Judging by your user name you must be from that place where the "Northern Blues" came from. I used to work in East Hertfordshire near Bishop's Stortford.
You can do dwc without a chiller.. Use +life or any other bacteria to ward off pythuim...
Make sure you got 3x as much air as possible too....
Buy quality air diffusors...
I dont know.. Prob 80ish...How warm can the water be when using +life? I still need to try this but have not had time to get to the local shop.
Thanks,

Same philosophy.. +life...Hey DGB, et al. Could I try the diy container hydro system with sprayers fitted to keep the roots wet? Is the temperature on those systems as critical?
This is the type I mean.......
Happy growing !!
And that water will heat up quicker due to a pump and small amount of water..Same philosophy.. +life...
I dont know.. Prob 80ish...
But with just one dwc bucket, you will be fine...
Is that because the large volume of water stabilises the temperature EventHorizan? This may be a goer. I've got a min max probe in one gallon of water in grow, and temps are looking steady. With a large container/tupe? It'll be even more stable.
Cheers and happy growing !!
Dude my room hits 82 degrees and the water temps are just fine, i'm running a re-circulating pump and even then they're fine. No root rot whatsoever. You can add "silica blast" by "Botinicare" and it will help build a defense mechanism to inclement climates. I've used it since I've switched to hydroponics and it has done me well. Just ease off some in the veg period because it will keep your plants stout. If you're running a single bubble bucket keep it at 2.5ml per gallon.Hey guys, I'm an organic soil grower, but fancy a go at hydroculture (DWC). I've been researching, and I don't think it's an option for me. My grow room is around 72-86*f and that's too hot for the water isn't it?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Peace out !!
I meant you could run just 1 bucket without needing a chiller... But it will need daily control in flower...Is that because the large volume of water stabilises the temperature EventHorizan?
