    Red face Ok i have gotten my hands on a brand new near complete iws system

    Just need the pots and trays and i'm away obviously i am only doing an 8 pot system so i have the brain controller bucket, Minute timer, flood and drain net pots and copper discs plus all the glands for connecting up the buckets and 30 metres of silicon tubing etc plus 400 litre flexi tank which i wont be using.
    So my question is has anyone used one of these iws systems as i need to grow 8 big plants but have always grown these past 5+ years in coco hempies but do have some experience of many types of hydro systems.
    So give me your thoughts folks.

    I use the system.

    Seeing as you dont have the pots,I wouldnt go with the IWS net pots,discs and buckets.

    I would purchase 11 to 15 litre buckets with punch holes that you can get from any hydro store.They have the same hole to fit your gland.

    Dont bother with the stands either waste of space and cash.

    Use just clay pebbles as a medium so you can do frequent floods.

    I never could get on with net pots.

    This method uses more pebbles but I reuse mine so no matter.
