    How many autos in a 5 gallon dwc bucket?

    I have grown in dwc 5 gallon buckets for a while. I have always use the 6 inch net pot lids and did 1 plant in each bucket. If I were to go with blue dream autos and used a 8 inch net pot lid, how many could I fit into one 5 gallon bucket realistically? I feel that 1 per bucket and 4 buckets...

    Ready to Harvest?

    True, bigger issue was this was a sick/slow grow from start due to cal/mag issues. Never recovered 100%, but still grew, just slower. This is like day 100 of an 65-80 day auto. So want to get this one done, and make improvements and start next one.

    Ready to Harvest?

    Know the general rule is to harvest when you have about 50/50 of clear and cloudy Trichomes. The pics are not the best, only cause I do not have a steady hand at that high of magnification, but in your opinions do you think its ready?

    New to Reverse Osmosis water. What Steps do I need?

    Afternoon, After years of putting it off and dragging 5 gallon and 7 gallon jugs up a flight of stairs, I finally took steps to obtain a small but effective RO system. Its only purpose is for grow (and ice cubes), so a 50 gallon per day is fine. Reason, is that I have well water and...

    Quiet Fan and Filter for tent.

    Have and old fan, but it's like 115 cfm, so add in filter and it's below needed cum. Have a 8 inch can fan (big orange one), that I tried to use to vent multiple tents (Over 700 cfm), it's vented to another room to dampen sound. Main reason to have fan inside is tent will deaden sound more as...

    Can You Use Just Tap Water During the Final Flush week?

    I am working on setting up my new system using the newer "slucket" R-DWC system. Each bucket is 8 gallons and there are 4 plus the epicenter piece. With this system it is simple to empty the buckets (just turn couple valves), but can I use just tap water? Reason I ask is the last week you...

    Slucket DWC Design - Pro /Con

    I've seen these new Sluckets show up on the market and they look to work in the same fashion as the undercurrent systems. Link: https://www.slucket.com/ The main difference is they have a opening on the bottom that feeds the water up from the bottom and then overflows into 2 inch bulkhead on...

    Heat Reduction going from open bulb to enclosed vented hood?

    Well using a can max 700 fan for exhaust and using a 300 fan for intake that is connected to my central air, currently it won't hit higher then 85 with the ac off and the fan pulling the ambient air through the house. It the closest step I can do without dumping more money and electric on a...

    Heat Reduction going from open bulb to enclosed vented hood?

    I currently have a cheep 400 watt open bulb hid with the adjustable wings. Looking at getting a vented glass sealed hood for same bulb. Using an active fan for the hood, could I realistically a 10F drop in temp? better/worse? Thanks

    Undercurrent 4 Station Footprint?

    Not using bulkheads, but the huge rubber uniseals. they are suppose to be much better for round surfaces. I've seen these new sluckets and may use those next upgrade around, which I would use bulkheads.

    Undercurrent 4 Station Footprint?

    Ya I've done that before. it's been hit and miss. Had success with clone bucked and failure. Had success with rockwool and humidity dome and failure. I know the steps, just something in details that fails me at times. I know with success, it had always taken 10-14 days for good roots. Using...

    Undercurrent 4 Station Footprint?

    Mostly do seeds. Clones are only 75% successful currently. mostly stick with hybrids like blue dream. air filters are not up to par so avoiding sour and diesel strains.

    Undercurrent 4 Station Footprint?

    Well my current experience is from seed to harvest is taking about 4 month with DWC. I have 3 2x2 tents and 1 4x4 tent and been doing 1 plant at a time in cycles to try and have a perpetual harvest every month. Have alot of dead space since using the smaller tents. I can fit 4 4x4 tents in...

    Undercurrent 4 Station Footprint?

    Afternoon, I am curious if anyone knows the minimum foot print for the undercurrent RDWC system. I currently have a 4 foot by 4 foot tent. My plan is to keep the epicenter outside, but will the four 8 gallon stations fit in the tent with the piping as well? Their website does not states...

    Carbon Filter Mounted High or Low

    For purpose of smell control only, does it matter if u mount the carbon filter high or low in the tent as the 1st part in the chain? IE Filter->Fan->Exhaust I have another solution for heat, so this is only for smell. Thanks.

    Hydro Cloning - Limp Clones

    Well I know that seeds require no nutes, but as for the clones I was following the directions on the bottle, which is what I followed the last successful time. Got a tray and dome, so going to try and use rockwool method and see if I get better results. Thanks
