Grow Mediums Indi's 2 fast 2 vast/ Autonight Queen Dwc grow.

Quick update.
3rd seedling is now in the rez.
Because she was new i wanted to let her have some true sunlight as i try to do with all my seedlings so she got to sit in the sun on the window sill all morning for a fresh start. ;)

I upped the voodoo <--> As always i give fresh hits next day for newbies just so everything soaks it all up and i also gave extra for the new system so bennies can get into all the hard to reach spots and spaces well before and bad bacteria can take up residence for the life of the system.

After 3 days i will add "6mls" of sensi grow to the system for a taster not only that but because it contains other things besides NPK like fulvates /humates among other things.
The way i'm calculating is simply by adding the 4 rez together I'm finding it even better because i can be more accurate to how i feel,meaning due to the mass of solution my 0.5 ML measurements are far more easier to be accurate as possible.
So 6/4 = 1.5 which is exactly what i want. this isnt such a good example but it will do.

Everything remains stable ph 5.7 < i dropped the Ph again as voodoo ups to 6.0 or trys to as bennies usually will want to float in this area.
Rdwc im finding is alot easier than a single setup and i'm wrapped with it the girls are starting to kick off already and everything's in top shape, I also whacked a proper lid on that control res to stop anything getting in until i upgrade that stupid thing shortly . ;) thank you all. :)

Hey sooo I have been having some issues with my system I haven't got the flow rate I want, but I think I have fixed it. I just have to use 2 pumps and no rez(which kinda sucks but oh well) since I am running them in line and have 15 ft between the 5 buckets the return flow is too weak at the farthest bucket, so I am having to stick a pump in the middle and T it off to the manifold, I am almost 100 percent positive this will fix it, I just have to get the damn pump fitting cause I snapped mine off and I am PISSED about it cause I think it is a special one and I don't think they sell them seperatly grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. But as soon as I have it up and running I will take pics and post em and tag you

Wait up man wait up i wanna help work on it together i had the same issues so i connected via center res and added a second feed line to the control rez . i think your pumps in the wrong place! the pump p needs to be on the return line and gravity feeds the res's the under current pipe needs to be big or have 2x pipes between rez's one high one low ;)
 
wtf how am i not subscribed here... Well i am now!

Are you doing 4 buckets under 1 600w mate?
just three for the min @Bum under the 600. i was afraid to put a forth in my tents only a 4x4 haha one plant can take that whole tent in dwc :)
