Right back on track , heres some containers ive bought and some pumps / airstones for my DIY DWC ...
001.jpg002.jpg003.jpg004.jpg005.jpg
Got 2 x 12gallon containers with lids for the main grows and ive got 1 x 3 gallon container with a lid for a cloner and a 1 x clear 3 gallon tub for a humidity dome for cloner.
Pump has 2 outlets both are 300l/hr . also gonna buy a small pump for the cloner.
Need to buy some net pots n those neo collar things but need some advise from you guys or if any of you know any DWC growers send them this way lol ....

also how many plants would be an ideal amount in the 12 gallon containers ? i was thinking 2 ... is that enough or should i do more ?
Was also thinking about adding another airstone into each or the 12gallon containers , so there would be like 1 x 12inch airstone and 1 x 6 inch airstone in each one ... any point to this or would the 12inch be ok on its own.
Another thing is .. what would be the best was to empty these containers when i wanted to do a rez change? i was thinking a L bend valve with some tube on the side in the bottom of each container , this could act as a water level gauge but could also use it to syphon the rez into another container for a rez change ... would this work or is there any better ideas ??

Hi mate, a would fit the L shape valve like your waterfarm for emptyin, also another medium for the net pots would be hydrcoton pebbles this would save on the collars. I usually pop my seed in a root riot then in to the pebbles and if you mean a 12 & 6 inch airstone in each 12gal I think that will be plenty. I'm runnin Las' SLH in ma dwc jst now been in a dy or 2, hopin it'l save it n spur on some roots. My DWC is 18lrs and grows a nice sized plant with 7 dy veg got 3.5-4oz. Hope this is of some help to you

yeah mate ill use the clay pebbles in the big ones the collars would be for the bubble cloner mate to suspend the cuttings ;)
so your DWC is 18lt .. well these are 45lt , so you think i should do 2 plants in each one or you think i could get 3 or 4 in there aswell ??

Aah right for the cloner lol... Depends on what way your goin to grow them mate, if you were just goin to let them do there thing I'd go 2, if your goin to scrog I'd consider 3 or 4 as you'll fill your screen quicker. Less plants bigger tanks = less feeds n top ups in my opinion, I also think with good genes a few wks veg n a couple plants you could pull 12oz+ per plant, all down to how you wanna go mate???
