Can DWC compete with Ebb and Flow?
hepobermanstarted grow question 5y ago
I've seen incredible growth with flood and drain systems using giant netcups of hydroton but the upkeep is a burden. Can DWC compete in terms of yield and quality? The simplicity of DWC is very appealing to me. Anyone tried both?

Should I repot to a pot with drainage?I have been reading that drainage is very important. I am using a very large terracotta pot, which does not have drain holes. Would it be recommended to repot, drill holes in the bottom or should it be ok?

Hydro Drip System - Any tips?Hi, is anyone familiar with hydroponic drip systems? I did my first two cycles in DWC and wanted to try something different. I was intrigued and purchased the "Platinium HydroPro 60" (similar to Atami's Wilma) and would fill it with expanded clay.
