  1. Hey all...Just had a quick question.

    Im about to start my first Indoor Hydro grow (Bubble Buckets), and just got all the equipment. Kind of silly that im asking this AFTER I got all the stuff, but I was wondering if
    Air Pump Dual Diaphragm - Greners.com

    ^This airpump with one of these Ecoplus Large Round Airstones airstones in (4) 5 gallon buckets would be too much aeration? Don't know if that's possible, but hey, its my first time, don't wanna make any mistakes:D
     
  2. I don't think anyone's ever had too much aeration. I use a $6 pump from wall mart. Last time I didn't even use bubble stones. Got 5.5oz in something like 90-100 days from seed.
     
  3. You can have "too much" Aeration, but it just effects effeciency, not your grow.

    Water can only absorb a certain amount of oxygen and then it becomes saturated.
     
  4. Thanks for the input. Just figured out (Wow im stupid) that you can adjust the airflow of each output, so I should be fine=o Not worried about the effieciency, just wanted to make sure I wasn't gonna kill muh babies with too many bubbles=O
