rdwc build

I was needing suggestions on how to fix my flow problem right now I have 3/4” pvc across the whole system. As my pump goes from the reservoir (on the right) to the 8 buckets I have found that the first two buckets (on the left) receive most of the pressure so it creates uneven water levels in...

Using an 800gph pump but not getting the water movement I expected, thinking about a Drummond utility pump but not sure what to expect for water temp fluctuation. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I also thought about adding another of the ones I have?

Hello everyone! So excited to finally start! Been dreaming of doing this for years, and there was just always something in the way! But now I got a 4 by 8 tent with an Evo 8 in it, plan on having more grow sites eventually but starting off smaller until I can get another light, Just four totes...

Hi everyone, My name is Agustin, i'm a grower from Argentina, and this is my first grow using hydroponics. My growing room specs are: 18m2 indoor - Mars Sunflash 153E (150w consumption, equals 400w sodium) 8 units (covering aprox 80cm x 80cm for each plant) - 6" Intractor with a flow of...

Hey guys, I have a question. Would it be too much if I added 3 more 90 degree elbow spouts that circle around the top of a grow bucket in a daisy chain fashion, creating 4 water falls of equal pressure? Like the builds from pahydroponics.com...

I am conflicted between a good conscious, go green, energy star system and a bada$$ top notch rdwc-waterfall diagonal halfpipe closet scrog. I have two plans, one combines gravity and the lowest wattage pump necessary to pump 80-120 gph into each bucket to complete a full recirculating...

Hello, So i need some help.. I built a 4 site system (Under Current design). 5 Gal round connected with 1.5inch Sched. 40 pipe. My return line is 3/4 with a 400gph pump. My flow is good and no leaks.. My issue is my (Res./Control) bucket is no where near the same water level and the 4 sites. All...

Hey guys and gals! I'm very new to growing and ROI. I'm currently on my first grow which is in soil. For my second grow I'd like to switch to RWDC. I'm not very handy so I've had to put a lot of time into researching how to make my own. I've finally compiled a list of the things I think I'm...

I’m looking to run a 4 site RDWC in a 4x4 tent. Each plant taking up about 2x2ft space. Plants won’t be super tall cuz tent is only 80in. I’m thinking about using 4 gallon square buckets, and I’m wondering if 4 gallon buckets will be big enough for the plants all the way through both veg and...

Good evening all, I’m finally at a good place where I can post about my first/current grow. 5x5 4-site 13g RDWC 1000w MH/HPS Jacks 3:2:1, Hydroguard and occasionally Tribus. Removed black PVC trellis today, it was great for training out the bushes. But the spacing was too small and not the most...

I'm building a new DIY RDWC build. Should it be: (a) just like the picture in the attachment... (b) kind of like the attachment, but 2 bulkheads on each bucket (c) more like a "Current Culture" kind of setup with an undercurrent... (d) try this...

so I haven't been growing for the past year and a half. I got kind of burnt out on it and decided to focus on some other projects. Now that time has passed I am looking to get things up and going again. I have a 20x40 barn with AC, 200amp electric, and semi finished to work with. I am looking...

Hey Everyone, So, I got bored and decided to take a crack at building a waterfall RDWC system (long-time bubble bucket user). Unfortunately, I'm having some issues that I can't seem to pinpoint. My setup: - 4x4 grow tent - Spider farmer SF4000 (currently dimmed to 410W and running 18/6) - Air...

Hi all....Can someone please clarify this for us regarding 5x10 rdwc flower gardens in rooms,,not tents. Question#1...What's the sweet spot for quality LED per sqft for flower? (Wth, for veg too)? I've heard 36-50 watts per square foot,,but as you can see, that's a wide range. I guess ppfd is...

Hey, I'm in the planning stages of upgrading to a 4 plant RDWC system, but I'm having problems finding suitable buckets here in Canada. I'd like the buckets to between 4-5 gallons, square/rectangular, and have a large enough space near the top to attach a 3/4" top feed line. Based on some...

Alright So this is my first ever post to a cannabis forum So bare with me please. So I have a 4x8 tent with 2 315 cmh I was gonna do a 12 site rdwc . I was either thinking by doing them in 3 rows with 4 5 gallon buckets per row and keeping my rez in side the tent or just doing 2 rows of 6 and...

Hey RUI. About to set up an RDWC grow room and just thought I’d share my room and set up. I see there are various pages for lighting and hydroponics but I’m going to try to clump all my set up stuff here, and begin my journal after I’m finished completing the room, and I’ve germinated my seeds...

I'm looking into what I need to build a x2 5 gal bucket, x1 5 gal rez, rdwc with waterfalls into the 2 5 gal grow sites. I'm totally new to the rdwc thing and I'm having a hard time figuring out the types of piping/tubing needed, the elbow reducers for thewaterfalls,and what type of seals to...

This was my first time ever growing with any sort of hydroponics and it was also my first time ever growing cannabis. I'm looking forward to my next grow, as I get better I plan on creating education content around growing cannabis properly and successfully. After all everyone wants to smoke...

I have started my first grow using a DIY RDWC setup with 20 gallons of water. The strain I went with is Show and Tell by Annunaki Genetics. My grow journal will be updated regularly if anyone is interested in following along or maybe giving me some feedback as we go. Raise you joints, blunts...
