2400w Homemade DWC system
long time lurker, I finally bit the bullet and decided to make a grow log.
I built a new system with home-depot buckets, using 6 inch net pots with rock wool cubes in them with a top feed drip system until the root venture down into the water. I used my old water farm control bucket as the level for the rest of the buckets. There are 2 pumps inside the control bucket one for the drip and one is inline to move the water threw the system twice and hour for a couple mins. Ive got 4 600w lights over 20 plants. I just switched from GH to Cutting edge and so far so good! Seems like A LOT less salt build up with the CE. Over all im happy with the system so far no need for a water chiller and the ph is stable in all the buckets. Im always up for advice!!
For some reason it wont let me upload pics
Here are some pics right when they went in and at 1 week of flower the root pics were taken 5 days apart
