Hey guys I have finally upgraded to a hydroponics setup. I was going to do a deep water culture style grow untill I read up and decided on a foggoponnics system.
I have decided to piece together my own setup so here is what I have so far:
Humboldt Series Nutrients-
Grow- 2-1-6
Micro- 5-0-1
Bloom- 0-6-5
1 Single Head Nutramist fogger by Aeromist hydroponics
1 5gal Bucket with lid & a medium sized storage bin, thick plastic, with lid.
For my basket and medium im just going to get a 5" net pot and either Rockwool cubes or a bag of Hydroton. I have thought about just using a 3" Neoprene disc instead of the basket.
Im not sure what would be best to use for the foggoponics style. I may just use the single head and a single grow location with the 5gal bucket untill im used to the growing style. Then I will buy more heads and use the storage bin for a multi plant grow.
For monitoring the system I have a Milwaukee pH 600. Its a digital pH reader that I found on ebay. IM looking for a decent ppm and or Ec reader at the moment. I wont start growing without one.
Also I am tight on money but i'm going to buy the FF hydroponics nutrient line, all 3 1l bottles, with my next check.
This setup will probably be an outside/porch plant setup for the moment. Just till I get the hang of this style of growing then it will come indoors.
Let me know what you think about this idea for a starters setup. This will be my first hydroponic grow setup so any advice will be greatly appreciated.
