First you want to remember that bubbleponics is just a coined word, like frisbee. It can mean different things to different people. I don't use bubbleponics, I use simple dwc with a high level of bubble action, and no water pump (per the original post).Ok i researched more on the internet about bubbleponic , can i do this setup in a fish aquarium ?
if i figure out a suspend my pot over the water...
Whenever he can you see whats more simple than that is having a feedertube comming from the submersible water pump,pumping nutrients into the cup 24/0 until the roots hit water..Its an auto feeder you dont have to MANUALLY do it..does the EXTRA work for you for 25.00 moreDo you have any regular watering schedule ?
Thats exactly what im going to do but i was wondering how long and how many times a day i should do. I was thinking about 3 times a day for about 5 minutes , is that alot or not enough ?Whenever he can you see whats more simple than that is having a feedertube comming from the submersible water pump,pumping nutrients into the cup 24/0 until the roots hit water..Its an auto feeder you dont have to MANUALLY do it..does the EXTRA work for you for 25.00 more
I know about the airstones running 24/7Most of us run the water pump 24/7 until the plant has a decent root mass in the water. At that time you can remove the water pump.
You'll still need to run a couple of airstones 24/7 also.
Good luck!
Let's not hijack this thread more than we haveNice... But i could put the rockwool directly into system , rigth ?
What size of rockwool ?
Especially when the pump and tubes don't work as well. They can't be finely adjusted and they clog and are unreliable. Plus the pump creates heat. If you want to do drip you may as well do it from above and let gravity do it instead of pumping water up to let it fall back down. It's counter-intuitive on it's face. Anyone wanting to get it right will try various approaches, unless they have a vested interest in promoting one.I don't understand spending the extra $25 to deliver water to the cube when all you have to do is raise your water level until the mist from the breaking bubbles does it for you.
All you're doing is creating an extra piece of equipment that has the chance of breaking down and causing issues.
I've read and understand how bubbleponics works, but I still can't see the benefit.
so you only have an air pump blowing bubbles 24/7 but no tube going to the net right?Especially when the pump and tubes don't work as well.
