Hmm thinking about ordering in a lil hydro setup from the states... reasonably priced with all the bits
i kinda fancied giving a lil hydro setup a shot too, maybe just one bucket but dont know what kind??? i grow old school basic organic soil. i like it coz its like the women i meet, very forgiving of my lil foibles. and dont need too much attention. i only wish they would shut up and sit innna fuckin tent most of the time :mrgreen:

Yeah, well some of them are individual buckets and they are really big, we were looking at one with 6 buckets plus the master bucket or whatever and they are 25l each which seemed huge. We want them to have a bit of room, but the sort of all in one containers are more appealing for me spacewise so I am liking this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/6-Site-DWC-Hydroponic-System_W0QQitemZ180472571086QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item2a0500e4ce

just had a look at that, looks like the sorta thing i'd try myself, have to wait till ive got this grow outta the way though( only 3 weeks or so from seed) and thatll be at least ten weeks. i just had a guy i oknow in the house and he's had his first crop from hydro but he nute burnt a few at the end so hes not that knowledgeable himself.

what kinda system are you looking at? is this one of the stealth hydro DWC kits?

DWC seems to be the only kits not readily available in the UK, other than home made dustbin ones on ebay, so i made my own for cheeeeeeeeeep. if it's something like NFT etc, then most are all avbailable in the UK shops such as basementlighting.co.uk etc

those things seriously suck, you'd get more return out of 2 seperate bucketsin that kind of space and only having 2 females,

yeah. i see people on these forums saying they plan to put 8 pots in their single tote. i'm a little bit wary about having 4 in my tote. i'd much rather have a few really nice size plants, but i need to be making do with convenience and small plants and such. gonna chuck my first DWC bucket into the flowering room tomorrow :)

bahaha, no safe houses for South Africans in court and at risk :lol:

"[But] I am convinced they have means to protect themselves in various ways - to name only one, they could resettle somewhere else until the case is finalised,
make me chuckle. Jub Jub should be locked up for good though, what a joke of a legal system that must be (for those who didn't read the story he's a hip hop artist who killed 4 school children in a street race and was happily bailed..)

that's my issue though, i had to opt for a certain style of hydro so that i could continue with a perpetual grow, and a pair of simple DWC totes seemed the most viable solution. not to mention one tote needs to be at full strenght with boosters and such, wheras the other needs to be just bloom feed and nowt more

i'm currently vegging with a little random dosage of canna hydro nutes. like with the canna coco you use A and B at the same time, but there is A and B for veg and A and B for flower, so lots of bottles! no doubt i'll cock up at some point :P never done anything water so i've a tote of 20l of water sitting for 24 hours then tomorrow i'll put in 30ml of A and B (half dose, 30ml per 10l and i have 20l) for a week just to get them really into it and then it's kapow till that last three weeks where i'll use some boosters and such for 2 weeks and then flush for last.

as i repeatedly let people know, i've read as much as i'm able to without wanting to faceplant, but it's still all very very vague, not too dry but not too wet, small bubbles hitting your hand etc etc, but at the end of the day i rooted 4 out of 4 clones first time by doing nothing but fiddling with the water level for a couple of days and then just leaving it be (well checking every 5 minutes :P but not changing nowt)

and thank god it's every other friday, that means i've to be up at 6 for work which while that sucks, means i'm halfway through my day before i even really see anyone. it's just dubstep and wellington boots till then :)

We were gonna go with soil first, then maybe build a hydro setup but figured a full set up that is reasonably priced sounds good. I know there is more chance for error, but we'll just have to be as diligent as possible and do our research!

I'm not sure if you would call it that, it's like the big tubs with the openings for net pots. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/6-Site-DWC-Hydroponic-System_W0QQitemZ180472571086QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item2a0500e4ce
Yeah, we looked around at kits in the UK but they're either really expensive or just too big like the other unit we were looking at which was 7 buckets at 25L each. We want decent size plants, but not really tall. We thought about making our own and doing our first grow in soil, but this seemed like what I wanted to do anyway and it's not a bad price
