Well, I went and got a couple buckets, a big airstone and net pots. I got 4 gal buckets. Which would you recommend for net pots, 3" or 3.75"? The buckets are also menards green, should I tape over them with duct tape?
Either or for the net pots.

Yea, you can tape them. I used foil tape to be a wise ass lol, but duct tape will be fine.

Ohohoho... you'll never go back lol.

Would you mind giving me a quick rundown on how to get a seed started in my setup? I got the ph meter and tds meter. My seed is sprouted in a paper towel and I was going to fill my net pot with coco to get it started instead or hydroton. I do have some rockwool cubes if I must use them and rapid rooters as well. Not sure how I should do this

Just fill the net cup with coco and plant like normal. Set your bucket up so the bubbles soak the underneath of the lid, no need for a roaring boil. The coco will keep a constant runoff so there will be plenty of air.

In a few days, you'll have roots pop the cup.

Way I went was cup of water and seed in 24 hr . Wet paper towel til I seen a root going . In a rw to a humidity fixture (rotisserie chicken container ) for a strong sprout. In net cup with water and fgg phd . Better ways probably. Just me .

He liked the purple pheno I think. There's a real leafy one too, if I remember right.

Didn't know you did competitions. That's pretty sweet. Congregation of growers flaunting their shit... sounds like my kind of party lol.

How exactly does one go about refilling the res? Do you guys usually just lift the top off with the plant and check your ph and tds and adjust accordingly? Or do you have some kind of flap you constructed on the top?

I pop my lid, dip a cup in and check. I have lines inside the bucket so I know where to fill to, so I just top off to there with fresh water. I don't add until ppm bottoms out. Then you have 2 routes you can take.

You can dump your res and start a new one, or you can run the same res the whole way through. If you run the whole way through, just make a tally sheet so you can keep track of what's waste.
