Hmmmmm what's so different about yours? I would think it's pretty straightforward.My rdwc for example i havent seen anyone make one like it (yet) .
I even got into an argument with Heisengrow about it cause he didnt belive it was rdwc lol
He and i eventually saw eye to eye after i did some splainin

Nothing really just never seen anyone set theirs up quite like mine.
Most people are into the whole undercurrent thing
I took what i liked about uc and also looked at the problems most people have...
Not enough ro. Too high of temps and most importantly GETTING the DO to the center of a large root mass.
The only way i could figure was complete circulations VERY fast so i got a full circulation in under 2 mins about 30 per hour
Plus i use water fall,flume, and air stones (as redundancy) the only thing about my set up that isnt dialed is it runs hot 75f. Which could be fixxed easily with remote res ect ect.
But it hasnt beent a problem yet for MONTHS AND MONTHS the system with the net

I ran waterfalls, mine circulated in 5 minutes, no air stones. I got good oxygenation to the roots because of the placement of my waterfalls.Nothing really just never seen anyone set theirs up quite like mine.

The higher temperature is intriguing, however. I think that would be very beneficial for energy savings and for plant metabolism.

I'm trying to get rid of as much shit that costs electricity as possible.Great minds tystik
I thought the same thing on the plant metabolism and just ran hydrogaurd to make it through the run.
This next run im going to see if i can run without it

The good thing is it helps equalize the room temperature like a thermal battery.
My res low temp is about 68 when lights go on and by the time they go off im at 75-77.
But i have not used a heater this winter really at all and im in a cold climate my room wont go below 66 unless i crank the fan controller.

Agreed
Ive had my fun with cool stuff .
But now im like why am i PAYING to grow a small amount more?
I need to do a test to see how productive the new set ups i have planned are compared to rdwc

Does anyone have any pics of their crop grown with this stuff. Thinking about making the leap from the old GH flora series.
Edit: @Cold$moke is that picture a few posts up grown with the chem-gro 420?

Nice-looking tenfull..! I agree, back in the stoned-age I did fine with Peters, then they had some crystals called Eco-grow and Eco-Bloom (2 part) and I fooled around with that and a few others and they all did well, but I am also looking into cheap dry nutes myself now. I'm considering either Jack's or maxi-crop when I run out of these last few gallons of GH Flora, but still considering them all
-good luck!

A bunch of commercial facilities in Colorado have been using it for years.
Either that is or is not a recommendation.
