Yea it is, actually I was having some issues with temp because I am only doing DWC right now, but I put some PC fans on my air intake for my aerators and it really brought the temp of the water down because the air moving passed the intake is much cooler now. Basically it is on the basement...

I have considered what you said because: The majority of the water of the system will constantly be in the tent, where only a minority sits outside the tent.. Buuut.. air is a really good insulator and there's some bubble on the reflectix and it would reflect off the all black pipes and buckets...

Well, title says it all! I don't use a chiller. I think a roll is only $60 the work is a little annoying, just wonder if it will actually have a benefit.

Well sadly maybe I shouldve said Im mostly looking for blueberry or strawberry cough to start since they are the biggest names I have heard of. I have seen hemp depot before I wasnt srue if it was legit or not I'll check around on it a bit more, or the James Bean. Humboldt seems good from the...

Hello I'm trying to find some genetics to try that would have a definite unique smell/flavor of fruit ideally. I have had blueberry before that smelled / hint of taste like blueberry from legal dispensary. Where can you actually buy the Blueberry f4/f5 seeds? Another strain I was interested in...

Thank you I check out your grow it's nice to see. The reason I change the res so often is just cause I was listening to podcasts with growers and they were changing their water every week. Simply to rebalance the nutrient mix I guess. So I just been following suit on that. I do add great white...

Thank you this has been very helpful. I see his RDWC "waterfall system" seems very efficent. I guess that's kind of what I'm realizing is being efficent and ease of use for particular grow tent size. Right now I just have 2 buckets in a 5x5 and unless I did a lot more training I can just see how...

Haha I got in there for my first full bucket change since they been growing and yes it is a PITA to literally lift the whole plant so I can get the bucket out. Can I ask, why do people use recirculating systems instead of say a reservoir outside the tank and a float valve that just keeps it...

I have 2 plants in my 5x5 with a 1000W light and I think I vegged em too long already lol they are huge. I thought about doing RDWC but DWC was lower bar to entry (they are pretty close since you can just buy a full RDWC system. I like what you said about the water outside the tent but don't...

I'm just doing 5g, no RDWC. So I have a big garbage pail I use to top off the water level daily with an aquarium pump and once a week I change out the entire bucket with a new solution/microbes. Just DWC with airstones in it.

My first grow and I am using 5G and I can already feel these are too small for my desire. I'm growing big plants, not 4 medium sized ones. The water change is too often. Anyone have some cool pics or suggestions of different totes or setups they have used with DWC and bigger than 5g containers...

Hello, Can I place my carbon filter on the bottom of the tent? The reason is because I'm annoyed the carbon filter is taking up 1 foot of space vertically in my 5x5 tent. This is so much wasted room I could grow my plant taller. 25sqft wasted for probably 3sqft of carbon filter and ducting...
