2 site DWC setup

20 gallon rubbermaid storage container, 2 6" holes in the top (dark, dont let any light in)
dual or 4 outlet air pump, air lines, and 4 air stones
6" netpots, enough hydroton (clay balls) to fill them

Add clones, keep water level almost at the bottom of the pot. Once roots are emerged, lower it 4" below the pots. Dont have to change water as much as 2 5 gallons, takes up less space. I just finished one of these. It produced about 20 grams of premium Trainwreck. The G13 plant is about 3.5 feet tall. Its producing over 50 grams. I flowered them after 2 weeks of veg. From 10" to 3.5 feet in 9 weeks.

Just make sure the water stays below 72 F. Ice bottles work fine.
