In about four weeks I'll be taking my first clones, they will be the mothers of my future hydro grow. Ebay has helped get most of my supplies. Just got a 100GPH R/O system in, a super strong piston driven air pump, and earth juice nutes.
I'm torn between set-ups. I want to do 2 or 3 bubble buckets with a res./control. But my space is better suited for a single tub holding several plants in the same bin.
Look :
You can't see it clearly but I have room to the left of the hot water heater for 6 five gallon buckets to fit snugly(that's why I said only 2-3 bubble buckets), or it could hold one of those 25 gallon rubbermaid bins perfectly with a res. underneath.
Considering the space it will used; what do you guys recommend? BBs or single bin with multi plants?
If single bin, should it be ebb-n-flow or the oxi-potin system like the BB?
My major concern is water temperature. I will have to buy or make some system to keep the water cool. Anyone ever use a water chiller? When I go to fill the res. tank of any system could I use R/O ice instead of water to top the tank daily?
