**UPDATE**

I believe I'm 99% sure I'll be buying two of these setups tomorrow. Each, for a 4.5' x 4.5' tent.

What's cool is, my hydro store is running a promo till May 2nd that for each certain amount of dollars you spend, you get a raffle ticket. In the raffle is lots of really cool stuff! Lights, $500 gift card, loads of stuff. I'm very happy to be needing to purchase right now and also have a good chance at winning some stuff!

there are so many "gallon" measurements, how many liters is the gallon that you refer to?

it looks very nice! it feeds the pots like a flood and drain right?

Looks like a good, complete outfit. But I know nothing at all about water farming. Seems a bit expensive to me though ($500).

 

[WeedHopper]

Sorry Zem i only seen the 2 gallon pots. Me likey 5 gallon,,please,, and thank you. Lol

 

[zem]

WH yeah but what i asking is about the gallon conversion to liters, 5 gallons thats 19 liters, seems too big more than any indoor plant would need. i was wondering if you mean another "gallon measurements because there are several "1 gallon" units each measures different according to country

Thanks Next, I'm going to work on ordering them today. $900 just in the systems! WOO, crazy!

At first I thought so too, but this is the same size PJ uses with LED's...and he does a pretty good job lol. I'm using Myko's as well, so I'll have a very healthy and strong root system. I've grown monsters in 3gals before, so this will work excellent. I'm not trying to grow monsters with these, I'm trying to grow many "strong ones" 12 sites, in the 4.5'x4.5' space, those plants will not need to be very big :aok:

Yep! Also, there's a concave design on the bottom of these pots, so that there's no standing water like there is with, say, the Titan Flo-N-Gro system. Very excited here Zem!

Looks like a good, complete outfit. But I know nothing at all about water farming. Seems a bit expensive to me though ($500).

The cost is mostly in the control bucket and 55gal drum + pumps. I was going to buy things separate and build the system myself...BUT IT COSTS MORE hahaha crazy!!

Sorry Zem i only seen the 2 gallon pots. Me likey 5 gallon,,please,, and thank you. Lol

Yeah, at first I was tentative, but after you see what some other members are doing with these types of systems, that thought gets right out of your head. BUT.. Titan has a system that uses 4gals...I just prefer the Hydrofarm system for a few various reasons.

Lots of people do DWC in 5gals...and I considered 5gal too small!!! hahha I mean, I'm in 18gal's right now :rofl:


I've not slept all night.. went to bed late, and woke up thinking of this first thing this morning. Can you say "excited"? I'm not even doing the change over right off, but I'm excited knowing what's about to be!

 

[WeedHopper]

Il be watchen,,very cool.

[zem]

jeez i think i will have to veg the plant for a year if i used 18 gallons... you use 18 gallons per plant? thats major overkill lol

 

[Dr. Green Fang]

Hah, have you even LOOKED at the journal zem? :rofl: hah.. just messin

Yo Dr,

What's so awesome about the control bucket? I read the specs, it says auto shut off, and led light if there are leaks..

In simple terms, what exactly does it do?

**edit, I suppose it does everything doesn't it.. water cycles, timer.. it just needs a built in 3-way meter **

 

[Dr. Green Fang]

It pulls solution from the 55gal drum, into the 12(or more) sites whenever the timer tells it. When timer goes off, it pumps the solution out of 12 sites and out of control bucket, back into 55gal. I then, ph / add back / drain etc ONLY using the 55 gal. Freaking amazing!!

Leaving right now to go spend about $1,100. Wish me luck all! :aok:

Goodluck!

I think cubby runs a system he built like this.

It's a good rig doc, I have seen trees in aero before so you and me both know the size of the container matters little in hydro. 2 gal is the perfect size for what your trying to accomplish. Green mojo, I'm jealous, want a "CAP & EBB like" system myself
