Glad you addressed this. It's simply a fancy name for a dwc, combined with aeroponic. Picture a regular dwc system with net cups and all, except it has a water pump inside, ran to a hose with sprayers connected. These sprayers mist the roots above the surface of the water with fine jets of oxygenated water from inside the bucket, along with airstones in the bottom.

oh i see, very nice aeroponic setup. may i ask what your soil, nutes, light setup are?? whats your plan with it when it goes into veg.
Soil will be FFOF. Nutes will be FF as well for the soil op. The hydro setup is running general hydroponics nutes. 150w hps on both. The one in hydro cab is self contained ballast, while the one used in the soil op has a remote ballast. LST on both grows probally along with scrog. Im not goiing to veg either for very long, because this is a trial run for both cabs.
Not sure about the freebie lemon skunk and powerkush, but the NL and WD are short period flowering strains usually finishing up at 50-55 days or so I believe.
The hps arrives tommorrow, so it will be a busy day. The plants aren't going under it just yet, but I will be installing and running tests for sure. If I find time, I'll take some pics.
green hit i have that same set up in one of my grow rooms you will not be sorry. that 150 is the best money i spent on a new light for what it puts out.
Thanks for the heads up GH. I remember you saying that you had gotten one. My measurements say that it will fit just right with the factory hood/reflector. I should be able to fit four 8 inch square pots in there very snugly. This will probably be the way I go, and if all goes well, I will be constructing a Rumple Bucket in the near future probably. Gonna go all organic this time around though I think. l8rs
green i got good news for you i had 6- 1 gallon pots under mine. in a 30 x 32 room. go big green think big. and dont be afraid to add plants in the mix as they become ready. if you need anymore help with that light let me know. if you forget the wiring i will open mine again for you to set you straight. just hit me with a pm. you are gonna love that light man. dont touch the bulb with bare hands if you didnt knowand never touch when lit
Well, my cab is only 18x18. Yeah, I know that the oils from your hands can f up the bulb. Big NO NO. Oh, and I gotta cool lighter/bottle opener from htg in the package. I'm about to try and upload pics again. Let's hope it doesn't freeze my browser again for some reason.
