Just put seeds in rockwool last night. Using two 5 gallon bubbleponics buckets with a top feed and gravity fed reservoir. Top feed with gravity fed reservoir circulates a flow to each plant of about 5 per hour. Each bucket holds about 3 gallons and reservoir 2 gallons making system 8 gallons. Geminating seeds directly in the rockwool in its present container. Growing in a custom L shaped grow room 5x10 + 5x8 (about 90 square feet area), along with other plants.
4 days from seed to sprout.😀 for the 1st one, hope to see the 2nd Tangie sprout any day now.
Unfortunately Tangie is now a 1 bucket system with a reservoir. #2 sprouted barely and didn't move forward.

Good luck. Just some things I see I would do. Make your bucket light tight as roots DO NOT like light....plus shit will grow inside. I would use peroxide to keep things sterile in nutrient water or some other product. This means that you cannot use things like Great White as they are living things and will be killed off by running a sterile system. I used to grow like this and loved it..I used ZONE by dutch master. Also if your nutrient solution climbs to 80f or higher you will get root death. Oxygenate your buckets well also. Good luck hope all goes well :)

@Ketamine,
Thank you for your comments. I do keep the buckets sealed from light, yet plan to expand this by going with colored feed lines instead of clear like I presently use. Also plan to change some of the drain lines to colored since I've seen roots growing up the sight tube.
Interesting thought on sterilizing the solution water... have to give that some thought as I am now using great white.
Thanks again for stopping by and look forward to any comments you may have in the future.

@Captainonthego, No they are stand alone buckets with 2 air stones each bucket to provide a ton of oxygen to the roots.

@Ketamine,
Nice video, I see 2 tubes in the buckets... is that a circulating system?

Sorry to hear you are having difficulties. I used to also do bucket DWC. A few things I do know about doing it that way is : 1 make sure you have good aeration. 2. Make sure water temp is not high. 3. I ran a "sterile" system as so no bad pathogens can grow and cause root rot. If you are using Organics it is simply setting your root zone up for a host of nasty things.
I ran PH of 5.8 with 150 PPM (500 scale) CalMag , and 500 PPM of nutes as the roots are actually in it 24/7 and do not need more than that IMO. You probably know all this already , but thought I would say it anyway and good luck friend hope all goes well 😁
