You certainly have to have seen the thread?

I GOTTA LOSE THE AIR PUMPS! HOW?! Plus my awesome mini DWC :)

That's cool man. Pretty low-key. I think you'll be surprised at the pressure of mine. i can't remember now, but its some where around 5-600 gph

That thing is way overpriced. The whole thing sits on a very simple method of splitting the water to oxygen and hydrogen. In big system I’d be worried about the hydrogen gas... I was looking around and saw 2 more very interesting thing. First one called Carmin. I don’t really get how it...

The miniature system uses an inline.

nah but when I move that's gonna be a long time but im fine for now im going to do something like that but I would prob use 3inch piping for return to the res just because I would be doing a 12 site one. but I want something to make sure all the sites get even pressure.

was asking about how u did the manifold. I found it out, also how is the pressure to all sites is it equal?

By giving the water enough of a larger diameter piping (3/4")to reach each bucket and by then reducing that diameter to a smaller size(1/2") at equal spots on the manifold that are equal lengths too. Water under pressure will always take the path of least resistance. So if you just always keep that in mind when you're putting it together, it makes it a lot easier.

Having personally run DWC, RDWC, Flood and Drain, DTW, Aeroponics, and now currently using a Waterfarm, for single site single plant, Waterfarm for the win, for multi plant SOG style DTW or Flood and Drain would be my recommendation. If I had a nice cold basement floor though, I'd probably run nothing but DWC/RDWC. My $.02

Maybe depending on the environment you might need a chiller maybe not some places in winter ;) power savings i guess

I would think hempys are the easiest form of hydroponics
Check them out, no pump required!

you could use coco or perlite or both as your medium. With coco, there are steps to preparing it though.

Waterfarm (or a home made drip ring system) with hydroton is probably gonna be your easiest method to grow 1 singular plant. It you want the same simplicity but a larger scale to grow multiple plants, go with F&D. I have a F&D build that is proven and cost less than $50. Both work on waterfall dynamics so theres no need for a hot, noisy bubbler.

HydroRed's DIY Budget Flood and Drain (approx $40)

This is an easy and affordable DIY Flood and Drain build. Anyone who knows me knows I like to do stuff on the cheap and this project is no different. This can be used either with the tray in the tote, or tray on a table and the tote as the reservoir. PARTS NEEDED: (1) "ODJOB" brand 7 gal mixing...
