Thanks for the tip Dellinger.
Here are my two Critical Mass trees vegged for 6 weeks from cutting under a vertical 400w and flowered under 3 x 600w vertical bulbs for 9 weeks.

I found these buckets to make a D.I.Y waterfarm system that has more space for roots. All the buckets are 9-11/16" square so a 2 gallon pail will fit into a 5 gallon one so you have over 3 gallons of root space. I have ordered the 2 gallon and 4.25 gallon and will be hoping for half the yield heath gets. anyways check out this link and tell me these wouldnt work great. http://www.thecarycompany.com/containers/squarepails.html
Sounds like a good idea there, Im going to look around U.K for something similar.Would you have a mist sprayin the roots aswell or just let the bubbles do the work?
I'd keep it simple for my first run, but I was thinking of a way of using aeroponics to mist in the upper bucket, seal it with a lid and 2"neoprene foam ezclone inserts, but that would require an extra pump and seconds on/minutes off timer for the sprayers. I have to run 7 seconds on/15 minutes off right now, constant spraying in my aeroponics boxes leads to root rot and failure, but I would like to try it! I did just get Ionic grow/bloom/boost nutrients and found out that why its so hard to find here in the states, because it works and its inexpensive compared to my H&G line I used to use.
Hey Heath, would you happen to have any experience with soil? im on my first grow (600w), 1 week into flower n idk if i should overlap the veg nutes with the flower nutes?
