can you guys post the pumps/air stones you are using for the people that are using 5gal buckets? or even the people that arent, i want to get a 8 plant dwc going with 5gal buckets and im wondering what i should buy pump wise.
Sure,
I use a General Hydroponics air pump that feeds into 4 buckets at a time.
This pump is specifically made for hydroponics, and has been known to run up to 8 buckets.
But I like to run only 4 off of this one pump for maximum air.
I need to get another one because Iam expanding to 8 buckets myself.
Price about $65 a pop.
And I use 1 heavy duty air stone per bucket.
I may be switching to a flat airstone next time..I dunno.
Good luck, and Welcome to the wonderful world of dwc!!!
