My first true Hydroponic grow. Been growing in Coco/Perlite for aver 8 years now. I know that C/P is actually hydro but this truly feels like hydro.
Got a hell of a deal on an Active Aqua Flow & Grow 6 pot setup. I just love my hydro guy, he beat every price I could find on line by over $175, plus he gave me a shit load of freebies, a domed starter kit, 25 feet of 3/4' hose, a quart bottle of Hydro-guard, and a big discount on the two - 50 liter bags of Hydroton. Got to love this person.
OK, here is the start of GR's RDWC Flow & Grow! Got 7 Gorilla Cookies Auto's germinating now, plan on planting early this coming week in 1.5" rockwool cubes, once germinated will let the get good roots and in the 3 to 5 leaf stage before I put them in RDWC system.

Everything all hooked up
and tested for leaks, none noted.

Expanded clay pellets put into the grow containers and those containers sat in the fill container. I triple rinsed and drained the pellets then put them in a large container filled with RO water and containing 0.9 ml/gallon of GH Flora Grow, Micro and Bloom and pH'ed. Let that sit over night then rinsed them again prior to putting them in the grow pots.

The 55 gallon reservoir, with 36 gallon of pH'ed RO water.

Now we wait for the young ones and let's see how this grow goes. Y'all jump in and give advice as you see fit, this is new to me so I am asking for help.
Will move to a journal soon.
