i just had a quick look on there and the first thing he said was let the roots go into the rez. the first thing i got was root control mats to stop that. must have been the wrong thing to do lol

yeh man. more space for roots means bigger plants i would reckon. defo need the res tap on there to do your water changes. its a head ache having pull the plants out and not very practical.

i was thinking of using the pump to fill a bucket up and just rinse clean water through. i know thats harder work but im no good at modifying things, id have water every where.

i wanted to make a scrog screen thats attached to each pot just incase i need to take them out. that way i can veg up 4 at a time im my 1.2x1.2m tent and put them in my 2.4x1.2 tent so that im chopping down every 4-5 weeks instead of doing it all in one go. but ive been looking into the DWC so i might just get some of those oxy pots after ive sussed these wilmas out

yeah i done cheese last year,3 plants, vegged them for 6weeks,(topped them 3weeks into veg),bloomed 11weeks.biobizz nutes and 400w hps light.had lots of yellow leaves but i just removed them as i was told it was normal,got 9oz of great weed,make sure you have a good filter as they really stink once buds start to grow.

I got root matting this run, put a fair bit of it in the bottom of the pots and up the side hoping to stop the roots goin in the res, couple week veg and couple of days in flower and their already making there way to the res. was thinking that if I stopped them hitting the res they maybe wouldn't get as bushy as they do in the wilma systems but no luck this time lol

Well if you can't move the light you can't move the light. Could you not lower the pots, looks like they are on top of other pots. How much space have you got inbetween at the moment? It's going to be strain dependant on how muich space you need. Some strains stretch a lot, some strains have small colas, some huge.....looks like the start og good things though.

i only put the 1 peice at the bottom of each pot, ill have roots through soon then lol. that thread i had a look at, the bloke turned his wilma into a big DWC system with shit loads of air stones and even a little wave machine. ive ony got a tiny air stone in the bottom of mine. im scared of getting root rot and fucking them all up. i might fill in most of the holes in the bottom of the pot next time if my roots get through

@del i just had a look at you utube vid, they're looking good mate fair play :-D i bet their a pain in the arse to water tho aint they? lol

so i try and be discreet with items that get delivered to my work. nothing with 'HYDRO HOBBY' or the like written on it. I ordered some new houseplants for the office and they arrived in a box like this:IMAG0218_BURST002.jpg

they had no stealth shipping option lol.
