    Hydrophonics ??????

    I have been doing a little research on hydro-phonics for growing cannibis.I found an outfit in Toronto that sells what they say is everything to get started. Of course I will start small with just a couple of plants.Here's a link to what I am considering, can some of you check it out and let me know if I need anything else. I already have a tent and 1200 watt grow light. Thanks Muskie Man..

    Hey, I've seen a few such kits advertised that are very similar.

    I went from Soil to Hydro & I used this GWE guide to build my setup https://www.growweedeasy.com/high-yi...nics-technique

    So I assume that you have the grow tent and lights already yada yada..
    But my initial thought is - when starting how are you going to get the water up from the reservoir to the net pots during the seedling phase before the roots manage to reach down to the water without a pump???
    Most of the kits is good, the air pump, net pots, tubing, air stones & ceramic beads. But what about lids to the reservoir, how else will the net pots be supported above the reservoir? And one bucket per net-pot (ie Plant) is going to take up room.
    Not trying to be negative here, but even tho I have only been doing hydroponics for just 2 years, this kit only seems to have half of what you really need.

    My advice is, if you are in any way a handyman, follow the link above and build your own - the setup allows for more plants per square foot (or square Meter) and covers every aspect of starting your own DWC hydro rig...
