Hello readers, like the title says, I've been lurking around here for quite sometime, currently on my 5th week of bloom on my very first grow, and id like to thank the whole icmag community for posting up such great and useful information as well as comments to others who have had the same problems I've had, sparing the repetitive questions on what I should doabout my crops. Im currently trapped in a top drip feed system that gave me a whole mess of problems, long story short, I've made quite a discovery in the world of rdwc and am planning on investing into building a set up on my next run with 5 gallon buckets connected to a 20-25 gallon's reservoir buffer zone. I have quite a few questions in regards to the proper flow of nutrients in it as well as nutrients in general for it though so here I go.
1. I plan on making it a 12 site (3 buckets X 4 buckets), the undercurrent flowing out the left and right row and returning in the center row back into res. The reservoir will be facing the side with 3 rows. Will it affect the nutrient uptake as it flows through all the buckets, especially towards the last center row?
2. What would be the best nutrients to run in a system like this? My heart wants to follow the advanced nutrients line, but I've heard great things from dutchmaster. I originally was going to follow the gh 3 part highgrade formula, but second guessed it after hearing from other forums that the yield isn't as satisfying. Others I've heard as" great" for rdwc up were canna and H&G. I know its an opinion, but hearing ideas of what benefits each company can provide to my babies will help me find something I can hope to make my own and customize with experience in the near future.
any response is welcome good or bad. Im a noob.
ps: my first and current run is bubblegum, aliendog, and sour bubble following the botanicare pro series, I've decided Its not my kind of thing.
Wish me luck, I might start a journal if I can get my hands on a camera and laptop/computer
