    6k Bubbleponic Room, and 8k 12bucket 13gal Under Current Room

    nice, i found em, gonna work these fittings and the 2 inch size into my design, the totes are pretty cost effective and I will probably go that route. Do you just insert the 2 inch pvc into the fitting without any glue or anything? Also what kind of pump are you using for your flow?

    Materials for Recirculating DWC

    I'd like to rebuild my hydro dwc system and use rigid pvc only. Does anyone have experience plumbing pvc into buckets? Are there thicker, square buckets that exist with square baskets for dwc? I've always used round ones with the fittings and tubing from a grow show. Any info is appreciated.
