Wow thanks for that Bugbee paper. Great and informative. I was thinking less is more in terms of plants. But I reckon 8x5 gal buckets would ideal. Gives room for error

No not in 2 or 3 days, revenging a plant takes a very long time. I think initially the plant stresses out and puts on more trichomes "sun block" as a defence mechanism. I used to leave lights off but then I'd be stressing more than the plant would, I be worrying about the temps and humidity...

No, if anything you should put lights on 24 hours for the last 2 or 3 days. Accordingly to Professor Bugbee from lab studies increase in light at the end increase in trichomes as the plant tried to protect itself. I haven't tried it yet.

I was thinking I should get a bigger than needed air pump at least I can't turn it down and still get great results

I love the uniformity of your plants. I'm not in the US man. In prohibition land. I'm feed Mills nutrients. I've tried a bundle of different brands but this mills stuff holds pH very well and mixes great also doesn't break the bank. Simple to use.

Great advice, especially on the noise. I want to run 8 in a custom build shed/structure so I'm worried about the vibration a little bit. A street runs on the other side of the wall. Time will tell but soil I find hard to get rid of. The water I can just dump down there drain

Wow man you're truly doing gods work there. It can be hard at times but damn it's worth it. Dwc is king if you ask me. Once you get used to the pH and ec fluctuations you don't have to check so much and it becomes very easy

Wow nice all with a t5, I'm not going rdwc. To much shit to clean and possibly get clogged. My current dwc plants are drinking a gallon every 36 hours. A gallon a week? How? Hey sharing secrets is what we here for man.

Cool man I was thinking also of the 5gal buckets. They sell specific ones for it here so if you want to turn it into rdwc you can. I do prefer the idea of being able to move them. Cheers man. Nice plant

I'm finding dwc the easiest way to grow, trouble free, big smellier yields and super fast growth. Autopot is the easiest way but I've had a lot of problems with the system so after about 18 months I stopped using it. No soil to carry in or dump is great. I still do soil grows with autos

Oh on another note autopot have a new product that fits in the bottom of the pots so they aren't rest in water constantly

I ran a water pump in the res, it would turn on for 15mins every couple of hours. Still wasn't good enough. I washed the res every week. I was on top of things. Nutes would still go nasty and shit. I'm doing dwc now and absolutely love it. Something goes wrong you can fix it with immediate...

I'm relatively new to DWC. I've had two very successful grows. They are only in 12 litre/ 3 gallon buckets. I'm having to refill them every day, they almost drink half of the bucket in a day it's insane. I'm getting a kick ass 8x4 tent and was thinking of just 4 large totes in that tent maybe...

I haven't had great results with this method. Some strains work great others not so much. I would tell you under no circumstances should you use pebbles in the bottom, autopot even say there is no need. I've had so much trouble with pH using pebbles in the bottom. I personally use 50/50...

Very nice man. Those size buds is why I kept using them but the infection was just to much. Can I ask you did you use plastic pots or fabric and you said you use coco/perlite what ratio was it? 50/50?

I've had amazing results and disasters. I had an autopot system in the attic and the valve decided to remain open and had a flood. Leaked through two floors. Then I had another flood in a different room that was way worse I had about 40 litres leak all over the kitchen underneath. But they had...
