DIY Aerogarden mk2

Okay, i have 25 2 gallon ex-paint tubs with lids. I know that we are going to have to get some pipe to connect the tubs so that they can all be fed at the same time. My problem is with the air stones, as in where do I put them? Do they go into each bucket, or in the main reservoir?

Also we're thinking of doing it by simply leaving the tips of the roots submerged in a mix of ph 5.5-5.8. The tips will stay submerged by a stop cock system that will be set up in an empty bucket. Once the level of the water drops, the stop cock will open, allowing more water to get in.

It all seems to make perfect sense to us. Hopefully it will to you too. Any help will be gratefully accepted.

sounds like it will work real good skunk!

Airstone in the main reservoir..... up

i look forwad to the pictures from this set up!!!

cheers

it may take a little while longer than we planned. We suffered a burglary. x-mas smoke gone. With x-mas and new year so close, i'm not sure exactly how long it's going to take to get back off the ground. Probably 1st week in january. I have something else on, only 8 grapefruit, so i may donate, no, I will donate some cuttings to help the other get back off the ground. They're only coming up to 2 weeks veg from seed.

Luckily the mo' fo's were amatuers, didn't take the lights, or a 1,000 pound sterling, oil painting on the wall. Bit of a setback, but fairly easy to bounce back from. To explain why all this has happened would take pages, and would also be too much information.

time for better locks. sry about your bad misfortune skunk.

It's funny you should say that Allmeat', those were our thoughts exactly. The good thing is that we know who it is.

yikes.. it is always a "friend"....

sorry to hear of your loss,nothing lower than a mull thief,and the worst thing is you never know if it was someone you know,i have a normal lock on my growroom,so it does not look suss ,as it is in an outside building,but i do have a fucking big bull mastiff,and a blue heeler{aussie cattle dog} both hate strange people,and if the pricks come through the bush to my place they are crazy,as it is near a creek that gets lots of snakes in the hot months,and it is a fucking jungle out there full of crazed kangaroos,stoned koalas,and possums that are not to be fucked with.
what goes around comes around skunk,hopefully the next house will belong to some jamacain posse member and the pricks get caught,that would truely be justice.
hope your mates look after your needs over xmas,have a cool yule brother.
