Flexible hydro system similar to wilma

black grouse · 05-10-16, 09:39 PM

Has anyone ever seen or used anything like this? I can only find ones for sale in Australia which is a pest as postage is £120 to the UK. I like the flexible base as my new home grow area will be through a small attic door so none of my wilmas will fit.

There is a user on here called platinum_rouge and he said "Its cheap and simple to build and will outperform the wilma."
He said he'll upload his plans, but I don't/cannot see them.

PM him and he may do so, if he's still around.

Have you looked at the 424 NFT grow tank..45 litre or the size down is a 20 litre???

Size down is the 205 i think.. they are not flexable just small..

I have looked at NFT Happy Roken but I have never actually used one personally and worried tbh. I have tried various systems but always go back to soil and loved the ease / laziness of the wilma. I never used the drip/irrigation on it. Basically all I use it for is a water run off/store and have the pump+hose pipe in it and use it manually so any ideas that mimic this would be ideal

Could this be done with NFT?

Get a Nft set up.. easiest of all hydro's imo, fast growth good yields, no substrate to throw away, apart from roots.

BA, the only thing that puts me off is it looks more work than rdwc?
I could be completely wrong tho.
I am DREADING getting my temps right as well when I move.... spent a fortune getting the correct setup where I am for a 80x80x160 cupboard+tent after repeated failed attempts and ended up with a 6" cool tube, 6" RKV and carbon filter all inter connected. My entire setup is in use somewhere else now tho ( don't ask ) so its start from scratch again! I am hoping to go 2.4x2.4x2 or 2.4x2x2 depending when I measure. I have about £900 to spend on a full setup tho so should be able to do something
