Thanks, I'm sorry... But for real. You just don't go around calling people boys and such? maybe I did get a little out of hand, and I shouldn't have, again... my apologies.

Anyhow, I look forward to getting some advice from you man... advice from experienced DWC growers and regular growers is always a huge plus, Not trying to knock off any of the dirt bags. = D
And since your in the DWC club, you obviously know what your doing....
Thanks for reading!
:weed:

Well I'm trying to post some pictures of the bucket's i made off of Rumple's design... So here's my first try!

Well done, Im curious on what you did to seal the fittings so they dont leak?
All I used was rubber O-Rings and Grommets on the fittings, simply followed Rumple's: Let's build a Bubble Bucket together, on Google. And then I tightened the fittings/adapters by hand. I used to be a Framer, so I have a grip that can crush. :bigjoint:
If you need measurement's and stuff, let me know... I'll post my Design with detailed instructions. = )

You say money really isnt an issue?
Lucky you. +rep for BALLIN!
Im pretty sure you have done your homework, so don't worry about the critics.

It's not Rumple's: Let's build a bubble bucket.

It's just... Let's build a bubble bucket together.

No pictures today, had to take a fuckin defensive drive class and I had another appointment on top of that, so I've been away from home for about 8 hours.
And the good thing about it was (KNOCK ON WOOD) I had a sack stashed on the outside of my truck in a place where I've never had one cop search and I've been searched about 6 times with buds on me and never got caught.

(WORD OF ADVICE)
Just because I didn't get caught doesn't mean you wont, I used to drug deal chronic only, and from the years of experience you learn to beat the cops sometimes, being honest is not always best... but sometimes, depending on the cops mood, and your attitude you will get of with a simple warning. HEED my words
Don't Try This unless absolutely positive that you can hide marijuana with out cops/dogs finding your stash. :fire:

P.S.
If I could, and I would... I would build these buckets and sell them for 30-40$ including S&H of course = )

Looking very nice! Like a pro, as far as dealing with the cops, its all about presentation. How you approach and handle ant given situation, AKA "swagger"
Keep up the good work

Been extremely busy the last few day, hence the no pictures...

But before I feel asleep last night, I was thinking about RIU and the question's I ask.

Anyhow, one of the questions that wasn't fully answered was about Nutrients.

So, I'm gonna try to ask this question again.... or question's.

1. When should I start giving nutrients to them at what strength? (tablespoon wise) and when should I stop?

2. What other nutrients do I need from General Hydroponics other then FloraBloom and FloraMicro?

3. Several people say that Lucas's Formula is only for flowering, so what else would I need for Vegging?

~Basically~
I need a complete Beginning to End, Chart, Guide, Regiment, that I can follow with great success with DWC.

Thanks for reading guys, Please get back to me... Pretty much the only thing holding me back from this grow is,
learning how to mix solutions with PH UP and DOWN - per gallon of water, and A to B instructions with GH Nutrients.

P.S.
Please take your time when explaining fully detailed instructions, because I need Expert Advice. Please! = )

wats up dood! nice set up u got going right now!

well im fuzzybuds, i have been veging a thaixskunk fer about 2 months now in DWC with no big issues OTHER than DAMN fox farms, lol. switching tho.

BUT im prettys ure that in DWC ur girl will need nutes all the way throo to flush fer ur harvest, since there is no soil to hold nutes in.

to be honest all u really need in veg is god GROW & mayb A MICRO, of sum sort, im not gunaa say any names tho, BUT DONT USE fox farms is all i can say! lol.

i didnt really read throo the thread all the way, but r u doin seeds or clones? and r they in the water yet?? actually wats up with a run down??

Sup man.

First off, straight from seeds.
Strain: Blue Mystic from Nirvana.

I have soaked the cubes and pebbles in non-ph non-nutrient water.

400w HPS/MH Conversion From HTG.

And I was thinking of letting them veg for 30-50 days, then place them into Flowering... as far as growing techs.
I'm using DIY 5 Gallon Homemade Bubble buckets for flowering and a Basic DWC kit for Vegging from Stealth Hydroponics.
The plant's are just going to grow straight up. No, Training, SCROG, SOG, Etc...

If I'm wrong on the Vegging time, I wouldn't mind opinions on Vegging and even Flowering? Thanks! = )

BUMP! Please Read Above! ^
wait untill 3-4 node to start using nutes, as far as the feeding schedule you gotta go the nute's website and look. as far as phup/down I personally would have to say its all based on your res size and starting ph. EXAMPLE 6gal res, I use 5ml (for 6gal)if the test shows dark green in color. its all about adjusting it in small increments and rechecking it in 12 hr. Kinda a trail and error.
:peace:

*nods* So don't start nutes until 3-4 node.

I guess I'm just going to go dirt, Because no one's telling me what brand of nutes to use and what kind is the best?

The DWC Rez from Stealth Hydroponics is exactly 4 gallons, AGAIN only using this for vegging, then transplanting to individual 5 gallon bubble buckets.

So if the REZ is 5 Gallons instead of 6 gallons, I would use 4ML ??

4ML of what? Mixed solution?

But if someone does decide to explain in detail, I'll be listening. I'm really shooting for General Hydroponics Nutrients.

Please have Patients, I'm a Noob like you were at one point, just trying to learn and get this as precise as I can so I don't screw up, or have a minimal amount of problems....:mrgreen:

Once I get information on the nute's I will go to GH.com and read up on the schedule.
