these pics should better explain things.


I have two trays that are actually designed for Rockwool slabs, but I filled them with Hydroton and Transplanted my Rockwool into the hydroton. I flood the troughs, and it drains back to ther res by gravity. I keep one side higher than the other with books so it drains freely.

I had some overflow issues when I first started and I also ran into some over watering problems, but Throughout the grow ive worked out the kinks and I got everything dialed in before I flowered them.

Very simple setup. Flood the trays and let gravity drain it back. I like simple.:thumbsup::jointsmile:

sorry for the shitty pic.

drudown11 Reviewed by drudown11 on 12-01-2010. Closet-Ponics Alright so this is my second hydro grow, ive grown with DWC before and I feel that im ready to really dip into olther hydroponic methods. I started my clones in rockwoll cubes and then transplanted them into bigger cubes upon rooting. I made a batch of nutrient solution. (5.5 PH and at 190 PPM) that included "Great White:, Big bloom, and grow big. Its a pretty weak mix but I have seen no signs of over fertalization. I made a drip irrigation system with a cheap water pump and five gallon Rating: 5

real purdy :thumbsup: yum yum yum. i might have to give this a shot in my closet. dwc systems seem like a fun experiment :rastasmoke: t5 and hps good little combo man

I was reading your grow and saw something at the local hydro store that sparked my interest. Dont mean to be a copy cat but I bought one just for shits and giggles. Well see if these things actually put off enough c02 to improve plant growth.

I've lowered the PPMs of my base nutrient and added 2 ml/gal of purple maxx and also added 3 ml/gal of BUD XL. Noticed a little tip burn a couple of days ago, letting me know I've hit their limits.



Ive also noticed some light bleaching on my purple plant directly under the light. You can notice it a bit in the picture. I raised the light a as much as i could.
