looks like what i'm planning at the moment, and as far as i've read it all looks good. You might want to intall a water level indicator on the side, and you'll need some hydroton balls or something similar, but I reckon you're looking good! Where's you get all the stuff?

How low does your PH test read. I think I seen that one and it only goes down 2 6.0.

I picked up all this crap
at the following
Target-4 ruber tubs
Petco-2 dual air pumps-air rocks-air tube-water thermo-
Hydro store-pureblend pro grow & bloom- callmag- net pots-ph testing kit-ph up-ph down- hydro rocks-
TO BUILD 4 OF THESE SYSTEMS COSTS DIRT CHEAP AROUND 80$ THE ONLY EXPENSIVE THING IS THE NUTES AND THE DUAL AIRPUMPS .......
oh and the ph tester reads 5.2-8.6.......just thought i might give it a try.

You could have bought 3" net pots instead of the 5" ones. That would give you more room between plants and saved you a lot of money on Lava Rocks. Also, clean-up would have been much easier too. I've tried both and I'm sticking with the 3" pots. One 5" pot would have been large enough for the mother plant.

yhea i looked at all the local hydro stores and nobody had 3 inch pots so i guess ill order sum of the net .......i was wondering about the size of the pots ......so the roots just hang out of the bottom of the net pots submerged in the bubling nutes?........the dwc plants dont need larger pots like soil plants dwc plants can sit in a small net pot? (thats sweet)
thanks ViRedd i more then likely am gonna get the 3 inch pots and get new lids for my rubber tubs and cut new holes .....i dont mind spending a little extra its such a great hobbey for me ..........

WOW so i tried the DWC and i must say the friggin plant i grew was huge it got to be around 5 foot tall wtf... it was a clone i took myself off of a seedling i grew and the seedling i grew outdoor and it didnt even get near as tall as its daughter in the DWC....
i only veged her for 1 month but the weird thing is it has been flowering for 3 months and i think it has about 2 weeks to go thers still alot of white hair and the crystals dont look the way i want them to look ......
The DWC system is a great and very easy way to grow sum great personal smoke so get out there and give it a shot its very easy...
I WILL POST PICS IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS....
