Just getting ready to place into tent 2 weeks old now. I start my plants in Solo cups and grow 10 days to 2 weeks. Then I up pot to one gallon pots for 2 weeks,then put in 5 gallon final fabric pots. The first time I did this with just 2 plants the other 2 in DWC,and what a difference no cleaning res no cleaning pumps & lines every 2 weeks,I just clean out res and fill with tap water. When I fill 24 gallon res I let it circulate 4 hrs.with a pump inside the res to extract Chlorine and such. Then add nutes PH to 5.6 and let circulate another 2 hours and PH again 5.8 on the button. Close up res and good for 4-5 days.
