I checked my water levels today after a frantic (and hot) week, and come to find all the buckets with barely 2 inches of water....very frantically mixed a new batch of nutes/water...3 gallons per bucket....

out of 4 plants, 3 looks like they're loving it and one looks like i started killing it. used half strength gh floraduo, and bud candy.

GHS trainwreck, flowering week 3

The roots will drink, they will grow, the water will be reduced.... Rule of thumb. Mix your solution. Top until an inch or two of the roots are submerged in the bubbling solution. The rest of the roots will hang above the solution in the air.

I havent done a dwc in a couple of years. This advice is archive memory. I had great results, better than my current soil grows.
