Just another little update. For one I picked up a trust worthy partner. Someone who knows I grow and has been a round for a long while. He wants to learn to grow aswell. So I figured I would end up building my DWC system later and run 6 hempy buckets so he can get the hang of things. This...

Personally I would run feed lines to each bucket. So that way they are all receiving from the res. Or I wouldn't worry about feed lines and use the pump to pull threw the buckets from the rez. That is what I would do if I was reading your post correctly. For the amount of plants I like to...

I like the first system you posted. Clean and easy. Plus looks like it would be cheaper to uild because of the PVC not being there and they are using what looks like vinyl hose. I like this system. PLus it not being PVC alows you to move the buckets a little here and there if you need...

I would have to think that the roots hitting the bottom of the pot to cause flowering would have to be wrong. I mean in the wild they would virtually never flower unless they find a rock bed or some other hard substrate they couldn't pass threw. Could you imagine 100' plant. Lol. Just...

Hey guys. Dont know if some of you have seen a few of my other posts or not. But I completely forgot about Hempy Buckets. I was gong to do RDWC 8 plant setups. until I found a hempy thread and I was like OMG. lol Here I am worried about funds to fund my new grow room and completely...

I would personally go with the 6" with scrubber. Then get a controller if needed. This way you can control the fan speed and also the flow threw the scrubber. Will also allow you to upgrade later to a larger bulb and be able to still control your air flow. Plus usually the 6" kits have a...

I am just going to use buckets for each plant. So they have there own space. I did contemplate using totes. But like I said I wanted each plant to have there own space. I really dont want to use airstones. There are many people who have problems with them. Or there pump stops working...

I like that setup man look nice. BUt what are the pros and cons of something like that? The way I am thinkin that the powerhead in the main res would be good for mixing nutes and also aeration. and prolly would be cheaper to use aswell. As the powerheads only run around 20 bucks.

Also for this grow I decided to go with the dual 600s. As the area I will be lighting will be 8 plants in a 4x8 area. So each light will be over 4 plants and give me roughly around 178,000 lumens spread a cross the room. Can not wait to get this set up and running. Like I said be fore...

This is awesome. That's exactly what I need. Oh and they sell power heads at walmart for $21. Cheap and I think will do the trick. Thanks man. EDIT*** And I went back threw and read the other posts. I see that this was brought up before. Sorry pretty sure I over looked that. Thanks...

A little update. Got some of the vinyl up around half of the room where the plants will be sitting. Room lit up once that was up. Still have to go back threw and get rid of all the wrinkles. But went up nice and easy. Sent from my LG-P769 using Rollitup mobile app

Alright. This may be an alternative to what I have planned if I run into issues. It would allow for a larger amp consumption on my part that is for sure. Thanks man Sent from my LG-P769 using Rollitup mobile app

I like your option and it matters. To me anyways. That is what I want to use is an inline pump. I do not want the pumps in the res what so ever. Simple because of what you said. Heat. Cooler the better. The cooler the water the more DO it can hold. Which I would assume is essential in...

I checkout out there site. Massively over priced for sure. $1,800 for almost the same system I am gonna build. Different parts of course but that makes me almost want to expand my business and build a few system to sell online. I have an extensive background in commercial construction and...

I think what he means. If you are using panda film or mylar or something thin for the grow tent. You could use a paper stapler and cardboard. goes threw and folds around the ends. You may need to get a larger stapler. depending on how far in the door material you need to go. But the...

If you have funds to spend buy the mylar. Its more of a pain but you do reflect a little more light then with flat white paint. However. It will also depend on the size room you are working with. Larger rooms or even medium sized rooms I would really go with flat white pain. Anything...

Thanks for the replies guys. They are greatly appreciated. This is what I have drawn up. I still may need airstones unless I get another pump to flow to each bucket for a sort of water fall top top transfer to bucket. I was thinking of using 1/2 ID or 3/4" ID hose for this with a smaller...

Thank guys that is what I was thinking. I am going to finish drawing it up and then get on way to getting prices. and then I guess build. It was going to be 9 buckets total. well 8 buckets and a 10 gallon tote. so there is extra room if needed. Thanks again. I will post what I get...

I was thinking I needed a little bigger pump then the 165 or 185. I will be running 8 total buckets. But I think I figured it out. I seen the Eco 633 that is 594 GPH. I talked to a guy I know about these pumps and I didn't realize that the front cage is removable and can be built to do a...

I will have to look into those. Thanks man. This was my plan. I didn't want to use the air stones. Been finding a load of people not using them and only using the waterfall effect. I love the idea. Want to give her a try. What could it hurt if all else fails its easy to add a few air...
