out of curiousity i smelled my bottle of southern ag last nite.
mine smells kinda like spent grain from homebrewing but not overwhelming at all.

i built my rdwc with some 3/4 pvc end caps( the semi round kind, drilled about 10 holes of really small holes) kinda like a kitchen faucet sprayer

that sprayed into 27 gal totes.. a waterfall of any kind is way better than any air stone/air pump

Is this true? I'm getting ready to set up my 4 site again and I was good and blazed laying in my carport where the room is and was enjoying the pump hum. I wouldn't mind getting rid of it my only concern is what happens if I get roots clogging and had to turn recirc pump off? They'd be toast in hours. Also i just bought like 200 foot of airline and I'd have to come up with a diy to use it all.

are you asking if waterfall better than airstone? if so, not just yes, but hell yes. think about all the fountains you see in cities or golf courses etc they all spray water in the air to aerate, not just to make it look fancy.

my sprayers were in the middle of a 27 gal yellow/blk tote and sprayed from the top, 2 netpots per. so basically a 4 site.
