Indoor Suggestions wanted on hydro setup

[CanadianBudz]

Easiest and cheapest to build is one like an Aerogarden, but use a bucket and do one plant per bucket, they should work very well

This site has some 5" aerojet systems and expansion modules, I can't find anything much larger than that unless its a DIY system.

I'd prefer a central res system as I'd like to start with about 12 plants or so. I think it would be easier to manage than a series of individual buckets.

I just found that site myself. If that's correct, I have to assume that Botanicare sells them with different size configurations, although they have no information to that effect on their web site. That's more along the lines of what I'm looking for.

There was a way to buy a autopot float valve and adding to 1mx1m tray getting a 4 pot system for the price of 1

Did you look at stinkbuddies.com yet?

 

[Muddy]

No, but just went there and took a quick look. Book marked it and will explore more later. Thanks.

No prob. That's the one I built. 28 sites for about 300 bucks including pumps and all.

Still doing hydro research in preparation for getting started on my setup sometime after Thanksgiving. Want to do some reading in the mean time, so looking for suggestions on some good hydro books. Something that covers it all from basics through advanced techniques, including deficiencies. Also good reference books, including pictures. Thanks everyone.

Here a a few random free Hydroponic e-books:

A very basic introduction to hydro- http://www.foothillhydroponics.com/booklet/booklet.pdf

A short description of some basic Hydro set-ups- http://www.ksre.ksu.edu/library/hort2/mf1169.pdf

Medical Growers Bible, Section on Hydroponics- http://www.marijuanagrowing.com/dhtml/images/lookinside/mh_ch_12.pdf

Cannabis Grow Bible, There is a decent hydro section in there- https://www.dmt-nexus.me/Files/Books/General/Cannabis Grow Bible.pdf

These are two books I would look into:
http://www.amazon.com/Marijuana-Hydroponics-High-Tech-Water-Culture/dp/0914171070
http://www.amazon.com/Growing-Marijuana-Hydroponically-Tina-Wright/dp/0914171542

Hope you can use a little bit of that info.
