I did three grows with NO meters and using the pre-packaged nutes.

& ive started clones in soil . if i had to could i rinse soil from roots&start in bubbleponic???
Yes, but rinse every grain of soil off.

or should i start new ones in cubes[rockwool]

Yes, you can easily start seeds in it.
was planning next grow in dirt & buying 315wcfl.b/p combo from s.h. well finances being what they are i'll be making my b/p &buying their 29dollar pkg nutes my house water tests at ph.7.o & ppm of 70 they say their nutes are designed to work with most water i let my tap water stand 48hr. in kiddie pool to evap chlorine i have limited access to ppm. meter& figured i could use ph. strips to start my woter is consistantly the same [4 random tests in 5 mos.] have most materials needed to build bubbleponic would like to get started one grow ahead of time i think i read somewhere that roseman did a b/p grow without a ppm. meter any input appreciated....thankskiss-ass

Read my Tutorial and follow along with me and my grow .

Roseman's DIY Bubbleponics-DWC Tutorial
 
rinse the soil with room temp water, too hot or cold ain't soo good

when you switch to another type of nute. and you will. get a pump bag, those little 1/4 inch hoses that go to each root cup love to get clogged. the pump bag helps.
 
hey stonedar&roseman a bbbbiggg thanks for your replies just got back from running around[scrounging materials] i've got a peice of nylon windowscreen to put around the pump .thats a good idea for sure i have everything but the pond pump &air stone the tote & drip system head i have .also i need the baskets &rock stuff i'm pretty handy at fabricating things i'm wanting to get this project going maybe this evening i'll get started thanks....
 
need 6 baskets & the pond pump got pretty much all the rest trying to keep it simple gonna order the 29 dollar nutes[stealth hydro brand] seems to be best choice for my resources & skill level at this timei'm sure i'll be asking more questions& i'll re-read your diy. stuff as well as first time b/p grower threads to see if some of ?s. might already be answered thanks h.h.
 
Hey there, what did you decide for your baskets? i found some similar sized rubbermaid Tote away's and drilled out the bottoms of them. i like the idea on the screen over the end of the feeder tube. i'm also going with the 29 dollar nutes, after reading roseman's tutorial it seemed like a pretty good choice for my level and budget. good luck!
