Hey guys,
This is my first post so bare with me. My friend created a DWC reservoir system and I'd like to share pics of the one he built me/ a brief description of it with you guys. The reason this system was created was to eliminate moving the plant out of her grow medium when changing nute cycles or even changing water.
How It Works:
The water pump is placed into the cooler (on the top) and pumped from the cooler directly over the hydroton. It then drips down through the hydroton to the roots and ends up in the 5 Gal. bucket. On the side of the 5 Gal. bucket we placed a gasket with a hose that leads back into the cooler so it is impossible for the water level to get to high. The blacked out tubing prevents light from hitting the water (which can in time be bad). If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask! Hope this was interesting!
The cooler is open to show you the water.
Split air pump tubing that leads to both air stones.
Working.
Her leaves aren't ever left that dark on the bottom I just turned off a light and moved her mylar-covered box.
She's budding!
