been using the same soup for 13 days with no sign of saltbuild up, algae etc.
2) this may be something I need to do just for my own peace of mind.
When the babies are fully through the scrog the netpots will have to stay put leaving Me with one option in my opinion and that is as follows.
Drain the soup from bucket using pump or whatever technique you prefer, tilt the bucket until it Is low enough to bring out from under your root ball then get your spare bucket and place in its place, you can then use a pump to fill it back up with soup.
Unless you have lots of airline the air stone will have to be picked up and placed in new bucket somewhere during that process, I have a Mrs who can help me so it makes it slightly easier.
I know how long that process sounds but for me its the only was I will be able to clean out my bucket once it has grown through the scrog.
Hope I helped in anyway and didn't just go off on a tandem
you know what you could do but it would use twice the amount of liquid is set up a different res
connect the 2 buckets with a line on the bottom so when you drain your res bucket etc.. the bucket your growing in will drain at the same lvl itll take more water and nutes tho
what you could also do when I was thinking about a bubbler scrog is make a scrog that will attach to the top of your bucket
so you can lift the whole thing out of the bucket and do what you need to
just a thought
