Hey all, I just bought a 3' x 4' x 6' Propagation Tent & since I don't have a mother plant yet to keep in it I was planning to do a 1-Plant (Auto) in a 5 gallon DWC Bucket in it for now. I've never done DWC or any other method of Hydro. All 6 of my past grows were in soil or coco. I just finished building a grow room that I'll be running 3 XL 6.6 gallon Auto Pots in. Never used those yet either. Planning to start this grow around the 1st week of June so prepping for it now while waiting to harvest my current grow. So any info on DWC would sure help.
So far I have 2- 5 gallon Black Buckets (1 to grow & 1 to switch out nutes with), 1- net pot (opening is almost as wide as the 5 gal. bucket) (should I use a smaller size net pot?), a bag of Hydrotron Stones, a 5" x 1" Aquarium Air Stone (Rated @ 1000 cc/min), an Aquarium Air Pump (Rated 1000 cc/min.) & 10' Tubing. Is this all I need ?
Not sure how you start seeds when growing this way as I usually just plant my seeds in soil or coco. Kind of hard to do that in a basket of rocks ...lol. So do I start them in Rock wool ? Do I put the rock wool in a solo cup or straight in the net pot ?
How does this work ? Do I need to buy anything else ?
I'll be growing 1 Auto Flower / DWC / 3' x 3' x 6' grow area / 2000 watt LED's / 4" fan & filter / As much LST as possible.
