Veg chamber, budget

ebb n flow in my opinion is better as explained to me dwc is run by an airpump with the roots submerged in the solution anything go wrong with the pump,over a period of time you can kiss your babys goodbye as in the ebb n flow you flood and drain as accordingly to how wet the media you are using is..dwc might be easier and cheaper but ebb n flow could be alot better for many reasons

I nervous as the cops always watch the hydro shops! But i jut read a faw on tire much and lava rock. LAva rock absorbs minerla salts as does leca and tire mulch does not absorb that much water. SO i wud i guess flood more often, like every hour. I hear that a good thig tho becasue that gives more oxygen to the roots, flooding. I read that yesterday and was suprised. Its the flooding that and the water leaving that gives the roots theri oxygen. Looking at how the plants wud rest in the porus and spacious hydro media i though it was between flooding
