Hey guys. Tomorrow I'm going to start flowering my 3 ladies who grow in hydroponics. They are all clones from a buddy of mine and have been growing vegging a couple of months.

Tomorrow I'm going to start flowering in a 4x2 tent I bought. I have 2 600w Full Spectrum Mars Hydro LEDs to grow with. I'm growing the three ladies in a 5 gallon bucket each. They are in systems I made which have 2 Air stones per bucket as well as two pumps.. One to with a sprinkler head attached to it spraying water from bucket directly up to roots. The other pump is in to help recirculate water in bucket. I'm going to use Canna Aqua Flores for flowering nutrients as I used Canna Aqua Vega to veg them. What all do you guy recommend and any tips appreciated!! Will attached pictures below once tent is setup tomorrow as that's when it arrives.

Oh no defensiveness here. Just picked this up off a bud. 40 for bob. Thought it was a deal. Guess not. What do you recommend for about $100 - 150 AT MOST.

You can just finish this grow with what you have available and save some money for a better light, you can't afford any light with your budget

is it your first run with this hydro system?
2 pumps in a bucket will probably add too much heat to the water. Water sprinkling to the roots isn't necessary.
If you got a big enough air pump you don't need anything else to recirculate the water.

Keep it simple, DWC rocks with just an air stone

@Nutria Yes first hydro setup. Not exactly deep water. Only fill to 2.5 gallons which I why I sprinkle water up to roots. Could you recommend a good setup for a 5 gallon bucket for a beginner like myself. I have 3 plants in 5 gallon buckets

I loved DWC and I would advise you to use that system, hard to make something simpler than:
- bucket
- netpot
- air stone
- air pump

I usually hand water for a few days till roots pop out through the netpot, then they will survive and grow thx to bubbles. When roots hit the water game is done, provide enough oxygen and enjoy the show.

So all I really have to do is raise water level and take out the two water pumps I have in bucket and leave airstone. Roots in two buckets are already in water through net pots.

Yes, you want almost all the light intercepted by leaves. You can either run more plants, or veg longer... I find longer veg pays for itself in increased yields and better weed.

I’ll see how it all looks in rent tomorrow and go from there. Def will veg longer if light gets to floor which I’m almost sure it will bc the tent is pretty much the same size as the area it’s in now.
