    Best setup for RDWC?

    I'm going to say this from the beginning, I've only done one RDWC and it was a DIY project and it was a leaky mess that i gave up on and put them in individual buckets which I'm more than familiar with.

    is it worth the switch from soil to hydro

    I love hydro. Depending on the system you chose, and how big, the power used in the equipment is quite minimal. I have a very large air pump that can run around 20 dwc buckets if i maxed it but i use that on 8. Those run 24/7 and i think that big one uses 120 watts. 1 kilowatt hour is 1000...

    Light proof 5 gallon buckets

    grow tent help

    you get what you pay for with anything so i suspect if you spend good money on a tent, it should hold up very well. With that said, I have 2 identical cheap-o ebay tents that are 76"x76"x76". Ive hung my magnum xxxl hood from them for a couple years. Ive got to the point were I cut a tiny hole...
