DWC first Grow. Any suggestions??

[WakeBake]

I'm a big fan of DIY'ing stuff. Not being able to find something I want to buy is an excuse for me to try and design it and make it myself. But that's most of the fun for me personally with growing. I know not everyone is like that and you do have to do what you have to do. It's just that I know the pain of having too many plants in too small a place and crowding each other out. It especially sucks with hydro and dealing with the nutrient solution.

I used to use 3.5 gallon buckets to start plants in. They are the same diameter as 5 gallon buckets so the same net pot lids fit either. Also used the smaller 3.5 gallon buckets to set the plants in temporarily if I had to get into their 5 gallon bucket to clean or res change and needed them completely out of the way for a bit.

I will try that. Maybe start them on 3 gal and move to 5

They are handy to have - I like them more than using something like a storage bin. I used the 3.5 gallon buckets for cloning as well.

Starting with a 3*3*6 grow space which can be increased. The others that you see will be grown organically outdoors. Tent will have these two and the two autos only.
Starting with a KingLED 1000W dimmable veg/bloom switch grow light. Which will be placed like 3 ft in height from the plant.

Nice. Soujds like a decent plan.

Your doing dwc outdoors then?

Nopes dwc will be all indoors. Organic growing is all outdoors.

Ok good. Best of luck.

Most people say organic gives better taste. Seems like you will have a good first hand experience.

Is this a deficiency or a nute burn?
Can someone help?
I was planning to move this in a different bucket today.
