Sure you can, but you will need to make sure you have plenty of room for air stones and make sure that your roots have proper contact with the water initially when you transplant. I wouldn't expect you to grow tree's in that though.

Also, depending on the size of the res, you might have to add water often depending on how well your plants are doing.

BigV, what you are prosing is not really ideal. How many gallons will it hold and how many plants do you intend to put in it? If you plan on moving them into something else keeping the roots separate would be nice but, I wouldn't worry about it. If you are going to finish them in there then it doesn't matter at all.

Ideally you want at least a 10L bucket/res.. those roots get big & very quickly even in veg.. 6 inches is okay for the first few weeks but you will need to upgrade to a much bigger bucket or res.. If you plan on transplanting I would have them in separate buckets to start with.. coz those roots will get tangled & you'll have a nightmare getting them out without shocking them

That should be okay if you are keeping them all in there from seed until harvest.. just make sure you have enough airstones & keep the res topped up regulary
