Bucket Ebb & Flow Growers: Show me your VEG setup! Do you veg in flood trays? Smaller buckets? Regular buckets then just move em? How much light are you using for veg vs flower? 400w veg 1000w flower? Do you have to transplant?

+rep for every post with pictures of the flower and veg rooms for Ebb & Flow style systems!

I'll post mine later tonight........... Nothing special though, just smaller buckets on their own E&F controller/reservoir and a germination room.

Looken for that rep lol. Here is my wonka paradise :mrgreen:

I use aero cloner to establish roots with 1/2 strength clonex. My mother room is a 400w mh and some t5s. Veg room and flower room are CAP ebb and flo systems. In veg I run 2 600's over 24 buckets but I wanna do another 6. Rooms have 3 inline fans. Veg has export and passive intake and flower has one for intake and exhaust. My flower room is running 4 1,000 watters over 24 buckets. I am doing 12 plants a month or always hope to :roll:

I use STG (hehe Kitty, cant knock it till ya try though :-?) and use the much cheaper tornado with a combo of net pot lids for 5 gal buckets. I wish they were snug on my buckets but they don't have any for our systems buckets. I improvised these a lil. I just swap inner buckets into flower room when it's that sets time. Thanks for letting me share :mrgreen:

Less than a week till Im burnen some strawberry cough :eyesmoke:

coop-- where did you get those lid/bucket cover things? is that in place of the inner bucket? they look way better for being able to rotate your plant with

You can order them all over net or obtain at local grow stores. They are net pot lids for I believe 3 gallon buckets. Run a few bucks a piece I belive. I got 48 and can look up where I got a good deal if ur really interested. I actually have now started to cut the bottoms out of the center of the net pot and leave a lip to keep media in place. That way I don't have any root restriction and they fall straight down. I plan on cutting some of this pvc I have in my garage to place under the bucket inserts to keep the roots out of the sitting water.

The lids aren't snug but stay in place fine. I can put my 3 foot bamboo stakes in through the net pots and into the bucket if ever to heavy. But being you are probably rocken baked clay and rockwool your net pots would be heavy enough : ) hope this helps
