Setup and Maintenance

System Setup Steps:

1. Prepare Pots

Attach the necessary fittings to the pots.

2. Connect the System

Use piping to connect the pots and the header pot to establish the recirculating network.

3. Install Air System

Set up the air pump and connect it to the air stones in the pots.

4. Integrate Pumps

Install the water pump(s) for recirculation and chilling (if applicable).

5. Set Up Nutrient Tank

Connect the nutrient tank to the system.

6. Fill the System

Add water to the system.

Maintenance Tips:

  • Maintain water temperature between 18-20°C (64-68°F).
  • Add nutrients to the system and allow for recirculation before testing and adjusting.
  • When planting, use a substrate layer in the net pot, water the cutting, and fill the remaining space with substrate.
  • Fill the system using a hose, ensuring the correct level before turning on the pump.
  • Drain the system as needed by connecting a pipe to the designated fitting.
  • Use preventative solutions to maintain root health and system cleanliness.

FAQs

What is the main advantage of an RDWC system?+

The primary advantage of a Recirculating Deep Water Culture (RDWC) system is the extremely high level of oxygen delivered to the plant roots. This super-oxygenated environment, combined with constant nutrient circulation, promotes explosive root growth, leading to faster vegetative cycles and significantly larger yields compared to other methods.

Is a 36-pot system suitable for beginners?+

While the scale of a 36-pot system is geared towards commercial or very serious growers, the Alien Hydroponics design simplifies the process. The tool-free, glue-free assembly makes setup straightforward. However, managing a grow of this size requires a good understanding of nutrient management and plant care. For those new to hydroponics, a smaller system like the 12-pot RDWC kit might be a more manageable starting point.

What is the difference between the 20L and 36L pot options?+

The main difference is the volume available for root development. The larger 36L (9.5 gallon) pots can support larger plants with more extensive root systems, which can lead to greater yields, especially for long-cycle or very large plant varieties. The 20L (5 gallon) pots are still very effective and create a slightly more compact footprint.

Do I need to buy a separate air pump?+

The system is available with or without a high-powered air pump. If you choose the option 'Without Air Pump', you will need to supply your own pump capable of delivering at least 95.1 gallons per minute (360 liters per minute) to adequately oxygenate all 36 pots.

How does the Dual-Flow™ fitting prevent clogs?+

The patent-pending Dual-Flow™ fittings are oversized (2 inches) and feature unique slots instead of simple holes. This design allows massive root systems to grow around the fittings without blocking the flow of water and nutrients, ensuring the entire system circulates efficiently without clogs.

Can I expand or change the layout of this system later?+

Absolutely. The modular design is a key feature of all Alien RDWC systems. You can easily add more pots, change the spacing, or reconfigure the layout to fit a new space. This flexibility allows the system to grow with your operation.
