Hello
I soaked a pe seeds it germed and is planted in ffhf soil
Plan on taking 4 clones and doing 4. 5 gallon rdwc buckets
Il get some pics up when it sprouts
Oh yeah I chose the pe cause I heard it can handle higher temps and its good bud

Doc. if I may make an suggestion on your 1" plumbing, go to 2" you wont regret it. I used 1" and as the roots took over the system it slowed the water flow down considerably.

I was going to say something about that actually, but chickened out and hoped the 1" grommets were for pump output line only..

My current system uses 3/4" tubing. I wasn't sure the root cages that attach to the bulkheads would keep the roots out so I covered them in open cell foam. I've been running synthetics with bennie tea and the filters haven't clogged yet, 2nd week into flower.

im grown PE in DWC buckets and on a table. They love ebb and flow. i dont think they produce as much as the average seed but holy cow farts is it tasty. I have fruity cronic juice too and the PE just out flavors it by far.
