Alright.... I was hoping for a little more excitement from the forum. I thought it was a good idea. Anyways, maybe with a little hybridization, I can make it a more efficient system. So, the next step in my creation is a little ebb and flow action. So, what I'll do is get 2 25gal storage tubs and two 60gal submersible pumps. Then I will set the pumps on a timer to fill the tub (one inch above the bottom of the net pot) 3 times during the day and once at night. It would then drain back into the the smaller tub. In between actual full times, it will have about 7 inches (18 gallons) of nutrient solution DWC style with my bubblewands. Does this seem like a good setup? Can I get more oxygen to the roots any other way? Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Vetteman7 Reviewed by Vetteman7 on . 600w DWC system idea Well... I've been growing in soil for almost a year now and I'm ready for the switch to DWC. I use a SOG method where i pluck the lower growth tips that branch outward. I would like to put two 55 gal rubbermaid tubs under my 600w. Could I grow 18 clones in 5 inch net pots per tub (36 in all)? The usable area for each of the tubs is 42" x 20". The air pump I get would be used for both containers with 3 48" bubble wands (under the plants) in each container. The smaller one puts out 1.34 cu. Rating: 5
