I was browsing the web yesterday for detailed instruction on how to make a set up. and i came across this simple little set up. looks really easy to make and cheap. http://www.instructables.com/id/EQBFMQANUAERV7BV0D/ Also for the Newbs out there like myself watch the Video " i grow Chronic" on google videos lot's of really good info.... and of course even more on this site
that would definitely work. its just a simple deep water culture and they are easy to make and pretty cheap. you should check out Rumpleforeskin's sticky on making bubble buckets, same concept just done specifically for bud and very well done. http://forum.grasscity.com/general-indoor-growing/121335-lets-build-bubble-bucket-step-step.html
It'll work yes, however there are issues. When you reach full flower and have 6 plants in that thing - it becomes a total pain in the ass to change out the rez. Not to mention most plants need 1sqft for proper lighting/growth...this setup certainly doesnt provide that. Check out bubbling buckets...much easier to work with.
