NWestCoast - Hey thanks man. Lol, ya gotta love the dePOT lol... on sale for 2.88/ea hehe..
Thanks Hack...I too have been running DWC for several years. Thanks for the tips. I run a significant amount of air, IMO to the buckets. But I do agree, more D.O. = more growth = bigger yields. I am currently looking into a few of those BIG BOY air pumps lol...with like an 8 way gang valve. As far as light penetration, I have had no problems using these orange buckets, however completely lightproofing them might lower bucket temps 1-2 degrees... not really worth the $ for me, being as how the nutes are constantly exchanged and never have a chance to warm up. But I appreciate the tips!
Nice setup!
I have been dwcing for six years and have the following thoughts.
Try running 15-20 litrs of air per minute in your buckets. Active aqua sells 110 l pumps that are monsters but actually very quiet run 6-8 buckets per pump. They really keep that water churning.
If possible cover your buckets so light doesn't get in. I used to get foil tape at home depot, now I just buy black buckets.
If you have trouble free strains in dwc with a good resoivoir it makes gardening painless. Nice work.
