Greetings Everyone,

I have been reading threads on RIU for the past couple of months and finally decided to start growing indoors. I have one outdoor grow under my belt. I am growing vegetables too because i still live with my parents and hopefully they won't recognize the herb. As i said, i am new to this and open to any and all advice anyone has to offer. I will try and post pictures of my set up as soon as i figure out how to.

Everything is looking good. I still need to figure out how to lower the stream to the net pots.

I got the stream down to a drip, pH is stable so everything is looking good today.

Not much to say. The babies are progressing incredibly quick, I'm loving the bubbleponics!
