I just finished assembling my 4 buckets for scrogging . 4 x 5 gallons with individual scrog so I can easily take them out of the tent for giving it the good care . I will be able to turn them and change their places so every corner has it's turn in the center where the light hit the most . 5 gallon at hardware store ,ice cream container hand drilled with holes , tomato tutors to support the screen . Each bucket has two air lines and bubble stone .
I spayed glue and stick some thick ass aluminiun foil all around .
Can't wait to use all this ...

Do you just put the screen over or do you train them and fold them back under?

Did you build your setup? I have a 4x4 also and was looking into https://www.amazon.com/AquaBuckets-Gallon-Culture-Hydroponic-System/dp/B007I6ZVUI/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&qid=1475159875&sr=8-14&keywords=dwc+4+site

that's a ripoff. and the return lines are too small.

i built a 4 site rdwc with 2 plants in each 27 gal tote and one 27 gal tote as a control reservoir. probably for less than a hundy.

Wish I had some DIY talent. I much rather prefer to just spend the money with no hassle. Too bad theres nothing like it on the market
