Well ive been wanting to do a bubblebucket grow since i started growing my own,ive finally got round to it.I made my own buckets out of my 20l resies i used for my drip system.
I didnt have a net pot so i decided to use one of my 3l airpots with the orange base half way up and i used coco/perlite as my medium.I hand watered for 2 weeks to establish the roots before putting her to the bucket.She took to it well and has grown substantially in the last 3 days when roots hit the juice.

Top pic is from sunday the 10th july.
Ive got 2 air pumps,one is 20l/m the other is 10l/m.Im only using 10l/m at the minute delivered to a 7"x2" cylindrical airstone.Ive ordered a couple of Red Frog 5" diffusers,theyre supposed to be good at what they do.Lots of gentle bubbles.
Im using GH flora 3part and AN supplements.She seems to like about 450ppm and the ph will remain stable or go up 0.1.So far so good,i think my RO water is a big help there as i dont think i could have done this using my tap water.
Forgot to mention shes an Ogre auto and i have never named a plant before but as shes my first Bubblebucket grow and i hope to be special im going to call her "SHREK".
Very fitting for an Ogre i thought.

Her buds are hardening up and less sticky now so im hoping another week should see her through.I stopped looking for amber triches on autos many moons ago,mostly milky does me.
I must thank
@Wile e Peyote and
@sanguine for doing their bubblebucket grows as it reminded me i needed to get my arse into gear and get my buckets made and into operation.Also the little tips and methods they have dropped along the way.Fair Play to you both for getting me motivated,thanks dudes.
