In a DWC system you should use black 3 gallon buckets -- easier to change solution and helps keep algae to a minimum

I would be interested in you setting running organic nutrients. I have concern with using chemicals, but would love to have a system that feed organic nutrients. I read an article that had a reciepe of "a basic solution of 1-1/2 teaspoons fish emulsion, 1-1/2 teaspoons liquid seaweed, and a teaspoon of bloodmeal to each gallon of water. The mix varies, depending upon the type of plant being grown. Less bloodmeal should be used with flowering and fruiting produce than with leafy crops"

@ArizonaAdventures Have you looked into aquaponics? Pretty organic.

About the only thing you put in the water is what you feed your fish.

@deadman12078 I have watched a lot of videos on aquaponics, but for me here in Arizona I don't have the best climate for it. It seems like a really great system once it's set up correctly. I actually watched a video series called "the voyage of the mimi" when I was a kid, anyway, there was a group on the east coast called the new alchemists who had a awesome set-up back in 1984 I think it was. That show was so cool it's worth google searching for some of the footage. It stars a young ben affleck
