    Hey guys.
    I have made my 1sy hydro set up.
    I was wondering how big the reservoir should be?(i hope that is what you call it)
    i have 2 about 11" pots hooked up calculating from the drip feeder(at the top) through the pots & back to the reservoir where the pump is.
    What do you guys think is a good size?
    i have also put a couple of taps in the pipe so I can use the same pump to empty the water/nutrients down the drain.(its set up in a spare bath room).
    I just have to work out what medium to use & my clones will be ready from my mate in a week.
    Then yahoo we are off.
    I hope that made sense. I am a total armature as some of you may have worked out....
    Oh yeah 1 other thing.
    Doing it the way I have do you think both plants will get the same feed or will one get more that the other? I will post pics if need be.
    Shine on.

    For just two plants you wouldn't need a very big resevoir. TO give you a comparison I use a resevoir that is around 45 liters for 12 plants in my drip table. With only two plants if you get a big resevior you will be throwing away a lot of nutes every week. VV

    Copy that.

    I have a 10 liter container with a lid.
    I will drill some holes & use that.

    Thanks mate.
