    Advanced nutrients in rdwc?

    Unicorn piss in a bottle . Here here I'll do exactly that. The way they talk to you like this is miracle stuff you don't understand. I know they have the synthetic chelates EDTA DTPA and EDDHA which keeps things such as iron etc available in a wide pH range but that doesn't mean every macro and...

    Autopots? Anyone

    Yes my most disastrous leaks was from the older system that didn't have the gromits in each tray. You move those trays just a little and valve becomes loose. Upgraded to the new trays and never had leaks like that since. So make sure you get the modern trays with the hole. I still had issues...

    Advanced nutrients in rdwc?

    Well the rhino skin I use is potassium silicate. I usually pre mix everything in a tank and add air stones, the air always causes pH to rise. The source water is just regular tap pH 6.5 and ec .4 it's fairly good. I just don't get it. You're supposed to pH to 5.8-6.3 but they tell me not to

    Advanced nutrients in rdwc?

    Advanced nutrients claim pH perfect technology. I'm using it in rDWC currently and the pH is 7.5!! I contacted advanced nutrients and they say that their nutrient is available between 4-8ph and not to pH the solution. Should I believe this? The plants are fine it's confusing.

    Autopots? Anyone

    Used them for a couple of years they are great but I did have disastrous leaks a few times. The valve can get stuck or the little hole that the nutrients comes true can get gunked up and prevent it from closing resulting in a leak but also can result in the opposite and not let any nutrient...

    Does bucket size matter

    The current rdwc I have running have 2" piping I have no experience with other sizes but seems to work great. I think I'll stick to 9 gallons it seems to be truth bigger is better. Res doesn't need to be changed as often and pH and temperature of the water seems to remain more stable

    Does bucket size matter

    DAMNNNN!!!!! They are some serious roots. As someone said to me imagine you're growing roots not plants, if the roots are big and healthy then the rest will follow

    Does bucket size matter

    No they would both run on the same system since the buckets are the same height as the res and the res has a float valve that is connected to a tank so it could be so simply which I might just go ahead and do

    Does bucket size matter

    I'm doing 8 in an 8x4 tent but I'm not vegging for long maybe 30-40 days I have everything running perpetually so I have to keep it moving. So I was just wondering wether the bigger pot would equal a better yield.

    Does bucket size matter

    That's fantastic man, so you did bugbees course did ya? I was going to do it but spent the money on the alien system instead. I knew I was always going to end up doing hydro and staying with it. It's much easier once you figure everything out. That paper goes into amazing detail I didn't know it...

    Does bucket size matter

    Thanks for that man. I have a add back tank attached to a header bucket with a float valve. So you would fill the add back tank with plain water? I've been filling it with nutes and also changing the system weekly. Pain in the ass.

    Does bucket size matter

    I'm just deciding on wether to go 9 or 5 in dwc. Without vegging longer is it worth going 9 over 5 or is it a waste of time and nutes.

    Alien v system !

    I like how ya don't need an air pump or tubes and the speed the nutes move around looks great. Is it noisy much

    Does bucket size matter

    If I had 2 clones and vegged them the same length of time but one is in a 20l/5gal and the other is in a 36l/9gal would the yield be bigger in the bigger bucket or not considering they had the same length of veg

    Alien v system !

    I would have loved to get one of these systems but space is an issue. I'm on my second run using their silver rdwc system and love it
