And if you'd payed attention I didn't tell anyone to Ditch Dwc. In not going to repeat myself. Learn to read homeboy .

I'll give whatever advice I want dude.

Very helpful and on topic thanks supersucker1

Welcome to hell bro. Lol Dwc can be super simple or your worst nightmare. Guess which one you got? Lol Your going To have a serious battle with that slime. Heisenberg tea cures it, sure. But the second you slip up and relax and miss a day of being all over it it will come back. And keep...

If you want to save then put them in dirt or soilless mix. Dwc can be tricky. It can be the easiest or the worst. I grew trees in Dwc last winter and put almost no effort into it. Just kept topping off my res and off they went. I have not been able to duplicate those results since!! I've dealt...

Or at least fewer Problems lol. Dwc has been a nightmare. Got some great crops with it but I'd lose 2 out of 3 crops! Not worth it. Tea only goes so far apparently. Especially once the temps start to go up. Then it's just fucking impossible .

Me and a buddy run almost identical systems. The only dif is he uses tap water, and pays way less attention to his grow. And he gets better results with less problems. Think I should dump the ro water? I'm in LA and the water is around 200 ppm. I'm also switching from Dwc to readygro aeration...

Running a ton of clones can a pain too. 9 isn't shit but a lot of peeps rock like 4 plants per sqft! That adds up. That's 64? Clones per light. But then again there are many ways to go about a sog.

Also wondering where the coco thread is? Or if this thread should be in hydro?

Another great thing about this mix: When using rockwool cubes to clone, in Dwc the cubes stay drenched and that causes problems, but with the aeration mix, it actually pulls water from The cubes to make it only as wet as the soilless readygro mix. Not sure I'd that's been a prob for anyone...

What's up everybody. I'm getting myself out of a year long Dwc nightmare. I'm done constantly battling micro organisms that love to munch on roots. Yes I did the Heisenberg tea. It did help me rid my plants of root slime, but only during the winter. Once air temps went up the tea wouldn't...

The pump sinew. The timer works properly everything works properly. It's just getting air locked somehow.

I did. It's not the pump. The pump works. The timer works. It's just getting air locked for some reason. Can't figure out why

The pump can only go one place. In the bottom of the controller bucket

So my fill pump works without a hitch. Timer comes on, pump fills buckets. But when the timer turns off and the buckets should be emptying back to the res, the pump gets air locked. 1 out of maybe 6 times the pump Will retune like its supposed to, but the other 5 times ill go check the...
