Hey guys.
I have made my 1sy hydro set up.
I was wondering how big the reservoir should be?(i hope that is what you call it)
i have 2 about 11" pots hooked up calculating from the drip feeder(at the top) through the pots & back to the reservoir where the pump is.
What do you guys think is a good size?
i have also put a couple of taps in the pipe so I can use the same pump to empty the water/nutrients down the drain.(its set up in a spare bath room).
I just have to work out what medium to use & my clones will be ready from my mate in a week.
Then yahoo we are off.
I hope that made sense. I am a total armature as some of you may have worked out....
Oh yeah 1 other thing.
Doing it the way I have do you think both plants will get the same feed or will one get more that the other? I will post pics if need be.
Shine on.

For just two plants you wouldn't need a very big resevoir. TO give you a comparison I use a resevoir that is around 45 liters for 12 plants in my drip table. With only two plants if you get a big resevior you will be throwing away a lot of nutes every week. VV

Copy that.

I have a 10 liter container with a lid.
I will drill some holes & use that.

Thanks mate.
