hydro setup advice
ok, so i'm thinking i want to move onto hydro. it seems like there are a lot of benefits... but, i need some help.
i was wondering what would be the best setup to use for like a small 4 plant setup? i'm not looking to do anything crazy, just a basic setup. i've seen the waterfarm setup, the 1stmarijuanagrow and hydroponicsonline and considered all of them. i have the most interest in the wf setup, but i can't seem to find a good detailed instruction on how to set it up. i am open to any other thoughts as well
lastly, i am clueless with nutrients, how much, how often, etc... i would appreciate any helpgman420 Reviewed by gman420 on . hydro setup advice ok, so i'm thinking i want to move onto hydro. it seems like there are a lot of benefits... but, i need some help. i was wondering what would be the best setup to use for like a small 4 plant setup? i'm not looking to do anything crazy, just a basic setup. i've seen the waterfarm setup, the 1stmarijuanagrow and hydroponicsonline and considered all of them. i have the most interest in the wf setup, but i can't seem to find a good detailed instruction on how to set it up. i am open to any Rating: 5

gman...everything you need is on this page at bghydro:
http://www.bghydro.com/BGH/items.asp...atus=0&Tp=&Bc=
Once at this page, click on top system for 169. bucks and there is a PDF format instruction page. If I were starting now with the knowledge I have now; I would start with this...It is the simplest way to go, and bghydro has put together a package that will get you started within hours of opening those boxes.
If you are sold on waterfarm, get it. It is a great commercial system you can add to and add, to get as many sites as you want to produce. I am sure that the waterfarm page, at link I gave you, will also have instructions.
The point is that BGhydro is very affordable, consistently the most all around competitive hydro store on the net.
whatever you buy from them, will come with instructions; Or, I can say with confidence that they will walk you through your set-up; If necessary.
bghydro. customer service is paralleled by only a few...without a doubt. There is Old School knowledge here that I find priceless!
I also like sunsethydro(freeshipping), and greencoasthydro(AN people). Good Luck, I hope this helps. lw

you will not go wrong with the water farm system. you can set up a eight bucket system in ab:thumbsup: out half an hour. if you don't want one that big buy the smaller systems. the only real mod that their system needs is to open up the holes in the upper bucket for the roots to drop down easier. my plants with their sytems are consistently six to seven feet high and about five feet across. i run my systems 24/7 and it works awesome. all you need is a couple of their buckets and a light and your in business.

also look up stuff on DWC, 5 gallon bucket w/ lid, airstone(s), small netted pots, hydroton, spray paint your buckets black (i usualy do that to keep it dark in the bucket) youll need to order nutes, or find a local hydro store. ive used air pumps for fish tanks instead of airstones. then get yourself some CFL, from walmart etc...
