ok so ive heard of people doing something called bubble buckets. just buckets with an air stone in each with a given amount of nutrients and added nutriend/water solution over time with NO recirculation of water. How does this work with the PPM and PH, as naturally it will change over time. do you just empty the buckets and refill? or add as needed? anyone who does this method please tell me all about it as i am very interested. thanks!

I'm using SH bubbleponics which feeds water to netcups through tubes so is a little more complex. The bubble bucket as I understand it is just deep water culture with bubbles added. Yes, they drain and reset nutes and pH periodically.

not recommended to use 1 airstone/airline for more than 2 or 3 plants, tops. anything more and the air is not distributed evenly and get an uneven growth. Use more O2 lines for more plants to evenly distriute the O2

yes, you change the water weekly, and increase nutes over time. its fairly simple. im about to start 12 bubble buckets in my closet :weed:
