hey guys im going to attempt my own dwc system. i am going to base my system on the oxy pot.
i know where to get everything else from exept one thing this water leveller thingy mah bob. its like a little hole at the botton of the bucket that lets water travel out and then up in the leveler heres a picture of it below. i cant find this anywhere does anyone know where i could get it from?
+ it needs to be a store in the uk

here just d what i did i have no camera otherwise i would just put pics anyway
go to your newest walmart if you have one in the uk if not any hardware or any place that sells gray storage totes the squeare ones with a lid of course lol
then head down to a pet store or something almost absoulutely similar and pick up a 15-20 gallon air pump or whatever no les than 10 gallon though get a black hose
and a couple air duffusers uterliy known as amitters or airstones at petsmart i found a good 12" one for about 4 dollars about 12 or 13 GBP and then your just about set now all you need are sproutlings completly sprouted with its first leaves showing and pick up some rockwool and from here a 10 gallon tote will do as i mentioned earlier and now go home distled water or normal will do now if your tote has a 1/8" hole fit the tube ect ect attach diffuser as i mentioned earlier black cord gray tote to prevent root rot and any other root diesise now your ready add excatly 10 or 9 3/4 gallons if your plants are a litttle ways in and they are starting to turn yellow on their tips around their first leaves if you dont have nuets pick up miracle gro at a hardware store make sure its says water soulble on the front above brand name
and put 1/8 power wich is the small scoop that the spoon has one or two depending on how far in you are and after about a month or so whenever they start to get yellow at the tips and fold downwards change the water keep the plants in a area dont ADD NUTRIENTS NO MATTER WHAT EVERY WATER only when deprived a little bit of nuets and this is how i have it set up but if they are new sproutlings just keep them in fresh water for about a month until nuet melnoutrision kicks in and repeat the proccess untill you are at about one big scoop of the miracle gro all purpose powder which is full stregnth to every 3 to 4 gallons and from their they should grow about a inch or 2 a day if this proccess is done right dont worry about if the roots turn a light or kinda medium blue it just shows you water level and that they are getting the nuets and I CANT STRESS ENOUGH THAT YOU CLEAN IT EVERY TIME YOU NEED TO ADD NUETS OTHERWISE it may get salt build up or something very similar if your have lights already then you should be fine but i would reccomend 100W equivalent CFLs
hope this all helps
your good,
bottanist freind brandon
and trust me its easier than DWC and aloot easier and cheaper to run
READ WHOLE THING IT MAY LOOK LONG AS HELL BUT ITS MORE SIMPLE IF YOU CAN THROW A SEED OUTSIDE IN DIRT YOU CAN DO THIS IT JUST TAKE TIME AND EFFORT
