Build own dwc system (help)

Anyone got a link or thread to a good do it your self dwc system? I'm thinking a four plant system in a 10g tote or something. I'm very unfamiliar with hydro so all help is appreciated

igloo coolers have worked well for me. they cost a little more than say a tote or buckets but well worth the cost.

How big do you intend.letting your girls get? 10g sounds a little small for four but its all relative to the size you want to take them... I have a long 35ltr storage container that I put in 3 sites, representing 2 week stages, then I have anotheranotheranother 2 separate pot like totes 30ltr? For the last four weeks... So I've got 5 girls in flower constantly...

Take a look at the pics in my thread of my set up ask anything you need to know in there I'll be happy to help you out my tubs are 20 gal and fit 4 6 inch net pots in each I only use them for veg but u could flower in it np

with a tote at one point you're gonna have to worry about cooling the water. this is why I suggested insulated coolers like several people use. it's a little more cost up front but in the end dropping a big ice cube in will handle cooling for a few days. you won't do that with a uninsulated tote/bucket.
here's some photos that may give you an idea or two. it's as simple as a bucket with a hole drilled in it for tubing for the airstone or can get complicated with sprayers and pumps and filters. good luck and happy growing.
