I have and it smelled real foul the next day. I rinsed it all out, never again.
Like stated above not a good idea from my experience.
I feed my teas from the top but no more than a half gal so it doesn't run into the reservoir.
I do most of my feeding when I amend the soil and rarely top dress, just a tea or two.
After 8 days of droughting I fed this afternoon and none of the 1/2g of tea ran out and it was pretty dry soil.
I also filled the wick res with a gal of plain water and I just checked and the res is bone dry.
About your aeration on the sides, that's the swicks advantage, sides and bottom get air.
modified sip with aeration from a few grows back
Thank you for the heads up.
Nice mod on that bucket. Did you notice any difference?
