I am looking into a scrog, which method of hydro works best with this setup.. I was thinking of doing DWC with 5 gallon buckets, however it would be hard to empty and fill without hurting the babies.
I was considering putting drains on the bottoms of the DWC buckets.
However is there a better option that would be either cheaper or easier?
As far as it goes, DWC is one of the cheapest and easiest hydro setups there is. In a Scrog, i would recommend having drains on the buckets. Then changing the nutrients is as simple as draining out the bottom and refilling through the top. But even without drains, it is still possible, but much more difficult. My current setup has no drains, but they will be added shortly. Ant to top it of, I have 6 full sized flowering plants in one tub. And even with this and only 3.5ft to work with, I still manage to change my tubs without harm to the plants.
