Basic plumbing for RDWC is easy, but well worth taking time and doing it right( cleaning up holes in buckets to get good seal,deburring pipe, whether PVC or vinyl so you don't break seal, Testing small amount of water for leaks, etc.) No joy in finding res. worth of water in tent or basement...

How do you seal them? Going thru bucket? Would be fine for basic lines, but vinyl tubing is cheaper as are Uniseals As far as return lines, can use wire mesh to withhold roots and still get flow.

Age old arguments for either Bulkheads /uniseals- but Uniseals are way cheaper and no matter which, use silicon sealer to avoid having indoor pool and would agree that Uniseals best for standard rd. 5 gal. buckets.And vinl pipe or PVC, deburr pipe before inserting thru seal(either) so less...

As Smok3y mentioned-Uniseal or bulkhead fittings and try for rectangular buckets(better seal) Research RDWC for more info and designs) Can't see how pex would work-used it to run inside water, but no type of thru bucket fitttings that I know of.

I usually put 1" layer of hydrotron in netpot, add seedling, then surround the rest for support- the seedling root will seek the res. water and the hydrotron acts as a wick- check after 4-5 days and roots should be emerging netpot and into res.Can also top water daily(small amount until roots...

Joe, 12 plants- 100 lbs.! Send me some of that LSD your hoarding- Typo issue- 12lbs.(1 per plant) I might buy into. Either that or come show me what you can do- Have 26 acres + thousands around- no worries. Greg was being real- I don't give 2 shits about real plant count- but here ( in New...

Like the way you put excess in quotes LOL I might have gone light in my post count, but not gonna say on post(maybe it was double the count LOL) getting older and can't always remember - general rule outside is to plant more than needed due to loss factor(i had a porcupine break off and...

Figure on starting reg. fem inside for 1-2 months veg. time- then outside after frost time-- have some big Oaks to put under to acclimate them, also thinking about some autos as test case. Haven't really decided on strains, but know Bos comes up with some winners. Haven't really researched into...

Shout out to Bosgrower, also-did a great deal of work on last year for split of crop & came up with amazing,cheap watering system with main res, submersible pump & drip rings. Feed & water out of 27 gal. res. Took 10 min. per session.Great friend!

Grew 8 last year(4 in ground w/ 50/50 Foxfarms soil & 4 in 7 gal. cloth pots) They were all clones and put outside 6/6/17- Did amazing & THEN the bud rot!! which seemed prevalent to most up here.Even used El Cheapo greenhouse for 4, but too late! Lost~ 2/3 cropEst. getting 7-8 lbs.-ended up with...

My biggest pisser was taking so long to get verified and get funds added from bank(still have to wait til next Friday)-Etherium went from my buy in @700, now its @ $1000 after 7 days (and my funds are tied up in Litecoin, after I got bored with ETH).Def. HODL(Hang on for dear life). Wish I...

Just got introduced to this addiction(Bitcoin,Litecoin, and Etherium)- trading on GDAX -made $50 in 2 days with $250.Like playing stock market, but much more volitile- but not bad to throw a little mad money at.

Our group has shrunk-no Mom, Stebbins,Chad- still have Bos & me- still trying to upgrade to led- just have to research hard-all advice is welcome- need to cover 4 by 8 and 5 by 5 tents- 5 by 5 would be first.Learned hard lesson on overcrowding in my 5 by 5- 8 plants- got less yield than I did on...

What other requirements are there? Have large outside area and have been doing inside within legal requirements for a year-my only issue is conviction from 20+ years ago. Central Ma. location But love growing and looking to go full time soon-just want to stay legal

using bubble buckets, get one of these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000HE9YEM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and using holesaw, cut access hole in lid to change water, draw samples, add nutes, etc- the root ball will get so big it will help you access res.. good ppm/ec meter...

That depends on how much height you have and how big a plant you want. I usually let mine get~ 2' tall before flipping, so 4-5' tall after stretch. also account for scrogging, fimming,etc.

Sounds like its "foxtailing"- this can be caused by genetics or heat/light stress- had it on my pineapple kush, so might be genetically inclined(pineapple kush being a pineapple express cross with og. kush)

I love the packs, but you will prob still need to burp for week or so. Get cheap hydrometer to put in jar with packs; once it is consistant @ around 62% your good.

Still working on it- but have 2 tents(4 by 8 and 5 by 5) so 6 per tent currently- have most of my plumbing parts for rdwc- but posted this for all the bubble bucket people that are struggling with the fill/drain issue
