How to plant seedlings in a hydroponics system. Here I will show you how to plant seedlings in a homemade hydroponics DWC system

Hydro tun is correct pronunciation. Not hydrotin

can you use a aquarium heater to maintain the water temp?

can you use the same plants? or do you have to replant all the time?

do you keep the system running with the lights off?

so how do you change your water without damaging your roots?

I love your Zoobas' Bro. Great Vid thank you!

do you keep your plants in that same container for the whole grow or do you transfer them to their own DWC buckets once they reach a certain height?

Oke!and good

The drawback to hydroponics is you have to buy "plant food" or nutrients and supplements that are high-priced.

The disadvantage of hydroponics is you will need to buy "plant food" or nutrition and supplements which can be pricey.

@Gogo you leave them in

this is only going to make it more difficult for the actual seedling to grow since the hydroton is blocking the path for the roots to reach under and into the water. you should have the rockwool with seedling at the bottom of the net pot and the water level a bit lower with the air pump and air stone bubbling into it and giving nutrients when running. then put hydroton around it.... otherwise your method will be taking everything for the seedling to reach more water.

Would this also work if your seedling is in a 2" soil container?

How often do you change your water and nutrients?

Good video mate. Thanks.

You really can build the garden that does not need weeding, tilling or cultivating, the spreading of fertilizer or garden compost, and no watering or irrigating; all when your vegetables generate up to 10x the amount of fresh vegetables than plants from a dirt garden. help1.info/aquaponics-guide

I can re use those rock pellets and rock wool right? Im new to hydroponics

I had my seedlings in rockwool but because of the exposure to the sun they turn green on top and I do not know how to avoid this. Yours seems perfect. What did I do wrong? this occurred before I transplant them to the DWC

if you want to get better results you`ll need atleast two 6in circular ceramic air stones and a high output air pump in that tub of yours, i have 4 120lt tubs 12 plants per tub, and run 32 high power pumps, the micro air bubbles get right into the roots and yeilding around 30% more a grow.

Would you tell me wt is the name of the fixing ball?thank you
