Unfortunately my heirloom black krim plants dont fruit well in my area. I have blossom drop due to high temps. Luckily one tomato has fruited out of all my plants.
My mini garden full of foliage and no fruit lol. 2 tomatoes I planted in ground the rest are in shitty 2 gallons. There is a big ass fountain piping system under the dirt there so I'm limited in planting space.
Gonna be growing heirloom pink brandy-wines after this because they are heat tolerant.
I think I will only grow seeds from this beast of a tomato and see how they do.

Brandy-wines awesome.
Interesting experiment I've never seen tomatoes grown in dwc before. They are indoor right? and which variety are they?

No, I am growing these outside
I have a beefsteak and Black Krim, 2 others Im too stoned to remember. I will update my success/failure here.
I may bury them halfway to keep the sun off the bucket and water cooler. They were on my deck but I tore it down the other day

Thats bad ass dude i always wanted to try an outdoor DWC. What kind of nutes are you using. I was gonna throw one of my DWC buckets outside with a little cheap aqarium pump. I figured my resovoir would get way to hot were i live. Make sure you post updates! I want to see those plants in about three weeks. They should be monsters. Do you use any supplement lighting or all natural? Sorry for all the questions but ive been thinking about outdoor hydroponics for a long time now and would love to see were this experiment goes!

Im using Floranova bloom throughout. Simple Lucas formula
Just straight up sunlight for lighting. I just had some extra buckets and pump laying around and when my son showed up with the starts I just went for it. Could be an epic root rot fail..we'll see

I would definatley put white covers around the top of the hydroton or some type of plastic so nothing unwanted gets into your buckets. If i had the time i would run an outdoor RDWC and keep my main resevoir in my back work shop were it would stay at stable temps. i just installed a mini split in there for my grow room theres plenty of space to put a twenty gallon reservoir. You might have just inspired me to try something ive been wanting to do for a long time Outdoor RDWC were the main reservoir is kept inside. It sounds complicated but the way my grow room is setup it would be easy

Thanks racer! Mine might be a different type then yours. Plus I add in my own compost each year, made mostly of chicken, rabbit and tortoise dung.

I tried my hand at some romas this year for the first time unfortunately i didn't move them out till the last week of may so I'm not as far as everyone else. And i droped a tray of 8 so i had to plant one of the runts.
