Should I add more buckets?

They veg for about 40 - 50 days in my veg room before moving to the flower rooms to veg another 5 - 7 days and then flower.

I made my trellis rigs with 1/2" galvanized pipe, they are 5 feet tall and 4x8. I can string up some hortitrellis to hold up the nugs and the lower layer is for training the plant out sideways to fill the footprint.

I was gonna say yes when I just glanced at the thumbnail. But then I saw the white pipe and enlarged the picture. DWC is a whole diff monster, lol. As long as your dialed in they grow so fast that after you figure how how long to veg you will be able to fill that room up real well. If you got a place to get them a decent size before they go in the buckets then you could prob be huge by 30 days vegging in buckets, maybe even less. I myself don't like big plants but they do work great in dwc as long as you have enough light.

Just out of curiosity what is your lighting setup and do you run a chiller?

I've run plenty of stand alone dwc no chiller never a rdwc. I think it can be done, but I'd keep an eye on those temps and get some hydroguard from bontanicare. You can always freeze bottles and switch em out to keep temps down. Also if you have an ac you can just run cooler temps, I always ran cooler temps with Dwc for that reason and did well.
