Hi everyone,

I'm looking for best practices regarding the configuration of the Nutrient Transport mode using Vortech pumps.

I have two MP60 and two MP40, all placed on the back.
So one MP60 (top) and one MP40 (bottom) placed on the left side, and the same on the right side.
So each pair of MP60\MP40 running in Master\Child Sync mode (running in a six-hour cycle).

Now I wanted to run also the Nutrient Mode for some time during the day\night and I'm wondering first of all if it's better to run this once per day or even multiple times?

If it runs only once per day, I assume configuring this to not run just some minutes but rather maybe 2 hours makes more sense, right?

Also, would you run the four pumps (as in my setup) all together in Nutrient Mode or does it make more sense to let only one pair run in Nutrient Mode while the other is off and then switch to the other pair?

Just looking for some experience from other guys running a similar setup :-).
