+rep & 'Like'd - though I think there might be an easier way to get the same end result, but if you were using what you already had on-hand - then Way To Go! (or Grow! :D)
Great job with the pics & detailed explanation!
Thanks for sharing!

What would be an easier way to do this ?

*lol* I wonder what too hehehe. I am still going to do something like this slightly larger pretty soon as I want to have 4 minidro type setups in there at once but all the normal hempy buckets are too large or too tall.
 
Hi Scott :)

One question about this setup, with the drainage holes a third of the way up, do you get a build up of water at the bottom of the can, and, if so, wouldn't the roots at the bottom be drowning ?


Cheers pal,

Looking good mate, I did something very similar a couple of years back.

I've also been looking into doing this on a larger scale. I'm thinking a DIY ebb and flow system like they have on the link below.

If you go to the last page on the list it has a downloadable PDF of the full thing. Very easy to follow.
 
wow thats a nice simple set up. and alot of yield for such a small containter no ?

I was thinking of buying a aquarium 1 gallon with a air stone and air pump. Just duct tape the out side leave a small spot exposed to check the level of water from time to time. Put a pot with some media in it and just dwc in a 1 gallon tank... still thinking about it not sure if it will work I've never grown before
 
That's going to be my next go at hydro!
Bubbleponics and the DWC Watrefarm were not my friends.

I think the Ebb and Flow system and i will be able to be best buds!!
:peace:
