Like the thinning out of it? Like it's supposed to be thick like the bottom?

 

[Lordhooha]

I seen you have have very little hydroton in your net pots. Light exposure an cause it too.

That sludge

 

[NineFivePepper]

Ah, I see. I assumed the hydroton was to be level with top of net pot?

 

[Lordhooha]

What are your water temps in the buckets. You shouldn’t have sludge.

Yah it should it adds support for you plant.

 

[NineFivePepper]

Water temps were the only thing I was not monitoring. Very possibly the culprit

 

[NineFivePepper]

But these pictures I'm posting right now as I break them out of their pots, the hydroton is already dumped out lol

In hydro water temp is key. Lol I was making sure. I’ve seen some shady stuff before.

This was really just a test run for me lol I built my own system to try it out. As soon as this is over I'm hopefully going to have enough scratch to build a different system for coco

My current system is simply 27 gallon hdx brand totes hooked to a 55 gallon res to make a pretty rdwc system. 8 inch net pots and plenty of room for roots in 27 gallons.

Lol yah I have that room set with some overflow protection too. Drill a 2” hole drain like in your bathroom sink an simply plumbed into my basements sump.

I do this but with 12 gallon totes in a 4 site. Well will do. currently I'm working my 2 site bucket rdwc but have the whole system fabbed. I ended up just cutting bucket tops off and mounting those to the hdx lid then just using the 6" bucket lid pots. I posted a couple pics in the dissent grow thread if you're curious to see the lid deal.

Pooooohhhhhh I definitely do not have the resources for all of that. I admire the time you put in and I would absolutely hate trying to keep that res stabilized so I hope all that work is worth it in the end.

This is this one first run my old one was a 12 site 13 gallon bucket setup. Considering how this one doing I’ll add the other two next run. But I also run a dirt room and a mother/baby room.

Nah it's only about 45 gallons all full with 4 sites and control. It's makes it pretty easy to maintain ph. The 2 site I'm running now is only 20 gal and I top up twice a week in full bloom and ph once a week. The whole setup is pretty cheap. 30 worth of uniseals 40 on totes 10 on pvc. Have all the tools I needed. And the buckets. I had like 12 buckets so sparing those was no problem. I find that I collect this crap over the years.

I hear you I kind of scrounged most of mine. However, next setup I want to do a 4x8 tent with two LEDs with coco instead of DWC.
