I'm new to this forum and have a few questions regarding a grow I'm planning to start within a few days. Sorry if my english is a bit off when it comes to the terms, but I'm doing my best. I live in Europe.
I've been growing in soil before, so I'm not a complete newbie, even that it was for just under a year.
Now I'm planning to start a quite large grow in hydro. I'm envisioning a vertical grow in pvc-pipes, or some other suitable material. I've seen a video on youtube DIY Indoor Vertical Hydroponics System - The HydroVert 80 Spot System Build - YouTube
I'm thinking of a similar system, just that I want the pipe to be continuus, with bends to make it go back and forwards from top to end if you can understand what I mean.
But I wonder what would be a suitable diameter for the pipe. I'm going to grow Jack Herer, White widow and some other medium sized plants.
I can imagine that the pipe in the veg room would be a bit larger in diameter than the pipe in the bloom room..
I will move the clones to the bloom room as soon as they have set roots.
So, what would be a suitable diameter for the pipes in both rooms?
I also wonder what would be a suitable distance between the holes in the pipe for the net pots, and how large the holes should be.
I would really appreciate some informed answers to these questions as I will start the grow within a week or so. Any info on this from people with personal experience on this would be great, I would also welcome links to resources on the subject.
