Hydro system for a fly in fly out worker
Hi guys - galls haven't grown for a while and I am looking for a hydro system that requires no maintenance for a week at a time eg hempy buckets or auto bucket systems, as I have not used these systems before any info - pros & cons on using either system would greatly help. Groom will be 80x120x2.0 using 400mh & hps to flower cheers fellow tokers :-)

Or you could opt for the IWS system's,with a big enought 'res' they'd be fine all week.
(have a look a winstuns "rise of the machines" grow diary,that might help inspire you on how to look after them while not at home)

Basically it's not the system that's the issue it's the size of the Reservoir
NFT RDWC etc etc
It doesn't matter what the system is because the plants will all drink roughly the same so the issue is getting the system setup to run for extended periods
You will need about 300L extra in full flower if running 10 plants under 2 600w hps

I agree with Icon. I run 135L res now and at peak flower I am changing every 4-5 days. Also my system has a tendency to plug up (food and drain) so I have an extra overflow at peak level to allow for continuos operation. That would be one of many concerns. I would try to find a trustworthy person to check on them once a week to see if things are running smoothly. I have never left my plants alone for that long and would miss them dearly lol.
