Hi GD community, I want to get some input from other DWC / Hydro growers, I am working on a summer project and want to ask who has grown DWC outside and what is the biggest reservoir that anyone has used for DWC ?

Thanks guys, I know res temps are the main concern but my solution would be to run a submerge pump into my well, we have one here and use it to cool a much bigger res. I thought about roughly 200 liters with 4 x 20cm airstones with 4 35L/h air pumps.
The real idea would be to run a plant outdoor the full season but in hydro 💀

I have ran a dwc outdoors but the reservoir gets warm so it was a struggle to keep the water oxygenated enough. Dutch buckets are a much better option for outdoors

Only ever ran DWC indoor. But can see not being able to control your water Temps outdoor as sun will be baking it all day.
As long as you get proper o2 to h2o ratio don't think size really matters.

Ready for flushing?It’s my first grow and I’m not quit sure if I’d already flush the plant. And how long do you all think I should keep it growing from now on?
As autumn already hit and the weather will be cloudy and not warmer than 15*C over the day. ( Installed a light and it’s in an greenhouse)

When should I lollipop?When is it better to lollipop if at all?
I just flipped her two days ago and she started growing a bit faster. And looks quite bushy down there.
Should I do it now before she started growing buds? Or should I wait a bit? Or no need to do that at all?
