Ok I have read about these deep water bucket growings..... I can't remember their technical names (forgot) but one has a drip tube coming from the top downward into the pot, and thee other gets feed from the bottom upward to the bottom of the pot. PLEASE TAKE YOUR VOTE FROM WHAT YOU MIGHT HAVE ALREADY READ ABOUT THEM OR HAVE ACTUALLY USED THEM AND ARE HAPPY WITH ONE OR THE OTHER RESULTS.... I just want to figure out which I want try for my next grow. Please keep in mind that this will be my first NO SOIL grow.....Or have any of you gals/guys done hydro and thinks that soil is still a better way to stay HAPPY. Help me make my mind up quickly cause my seeds are just starting to show tap roots. Once again, Thanks folks. And Please do not attempt to answer this or take a vote if your already high....:mrgreen: :joint:

I find Ebb n Flow very forgiving.
Its my first try at hydroponics.
I set up my veg using E n F so when time came I set up my Flower tent the same way.
Plant is in rock wool surrounded by Hydroton.
my roots grow into the Hydroton and I am able to feed my veg 1-2 x daily and my Flower I feed 3-4 times a day.
If I let the roots get to dry they will air prune at the ends.

My plant looks happy and healthy!
Hopefully it will finish in about 5 weeks and be some great smoke.
I will be happy to have taken a plant from seed to harvest.

General Hydroponics Water Farm is a great system or you can do a DIY version for about half. I just prefer to spend the money.

It probably depends on how large a grow you expect to have on a regular basis. I have two plants at a time and use bubble buckets.

No offense veggie moster, but a quick search will answer most of your ?s. Go organic like the big boys.

IMO, which isn't much with hydro, I have a dwc/drip system. the drippers are nice to have at the beginning stages. super cheap. cheap insurance too... if my drippers clog(for who know what), the dwc always backs it up. I leave town a lot and its pretty "maintenance free" just ph and PPM. general cleaning ect. granted this is my first hydro grow, it puts all my other grows to shame.

I look at this pic and wonder how big these plants can get when they're so close together. Do these basically turn into one big cola and few branches?

Nice looking grow!
