Hey Rumple,

Do you use a water pump to pump water from the bottom of your buckets to the top of your plants?
Or do your roots just sit in the bubbles and soak up nutrients?

I only use a water pump to fill and drain. The bubbles do the rest.

I'm bored rump, thought I would throw my 2cents in and save you time answering the same questions.

brian5555, buckets need to run 24/7 with bubbles, no bubbles = death.

Wonderboy88, black buckets are great but you would still need to tape it up or at least cover it up with mylar which would be much easier. Black gets hot under lights and you don't want warm water. Your water will be 5 degrees or more cooler with the black covered up, I've experienced it, mine actually dropped 10 degrees covered.

hello people ive only just joined this fantastic website and come across rumples how to make a bubblebucket and what a great idea it is rumple if i may say so....anyway ive acheived to go out and get a few things to make one and heres the end product..........not sure about temprature of water cos i never thought about that lol but i will be testing the temprature when im ready to clone and thats if my plants a female or not otherwise ill be rippin it out the compost and eating it lol the things i bought to make one is as follows ........ bubble creator with pump....one little water pump one peice of hose lol.....one bucket preferably small....superglue....foam cut outs for clones to sit in.....bucket covered with foil but may need to change it to something else to stop light gettin through but i think i done a good job but what do u think?????p.s the hose is being bent so that the water being pumped from the pump attached to the bottom part of the hose takes the water back up to the top of the water so its circulating........im not lookin for bonus points either just thought id try and make one and here ya go.....

Your talking about taking cuttings from a new mom? Wait till she has a few extra branches to spare. Best to get the cuttings before it shows sex if possible.

Most plants show sex a few weeks into flowering stage. But it's not always the case.
Peace, r.

off of your knowledge i actually created a bubble cloner before i knew they existed I have to say, i'm still on my first plant, she's going into flowering next week , but the bubble cloner i made has mad her clones thrive. I only had a problem when i didn't make sure the water was topped off. They seem to love the splash though.

Wow... so I finally finished reading this whole thread, did 25 the first day.. and rest today. I definitely recommend it to everybody. Much respect to you Rumple, awesome to still see you on here almost 2 years later.. still answering the same questions.

Alright, did some research myself.. just wanted your opinion. Does c02 system make a huge difference? Or will I be alright without?

Thanks.
Yes to both questions. CO2 made a big improvement but you will be fine without enrichment.
