Ok, plop your WELL rooted clones in the BOTTOM of your net cups with hydroton around your rooter. Now set the water level just a small bit below the bottom of the net pot and set the bubbler right in the center. That should splash the water up to the roots in the net cup really slightly and inspire them to come down.

Once they do you want to keep lowering hte nute level leaving 1/3 or more exposed to air.

Luck!
herbie the love bud Reviewed by herbie the love bud on . DWC questions! I have been growing for a while now and have use the whole waterfarm setup to grow my plants. My question now is that I'm setting up a DWC system using 4 5 gallon buckets with 5" net pots and each bucket has an airstone in it and I need to know how high should the level of nutrient/water solution be? Right at the bottom of the net cups or will my plants just learn that they need to extend their roots down to get the nutes? I have 4 clones that I will be putting in them and I didn't know Rating: 5
