my thrash can grow was enough to get me and mama both very interested in itYeah benefit of soil... less work. unless your running ATO units and dosers with an AF system on a res
I started mine on the 15th so our kids are the same age lol will have to compare since we both rdwc well I'm just dwc/aeroponics for a cpl more weeks yet until they sex and then they can go to the veg tent as only have 4 spots and 10 seedsThat's from the beans breaking soil... not poping into water. They went into water to soak on the 18th. 13 days from when the beans first hit the water
Definitely bro... Strains will likely be the difference.I started mine on the 15th so our kids are the same age lol will have to compare since we both rdwc well I'm just dwc/aeroponics for a cpl more weeks yet until they sex and then they can go to the veg tent as only have 4 spots and 10 seeds
DWC is cheap and easy... Just gets a bit of a pita if your growing bigger plants cause I know mine with just over 4 weeks veg were drinking over a gal a day each.my thrash can grow was enough to get me and mama both very interested in it
As always well among others too ..But this jelly pie Im running this round should be some stanky dank danktastic lol along with the next crops I have got some fire for the black fri sale and half off can't complain about and they are in the same state so can't beat it
from seed those would be about a month in
These are F1 regs citrol sledgehammer. GK genetics.The solo cup to 1 gallon transplants i showed the other day were 16 days from sprout. Pretty close to Aqua’s at 8 from roots. I consider sprout when the cots are unfolded and up. Thats under 10 2ft. Flourescent T-5HO bulbs in a 3x3 tent.
Also the plants are F-1 fems. Very fast and vigorous. We should give a range cause different types of clones and plants grown.
You just need to plan. Ahead with it as with anything either have a top off res for it ...And water level tubes are a must have I believe as they do more than just read the water level as u can do water changes hook up a pump to it..U can also use it to add nutes or pH the system and use a turkey baster to mix it the air stones will help too...You will fit about 2.5gal in a 5gal bucket but it will depend on how deep the netpot is as well on how much water it can hold...If you scrog your plants size isn't a issue ESP if you veg and flower in the same spot and can scrog in veg won't be a issue you could even use 3in net pots....DWC is cheap and easy...

I scrog... But that would be a pita in DWC without a crafty scrog net... I run RDWC. So after my scrog net is in... I don't usually touch the buckets until harvest. All my testing and adjusting is done in the epi (res)You just need to plan.

The issue I have is it's only a 4x4. I also found last time with my timer mishap. I had root in the pipes and by harvest I had about 1.5 -2 gallon of water and the rest was roots. It was rediculous the amount of roots I had. I should have taken pics.You just need to plan.

I've always done my dwc in 5-gallon buckets and it does get crazy trying to keep them all topped up, its definitely a big con to dwc over rdwc but there are pros too. I have one going now in a 10-gallon rubermaid to see if it helps cut the workload down a little.DWC is cheap and easy...

Yeah it's a really great way to get started and requires much less equipment. Honestly I would say it's the place to start if you wanna do hydro. Seen plenty of people just decide hydro is not for them. A python is a good option to ease the workload. I used them for years in all my aquariums until I built a system. At one point I was well over 30 tanks if you count the fry tanks and did weekly 25%-50% water changes depending on stocking level at the time.I've always done my dwc in 5-gallon buckets and it does get crazy trying to keep them all topped up, its definitely a big con to dwc over rdwc but there are pros too.

When I've got max buckets going I have a 55 gallon trash can that I place near my plants and fill it up using a hose from the utility sink and mix my nutrients in there. Then I use an anker powerhouse (think giant cell phone battery with 110v outlet and an on/off switch) with a water pump to move the mix from the trash can to each bucket. Still has to be done way too often though.A python is a good option to ease the workload. I used them for years in all my aquariums until I built a system.
