DWC First Timer - Day 1 - RQS Fat Banana Automatic & Diesel Automatic

Hello friends!

Update:

Aug 5 - did nothing today except check pump lines and look on with hope.

Aug 6 - found the res had a build up of white foam. Panicked and googled. Turns out the Biobizz Ph down is made using citric acid and definitely not suitable. I could smell the solution turning.

Emptied the res, washed thoroughly and refilled, this time without ph adjustment. Purchased calibration fluid for conductivity meter, Orca liquid mycorrhizae and hydro specific ph down!!! What an idiot!!!

Day 1 - Aug 7 - WE HAVE LIFTOFF!!!

Fat Banana has her first touch of the water. Diesel is a day or two behind. Solution bubbled overnight, temp is 75f. Added a 1/2 dose of Orca. Will fill up the Banana net pot with hydroton and cover with something that I’m yet to make.

Ok perfect close them babies up I think you are just fine. You have them positioned right. You just don’t want that big bubble in the middle to be directly under your taproot. So just keep the stones off center and you’re alllll gravy my friend
 
So close all the manifolds or just out the original hose you had on it hahhahaa(sorry for this extra step I shoulda asked for the video first) oh well good learning step anyway. Again great job my friend.
