Think I found the perfect 5 gallon buckets for when I try a DIY RDWC, only $8 at Walmart
Amazon was crazy fast.That was quick!
I’m planning to try one myself! Got the air stones gotta figure out a drain idea for water replacements but I’ll be using a 5 gallon bucketThink I found the perfect 5 gallon buckets for when I try a DIY RDWC, only $8 at Walmart

Any bulkhead fitting should work, just depends on what fitting style you need depending on how you want to drain.I’m planning to try one myself! Got the air stones gotta figure out a drain idea for water replacements but I’ll be using a 5 gallon bucket
Sump pump outside the tent I can go into, would probably just have the bucket drain with a plug into a shorter trey, I’d start with 1 just to see how I like it before I went to far into it, only thing I need is a bucket and top with a 4” or 6” net cup I’ll find 2 fittings and a piece of tubing to make the level indicator withAny bulkhead fitting should work, just depends on what fitting style you need depending on how you want to drain.
You could drain them individually or have them all drain to 1 container and then pump out from the container into something more portable, unless you have a sink or something near by to drain to.
Mine will be here tomorrow to get the reversed plant in a air stagnant tent lolNew tent up and going.
Sounds like a good planSump pump outside the tent I can go into, would probably just have the bucket drain with a plug into a shorter trey, I’d start with 1 just to see how I like it before I went to far into it, only thing I need is a bucket and top with a 4” or 6” net cup I’ll find 2 fittings and a piece of tubing to make the level indicator with
Then just find some bulkhead plug I can just pull out when it’s time to drain it for the change out
Drill 2 holes for the air stone airlines fill er up and let er rip
Wonder how many I’ll kill
Awesome. Now I can bloom in all three tents. Had to loose my little cabinet.Mine will be here tomorrow to get the reversed plant in a air stagnant tent lol
This cman x okie was topped and followed the exact timelines we are using for the challenge she’s 40 days from flip now
The timelines were based off her exactly
Except she was put in a 1/2 gallon pot instead of a gallon
Hmmmmm.....stackable too....so many possibilities.....niceThink I found the perfect 5 gallon buckets for when I try a DIY RDWC, only $8 at Walmart

Just my opinion for what it is worth, but I think it's way overpriced. I've never noticed a difference vs other quality myco products. If your plant is hanging on by a thread it fixes things, but so does recharge and teas etc... I don't see the valueI use great white, but have been looking around at different brands deciding if I wanna stay with it or not
Call me crazy....everyone does lol....I've had this idea for a long time for making a Vertical NFT-like system. It's a simple idea and a square bucket would be the right dimensions. So you know those aetator/recirculator things they use in aquariums? Attach one on either side of a square bucket, positioned so it would flow from the level of the net pot down the roots and recirculate. Trying to get a lid to fit always kinda stumps me. Maybe one of you crafty DIYers can figure it out. Or simply say what are you crazy and I can finally move on to a different brain worm.
Great white on amazon is 15 bucks for an oz whereas Mykos WP on amazon is 20 bucks for 12 oz.Just my opinion for what it is worth, but I think it's way overpriced.

I wanted to do this so bad when I was getting great white (I know it works form testimonials here) but the other brand was way more quantity for your buck! I failed on the open coms and asking hereGreat white on amazon is 15 bucks for an oz whereas Mykos WP on amazon is 20 bucks for 12 oz.
I'd go with the Mykos WP. It's just as good if not better than GW.
But it's also really easy to make your own -
Buy one bag of Mykos and just use it to reproduce more
Rome wasn’t built in a day!It wasn't easy to build out of plywood, but I'm sort of a hillbilly master craftsman like that
That video is pretty spot on as far as making your own. I did it just like that except instead of harvesting my own starter, I used like 2 tablespoons of Mykos. Other than that just do what he did, takes like 3 months or so but you'll have so much mycorrhizae you'll probably be dumping some in your garden or somethingI wanted to do this so bad when I was getting great white (I know it works form testimonials here) but the other brand was way more quantity for your buck! I failed on the open coms and asking herethis was the answer I would have wanted had I asked! lol! Do you have any pointers or a link for someone who wants to make their own? Or should I just go down the rabbit hole? : ) thanks Deadstill!
Oh shit man I didnt even realize video was available!That video is pretty spot on as far as making your own.

As far as how long it lasts mostly depends on how you store it. I keep mine in a closet completely dark and sealed and stored at pretty much room temperature ~70 degrees. Have had a bucket for over a year now still good to go.
I'm in, I'm kinda in already as I have 36 autoflower chocolopes in 1 gallon pots...there was also a solo cup challenge, I think the 1 gallon gives a bit more freedom, the solos were fun to watch but a lot of us don’t have time to water multiple times a day, figured make it easy
Gotta figure out how we want it though to level the playing field
All entries must be the same so we gotta figure out the rules.
1: must be in a 1 gallon pot
2: must be (either seed or clone will determine which by consensus)
3: Must be soil / or peat based medium (growers choice but no DWC)
4: (considering) all neuts must be organic, but would be hard to enforce, I think most of us are respectable upstanding folks who would want to compete legitimately, and there no real prize here other than bragging rights,
5: have multiple categories best looking plant / frostiest / heaviest yeild etc
Lemme know what else you guys think to keep the challenge fair!
Also NO RULES ARE FINAL this is simply a brainstorming topic to see who’s interested and we can finalize the rules with the full roster of contestants
Those look awesome checked up north here and they don't seem available I guess just in the good ole USA.Think I found the perfect 5 gallon buckets for when I try a DIY RDWC, only $8 at Walmart
