Hey just looking for any advice on my set up, I just can't seem to get it right. It's a sterile DWC, running green plant 3part autopots feed program. The light is a viparspectra p4000.

Looks good from here.
Your light is your limiting factor. I have nearly that wattage in my 3x3

agree with Boatguy -
Looks like you're using about 16 sq ft of grow space right now @35w/sq ft, you should be running (IMO) at least 550w
I run my 4x4 flower tent at 750w

have fun

Looks more like a 5x5 or bigger to me. There is alot of room around the 5 gallon buckets

So the tent is actually a 8x8. So another light or better coverage light would is the go.
Does anyone run sterile DWC, if so how much and how often should I add it?
I change the nutrients once a week and top up the 3rd or 4th day in the week. I added 15ml of 6% to 10L, I also dilute it in 200ml of water before add it to the nuts. Is that about right or should I add it more often

My 4X9 tent is hung with 1,600w LED
So your 8X8 could run at 3,000 watts. 2,250 would be my minimum.

I used tap water when I did DWC, co can't help there.
