DWC or DRIP SYSTEM
This is going to be another "agree to disagree" thread. It's all personal preference.
I prefer DWC 100,000,000 times over drip systems. DWC is super low maintenance. All i have is a 5 gallon bucket, a beefy airpump and airstone that runs 24/7 and there has not been a single problem since i started using this system. I use GH 3-part flora series. i love it.
I started with a drip system and i hated it. It was a tangled mess of tubes and clogged drippers. As far as watering schedules go...it depends...how hot is your room? are the lights drying the plants out too much between waterings? gotta find out for yourself. Dripping 24/7 is not recommended if you're using a medium like rockwool that retains lots of moisture. perhaps it'd be alright with hydroton or lava rocks.
i also started with B'Cuzz nutes. They were alright but i didn't know what i was doing when i had them. By the time i figured it out i had already moved on to GH.
I'd be willing to give both Drip and B'Cuzz another shot now that i have some more experience under my hat. But i think i'd try Soil before i went back to hydro drip.
