    I have used a connected reservoir in the past but i prefer to remove the plant from the bucket, and put into a clean bucket each time with fresh nutes. I have a full set of extra buckets to mix in when water change comes so i swap the buckets and clean them each time. Its very easy to lift the bucket lid off and put it onto a new bucket.

    I saw your photos earlier and they look terrific...but I have a question for you...would using a connected reservoir make it easier to change nutrients without having to remove buckets?

    I got 6 of these to try to set up a SCROG in my hydro boxes. I had to clip off a significant portion of the legs, but we'll see how it works. The legs fit through the net pot holes and I tightened them in place with wire.

    Thank you, exactly what I wanted to know

    I'm such an idiot
    I use 6 inch net cups (on 5g pails), and I added 4 eyebolts to the net cups, so I would have some tie down points. I just needed to think taller

    Thanks again, would love to follow the grow, see/hear about how it worked for you and any lessons learned.

    I will put a horizontal pic up later when the lights come back on. I agree with Cloud and one of the other reasons that was driving my desire to use the scrog besides trying to increase yields was to support the branches as it is difficult as I am sure you know trying to support the buds so they don't fall over so it helps a lot in that regard as well. That said I was trying to run a proper scrog not just use it for support.

    I more or less followed the Scrog kit shown in the attached pictures. I have the posts sitting in the top of the bucket lid, he bottom ring is secure and the top ring that the trellis sits on is on set screws and can move up and down on the posts if/when I need to raise or lower the screen. It actually worked pretty good. I just remove the whole bucket lid with everything; plant, lid, scrog etc place it on an empty bucket, change my water then place it back on the original bucket with the fresh water/nutes.

    Scrog for a tote, i understand, but Drekthar is in 5gallon pails

    Drekthar? Would you post a horizontal pic, at bucket level?

    I did a scrog on my last dwc grow and it worked out perfect. Plant is tall enough i can get a hose in tote and drain water. One great thing about a scrog in dwc is it provides good support for the branches and i didn't have to worry about buds falling over.

    Is he screen, secured to the top of the netpot?

    How big a deal, is res change? I thought about scrog and DWC, but couldn't figure out how I was going to do res changes, top ups, etc
