Beautiful setup...Can't wait to see it in action...
Hey thanks for stopping in guys!
bendo-I am pretty psyched as well
Simple green-I appreciate the kind words, thanks
Everything is going well, the orginal 9 have really taken off, they really would thrive with a bump on the nutes, but waiting for everyone else to catch up. Been a pain starting out with no mom and filling her up with clones, but last batch will be rooted soon and she will be full. As soon as there is somthing to update on I will post some pics. I will update often once its rolling along, for everyone to enjoy.

Sorry for being impatient but i wanna see some new pics!
Maybe I can do that for you. I have 3 stages of plants and any day 4, never had a run in RDWC where everyone is a week or 2 apart. Some are doing very well but like I said before they would just explode if I raised the nutrient level. Waiting for everyone to get their feet first.
Hey guys have an update for you. Nothing exciting yet, but everything is coming around. Most of the pics are of the orginal 9 plants, since really they are the only ones who have made substantial progress. Sorry they are a bit fuzzy, but last time I onyl had a 400 MH light in there, and tonight I had to shut down 4k hps just for you 
and bring in a lamp. Also these were not taken with my digitial so, bare with me but here you go. 14 days since last update, always takes about a week just for roots to come out of the netpot and find the bottom of the buckets, so nothing to serious but they are growing fast now. For any DWC noobies out there, these have been on 300ppm @ .5 conversion their whole life. I usually go 2-3 weeks on the first nutrients, simply because normally I am not in that big of a rush to veg. After these photos we had a nice bondage session and broke some necks on the big girls to bush em out and hold them back.
Edit:
Water temp has been a little high, due to the room temp being a little high. It is 82F all day in there, which is higher then I am used to. My water level has reached 77F at the end of a 18 hour cycle, I will not tolerate that. Most likly because the air pumps are pumpin 82F air in the buckets, the water run for recirculation is longer making my chiller work alot harder as well. On Thursday I will put in my 24 1/2" valves, one on each bucket. That way I will be getting good even circulation on the 1/2" feedlines, by individually tweeking each bucket and row. Once that is done, I can replace the 633gph pump with my 1056gph pump and this should speed recirculation up.
Tomorrow I am off to purchase a 8" inline fan. I am going to replace the 6" inline near the filter with this. I will then place the 6" booster fan in between lights 2 and 3. Where the 6" booster used to be is where I will place the 6" inline. Also I will be getting rid of 2-4 turns in the ducting to increase effciency. I will be throwing in another 4" inline intake to help get some cooler air in there. After this round I will upgrading intake to 2 6" inlines. This should give me a good drop in temps.
I see AC and co2 in my near future, maybe by srping.

Looking good man.. cant wait to see what they turn out to be....
Should turn out to be bushs , at least those 9 will be getting a good amount of veg time, rest will be smallest I ever flowered. Normally when I flip these buckets you already cannot see the floor everyone is touching, maybe 14-18 inchs high

Yea first runs always suck... im gonna have my first run too... it sucks but its the name of the game....
Yup working any kinks out for sure, you just have to do it, I wont accept anything less.
Exhaust and intake we're upgraded today.
exhaust= Carbon Filter to 8" inline 740cfm to 2 1k lights to 6" booster fan to 2 1k Lights to 6" inline 440cfm
intake= 2 x 170 cfm inline 4" fans (One feeds the air ducting in between the rows of plants and the other is in the air for right now pulling fresh air in, both have external air source)
Room is hanging at about 78-80, came down from 82-84. I added 50% back to my rez today so the water should take longer to heat up and the chiller has not went over 71. Also added aquashield for safety measures.
Total fans lol :
8'inline
6"inline
4"inline x 2
2 wall mount fans 18"
Stand fan 18"
=7
All buckets have a plant now, please strap on your safety harness, we are rolling out!

lol i new you'd be back soon PK, sorry to here the bad news but can understand the security issue. would have done the same.
does that mean your legal? lmao lucky git lol : ) .....
that would never happen here too many brainwashed R-tards running the government.
anyway im cool
still running my 18 c02 drip system .
got 14 sharksbreath in 7 weeks of flowering right now but a bit pissed off with the phenotype. quad-rooopalled in size when i hit 12/12... very leafy ... couple of ok ones in there hiding .
so i thought id try something different this time and got some BLZ bud from seedism ... and have germinated 3 for mums .... unfortunately i have already cut and began rooting 23 sharksbreath. will flower them after 2 weeks veg ,instead of the last lot when they were 12 inches. so hopefully there will be smaller .
so the BLZ bud will be in opperation time after next....
other than all that its all fine i think ,except when i bought 5 litres of canna boost at £250 ($413) a bottle then lost it for a while ... found it again thank *@%* but was a scarey time.

George! Good to see you around man! Was wondering when you might pop in. Sharksbreath huh? What is that a cross of? For some reason I am not surprised you have something named after a shark Yes I am legal now, its insane man never would have guessed it to happen here. I have done that to, take cuts to early and end up not wanting to run that pheno ever again, stuuuupid hashplant. Sounds like those have a healthy stretch, never had anything go 4x on me. Maybe try them outside, muhahaha Good to see you George and it is Great to be back! Hope to see more of you.
Edit: Checked temps today at the end of the 18 hour cycle. Everything has dropped, but I think I am just going to go grab a 13kbtu AC unit with dual hose exhaust/intake and throw her in there and let her do the dictating, just to be safe. Unit will pay for itself anyways, and another toy in my toybox is not a bad thing.
