    If you’re reading this, first of all thanks for your time. <div>
    </div><div>I’ve been steadily building a knowledge base curtsey of the RealDGC Podcasts. Having been on a bit of a Scolosis/ back pain journey my Chiropractor recommended CBD, after purchasing some I quickly turned my attention to producing a strain I could use to support my treatment and get enjoyment from whilst cultivating. </div><div>
    </div><div>I actually jumped right into DWC, I know that’s not advisable but it’s measurable, controllable features appealed to me. I managed to get through my first cycle (Fastbuds Auto: Pineapple & Blueberry) learning as I went. l produced more than enough which was ideal allowing me to help my Chiropractor out too!</div><div>
    </div><div>Having really enjoyed the process I’ve since given it another go with a free seed (Fastbuds Auto: Gorilla Cookies), still in DWC and I should know the results in a few weeks. </div><div>
    </div><div>I’ve been researching kit to simplify my process and stumbled upon the Hydrobucket, given the current legal status over her (United Kingdom) I’m finding it impossible to source despite trying to contact them directly. </div><div>
    </div><div>So to get to the point, I’m looking for a fellow enthusiast over in Canada who’d be willing to post a few over too me. Happy to cover all the costs but appreciate there’s a leg work / inconvenience. </div><div>
    </div><div>Thanks for reading </div>

      I’ve looked at those RDWC style multi pot systems, I’m filling a 1.2×1.2m (4x4ft) with one plant. Trying to ScrOG as best I can to get an evening canopy and my results are ample so happy to stick to one pot.

    I am also a dwc grower from the UK I use 25l black food buckets with lids ordered from amazon, drill a couple of holes at the top just under the rim for air lines and inserted net pots into the lids. Combined with a good air pump. Hope this might help

      I maybe under the spell of marketing but to my eye the Hydrobucket offers a few benefits I can’t see in any other product on the market. The side access for EC/PH checks without disturbing the plant for one, the lid with integrated mounting points for ScrOG being another. I have access issues getting around the plant so an integrated ScrOG / bucket is appealing to do that late veg defoliation etc.

      Appreciate the insight though buddy.

      Correct me if I’m wrong but Autopots require a grow medium? I’m looking for full DWC. Cracking semi automated system but I’m keen to keep things DWC.

    i have always went the DIY direction with set ups, from nft to dwc, i now make my own aeroponics systems and timers. i know your looking something that allows a scrog net to be easily attached, personally i would buy 12 or 15mm pvc pipe and T connectors and build a frame you can place over the top of the pot to attach the net too. on the dwc system it so easy to make you own, adding an extra hole and buying a inspection hole cover would give you the ph testing access and or fill hole. buying simple things like rubber grommets to tidy up any holes drilled in for airlines ect puts the finishing touches on it

      “plant it” buckets are great to start with, they have a flat section on the side of the pot that are great place to put drain holes/taps in

      Thanks pal, it’s my plan b to get the tools out and give it a go for sure.

      I’m still holding out hope one of our Canadian friends can facilitate, I really like the OEM feel. I know it’s only a bucket but I like to do everything I can to the best of my ability and I’ll only get wound up trying to achieve perfection!
