I'm building a new DIY RDWC build. Should it be:

(a) just like the picture in the attachment...
(b) kind of like the attachment, but 2 bulkheads on each bucket
(c) more like a "Current Culture" kind of setup with an undercurrent...
(d) try this...

I seen the system you have. IMO its extremely well thought out and surpasses what you can buy off the market for the most part.

IMO run the chiller inline with the system. But both will work

I've been revising yet again...
Here is my latest design for my 6'x6'x7' flower room:
• Moved 2" return & 1" waterfalls closer to the outer wall for more room to maneuver around plants.
• I removed the 400GPH water pump.
• Added a sample pot for testing pH, EC & water temperature.
• Added valves for the manifold system with drain.

Please give me input...
Thanks :)
