That is what I thought but I got bubble bros buckets, advanced nutrients changed weekly and R.O. water is the best. I look at people who grow in dirt and they take forever. I got seed to bud in 100 days in my last grow. 6 plants over 1.5 lbs dried.
this is what I used to grow in dirt.

@boardsbird beat me to it. DWC is pretty simple. But if you have multiple plants it will be hard to get to the back ones. But it’s a cheap way to test it out. And it’s upgradeable to RDWC if you choose to.

Theres something to be said about never worrying about bug’s “filtered outside air intake”
And the nutes no harder to mix than making a modern day mixed drink for a uppity 21 year old girl

i feel like it would be easier to control ph in a dwc. is dwc deceptive? it seems easy.
also whats rdwc
RDWC is recirculating deep water culture. I’ll show you my room as an example. The tote with the yellow lid is a reservoir. The white pvc pipes keep all 3 totes balanced while the bigger black line pumps water out of the reservoir to the 2 with plants. It makes it where water is moved between the 3 regularly. And of course air lines to each for air stones just like regular DWC.

whats the advantage of recirculating the water? does it provide more volume and keep nutes and temperatures more balanced?
could i get a similar effect by pumping water from the bottom of the dwc and top feeding?
More evaporation and it salts your media up. You’d be better off spraying the roots
so id hook the spray nozzle to the line from the water pump and have it spray on the hydroton? seems like i should have four sprayers for coverage. do sprayers get clogged?
What he said, I got bubble bros they have special baskets in the middle for starting seedlings. I realized that you get better control with dwc and less bugs too.

Complicated it isn’t, it’s really simple. Buckets, add medium for plant to grow on, I use the fired clay pellets, add large air pump , bubble stone. Use good water, preferably R.O. add nutrients. The key is to watch the ph and nutrients ppm. Plants like 5.8 ph so keep them happy and healthy, they go nuts very fast. I plan to 12/12 them October 30 , just 4 weeks after seed.
