yeah agree, I spent two and half months just reading and reading and surfing and surfing before I started. Of course, I got in to this and changed my mind about the method I was going to use, stealthhydro system and now buckets, but made sure I studied about nutes, temp, water, everything...even soil...keep up the studying, its like a profession...learn something new daily!
haha it is not about first place...I just like having someone to share the experience with. I agree, the buckets rock. Major difference...Yeah I am definetely going to grow something like that on the next one as well. Now I know the basics, so I am going to move on to the advanced a little. When are you going to flower?
Nice grow gr33n, I have been watching this thread AND also watching yalls race in the other thread,lol.
I got a question or two if you wouldn't mind.
On page 7, post# 61, pic#2, you have a pic of what looks like a small air distribution piece. Is that what that is ??? so you can run one strong air pump into that plastic piece and distribute air out to 4-5 diffferent buckets/places ?? I have been doing LARGE fish aquariums for many many years and have never seen one of those. Do you mind sharing where you got it ??
Also, looking at yours AND Longhorns buckets, do yall only have one plant per bucket ??? In a few of the pics, it looks like 2-3 plants in one bucket but I know it's not feasable to have that many plants in one bucket, I think it's just an illusion or the plants are THAT healthy.
Dirt,
I bought an airpump that can power 8 outlets and I also bought 4 foot flexible airstones. One of those for each bucket. I bought my pump at thebigtomato.com. Good price plus I trust these guys.
