So I have a heck of a situation on my hands

I am currently building a DWC 10 pot set up to in a 18' b=x 8ft high. And something sparked and I had a theory. With a system that uses a 55 gallon reservoir then off of that it feeds the different buckets. My question/theory is where would be the most beneficial to put your oxygen pumps or each individual bucket. I will kinda tell ya what I am thinkin and would just like some feed back


1.You can pack some SERIOUS airstones that are pond type quality and you could put a BUNCH of them in there.

2 placing individual airstones in each hydro bucket


Question which one would the PH be easier to control? My second question would be how far the superoxygenation water travel?

Why not both? Can one have too much o2 in the root zone?


Don't have so much agitation that it beats your roots to death, but......

More air pumps/air stones = more heat. If that's not a concern then I would invest in good air stones/ air pump and put it directly where the roots are. No need to waste electricity and have multiple air pumps or one air pump pushing 8+ air stones. As long as res temps are or bucket temps are 70 or below you should be good. The colder the water the more oxygen it can produce. Or something like that hahahaaha
