DIY Wetwoods // DWCR Build

@Boradan - you have dwc-r experience how did you find running multiple plants?

A pain in the ass.
some strains with n-tox and others running fine in my last grow was more than marginally annoying.
Also, some fine with calmag and others getting deficiencies - hard to find a good balance.
Possibly Definitely my own fault for doing different breeder/strains with very little experience.

As a disclaimer, I have just started on my THIRD grow, so I wouldn't call me experienced by any stretch of the imagination.
For this grow, I have dropped down to one plant to make my life easier (hopefully).

Yeah I would be running 3 x THC Bomb, and if i went 3 x dwc id possibly mix it up a bit strain wise.
thanks for the input Boradan appreciate it bud

in my eyes, slow and steady wins the race whenever i advise any new grower that is my first ever rule i tell them as people think to give them tons of feed it makes sense bigger plants and they go mad and burn the shit out of them less is better than more i know from experience also why dont you if you fancy it for a laugh and make friends join one of the grow battles on here the first leg starts on feb 1st and the next in may i just thought id mention it

I have fancied doing a battle, will see if i can get my system up and running in time. im really torn between dwc and rdwc. will keep you upto date bud

if you were fast enough the bomb seeds one may be available im growing that strain in the feb battle as you have your own seeds

Could easily get atleast 1 dwc going into my small tent. oh tom why do you put these thoughts into my head

just thought something for you to get involved with if you can germinate by feb 1st you would have to check see if there is space

Hi @wetwood If you have not already take a look at my sticky thread about DWC basics
https://www.autoflower.org/threads/deep-water-culture-basics-bubbleponics.64478/

The biggest problem with recirculating DWC is keeping the roots out of the plumbing. Anything less than 2" pipe between the reservoirs will be a problem. Have the pump intake at the top of the water line and crossovers at the bottom helps some. If you watch your PH very closely you will have few problems with nutrient deficiencies between different strains but it can still happen. Let the PH roam around between 5.6 and 6.3. that way it moves through the optimum zone for the different nutrients. I have not used Dutch Pro Nutrients. There is a test thread on here somewhere for the Dutch Pro Line. I usually start at 50% of the chart and add 10% each week until I get a little tip burn and then back off 10%.

Tag me if you have questions.
