Awhile back someone asked about the main pieces and instructions on setting up a hydroponic system. I was wondering why the Q was never answered, and would also like to know the cheapest way to make a hydro system with instructions on setting it up.

i guess the best ones i used was Deep water, it the method of letting the plant soak in the bucket filled with water, nutes and a air stoned being pumped wtih LOTS of air the only problem is keeping light from reaching the nutes and keeping the water cold around 58-60 degs

I thought this was much better then other methods because its the only one where you can move and treat each plant as there own.

when i have time and money i will make a nice setup and doc all of it on here

hey how much are you expecting to $pend? like for the whole setup thing

Well, the cheapest one I ever made, I hammered together some boards into a long box, and filled it with pea-gravel, and poured nutes in it every day. The plants grew great, and that was under shoplights. That was in '78, before I knew to switch to 12/12. Ed's first book came out the next year.

Here's a set-up for a closet:

Watch this video, it was great viewing the process from start to finish, it's a bit long (1hr + few min's) and was very enjoyable and educational.
