hello, i currently have a soil garden and was wondering if this could be a good idea for a begining try in hydro... if i were to buy this could i just plug in and grow or will i be running into problems with this??? thanks for the infom, love these threads!

you should be good to go, however you will need to have nutrients and ph +/- along with a ph and ppm meter

and lights of course

cool, i have a 400 watt pulsar two way right now. can i keep it in the same room and do you think this will be a hard system to use? thanks for that quick reply

sorry for the delay. are you asking to keep the 400w light in the same room as the plants? you will want a MH bulb for vegging and a MPS bulb for flowering

a more complete system

Yes you would be fine with that.


And I love the irony in your thread title..

well spotted!

That system cost's 50 bucks shipped. You could probably build 2 of them yourself for around 70 bucks. Those buckets are so easy to build a cave man can do it. Do you have a hydro store nearby?

Buckets 8 bucks a piece.
Net pot lids 5 bucks a piece.
Air pump 10 bucks a piece.
Air stones 3 bucks a piece.
10 lb bag of hydroton 10 bucks
Air tube 3 bucks

You could build one for 35 bucks and use the 15 bucks you have left over for your nutrients.

Just trying to save you a little money.
