Yea . I spent I think 38 on a vivosun 6 plug 940 or so air pump. I use 2 stones per bucket . If your only running one bucket I’m sure you can find air pump at Walmart for 15 or so .

i'm honestly not sure?? i'm guessing i'm stuck in the bucket - but i'll definitely get some 8 gallon EZ STOR buckets and some current culture lids with 5.5" net pots for the next run.
You can cut roots. That's how you get a 2 month veg in a 5 gallon bucket and then flower in the same bucket. Just a thought.

You have compost. Temps don't matter as much lol.
So you bubble compost tea w/nutes in your DWC?
I've got a batch of tea going right now. Not aerated because my air pump is old and makes too much noise.
Makes the wife complain... :roll:
-- edit --
I'm gonna hit the co-op today for a gallon of cal-mag and might pick up a better air pump.
I don't really feel like soaking & rinsing coco so maybe I'll grab a couple bags of basement mix.
$13.50 is the best price going around here for 1.5 cu ft.

I bubble compost tea, then add a half cup per gallon in my bucket once every 15 days.

I use manure tea for feed. The compost is just for the additional benefits.

You can get a big air pump (6 outlet) for around $40. It's not super quiet but it's not terrible. Aerated tea is much better. A lot more to your microbe count.

Compost tea makes the world go round in my opinion, especially in hydro. Ph, water temp, etc matters much less. Wasn't sure if I could run a bucket with manure tea, but it's doing fine.
