I have some Kali Mist seedlings — about 3 weeks old — in my DWC cloner, and they've started developing some markings that I've not been able to reliably cross-reference by looking at pictures of diseased leaves. Here's one plant, first a wide shot and two tight: Here's its neighbour...

Hey, Void, I was quietly hoping you'd chime in; I've read your tutorials and I know you're a staunch supporter of One-Plant-Per-Pot. Okay, so root binding sucks; but what if it could be avoided? It would seem to me that subdividing the tub's volume would encourage root segregation, which is why...

I'm too new to hydro to understand how this is significant, and I'd love to hear a more detailed explanation of why this might be detrimental. My sense, though, is that every method comes parceled with its own inherent challenges. Not having any hydro growing experience, I chose the method that...

It would seem to me that the more water one makes available to each plant the more each plant can drink before the reservoir would need topping-off.

Mineralz, my 'tote' is 130 liters in volume. With 6 plants that's 21.6 liters or about 5.7 gallons per plant, which seems quite adequate. If I go 5-plants then each plant gets 26 liters / 6.9 gallons.

Right, but are all your plants cut from the same mother, or are they different strains? I would imagine plants grown from sister clones would be reasonably uniform in terms of maintenance. I certainly wouldn't mix strains in a single container.

Well, I'm gonna have to try it, now— I just bought a 130L storage bin (it comes with a lid). Also got a spout that I can install through a side panel for draining. And a pump (Some no-namer from an aquarium store that can supposedly move 40 liters/hour).

Lost my post. *sigh* Ok, short version: Massah, I don't have the resources for RDWC this time 'round, but I'm definitely into it for a future project. Illegal Smile, If all my root masses are independent of one another then I don't see why I can't swap plants between sites and rotate each one...

Hello, everyone, Long-ish-time reader, first-time caller. I am on the verge of having to purchase parts for my first DWC grow. I plan on six plants in a 120x120x200cm grow tent. I know that there are proponents, on these forums, of the OP3-(One-Plant-Per-Pot)-method of Deep-Water-Culture...
