Peregrine Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Anyone seen or used this system? Looks nice and is on offer atm with free delivery. I've been growing in soil for 10 years and am looking for a hydroponic system to go into a 1.2x1.2M area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSZZ Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 I just had a quick look, it's just black buckets and standard fittings mate you could knock that up from standard grow shop stock for less than £100. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a look in my profile, there's a couple of systems I've built which might give you some ideas. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badbillybob Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 i would avoid it, those return lines are way too small 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenVision Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 1 hour ago, badbillybob said: i would avoid it, those return lines are way too small I dont think they are returns, or at least not in the traditional sense. I think its just a 4 bubbler set, like basic DWC buckets, but they have connected them and put shut-off's on each pot so you can drain it easier etc. One of the issues with separate bubble buckets as Im sure you know is draining them, where the plants are on top you can get the lid open easily. With this system you could open all 4 valves and drain it via the "Header" pot, which isn't actually a header pot, just a bucket, but it means you dont need to touch the plant buckets. So its more like a hybrid system I suppose, its shaped like an undercurent, has a "Header" pot, but its actually just 4 bubble buckets with a 5th bucket for emptying and filling. Clever, but I agree with GGZZ you could just copy the idea for half the price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badbillybob Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 given that ive got about 50 buckets from various old systems, think i might put some built, proper rdwc systems on bay of eeee.
