hi i was wanting to know if anybody could send me a link to build a dwc system and maintaining your plants in it from seeds to harvest any help will be great!!!
 
There are many and your first step should to decide if you want an active or passive system. Active relies on submersible pumps and feeder tubes while passive relies on just bubbles and the mist they create or a wick. All are DWC, a big category. here's one that will give you the idea of how the simplest ones work, a good place to start. A little bigger would be one based on a tote with space for 4 or more plants but operating the same way. If you want details on that let me know.

Keep in mind that the whole concept of bubbles has become a marketing thing and that "Bubbleponics" is not a passive system and is a trademarked name for a proprietary system. I'll pm you some info on a passive setup. Yes they can grow to full size for indoor plants which is not as big as outdoors. Size is pretty much limited by your ceiling but bigger isn't always the best yield. Most of us keep them to 3-4 ft. (your pms must be turned off)
