| Those are drip systems, at least indicated by the picture. Pretty good deal for $50, how will the setup cost $300? I'm growing 2 plants in a passive hydroponic "system", basically hydro soil-less medium in buckets/pots that are handwatered instead of pumps etc. and can immedietly tell that hydro is at least working out better for me then my last soil attempt.

that was so friggin cool to find someone who has used the product i am about to use!........your journal was perfect for me!.... i was only going to use 1 plant in that contraption, but i seen from u i can easily do 2...... i felt i was in over my head when i read all the things in the instruction manual, but i think if i can manage water in a fish-tank, i should beable to handle maintaning the water in that 2gal resevoir....... did u say u had to refill that thing like 2 or 3 times a day!?.....if so, maybe i can find some type of 5gal resevoir that will fit into that waterfarm, so i will not have to refill or flush it as often?...... im going to be talkin to you pretty often, concidering your the only person i know on here to use that system (and i looked around quite a bit).... did u buy the COMPLETE-SET? with the bloom and all that included?...
