Increasing the size of the reservoir is always good. For spider mites, I have good luck with Azamax, mixed as recommended, sprayed in three day rotations, at least 4 treatments. I add a few drops of dish detergent as well.
Nice advice. The only concern is my height. Do you have a pic of this rubber trash can and what sort of basket do you have with it? Trying to picture it but have nothing to go off of. Thanks.In case it helps, I've had good success with using a 10 gallon rubber trash can as a dwc bucket, it kind of the combines the best of both of your setups without the drawbacks. The 10 gallon is half as much maintenance as the 5 while still keeping the temps down by only using air stones without an external reservoir and recirculation. Also, if you lose power or an air pump fails the plant is in twice as much oxygenated water compared to the 5 gallon bucket no matter how big the external reservoir is.
Nice looking plant
Not the best pic but it was already in my profile. I just cut a hole in the lid of the trash can the same size as the net part of the net pot lid and its only a few inches taller than the 5 gallon buckets. Also gets two airstones compared to the one airstone in the 5's. My ceiling is only 7ft too fwiw.
Hi, I’m happy to share, General HydroponicsWhat nutrients are you using if you don't mind me asking :)?
