Who This Is For
- You are moving to a recirculating setup because your current drain-to-waste system wastes too much nutrient solution.
- You are switching to 2 inch piping because your aggressive root systems keep clogging standard 1 inch drain lines.
- You are opting for silver pots because your reservoir temps climb too high in the afternoon and stress your crop.
What We Found
- We noticed the silver polymer actually keeps the reservoir several degrees cooler than standard black plastic pots.
- Those 2 inch Dual Flow fittings are huge, making it nearly impossible for roots to block the return lines.
- The threaded fittings allow you to break the whole system down for a deep clean without cutting a single pipe.
What Users Say
- Growers who switched to these air rings say their veg cycles are noticeably shorter than with traditional air stones.
- Users who expanded their rooms say the modular pipes made it easy to add more pots without buying a whole new kit.

FAQs
A Recirculating Deep Water Culture (RDWC) system constantly circulates a highly-oxygenated nutrient solution through the plant's root zone. This leads to faster nutrient uptake, explosive root growth, and significantly larger yields compared to static DWC or soil-based cultivation.
No, the Alien Hydroponics RDWC system is designed for easy, tool-free assembly. The fittings are threaded and the pipes snap on, so no gluing is required. This makes setup, reconfiguration, and cleaning much simpler than traditional systems.
The Alien RDWC system incorporates several unique features, including JET-STREAM A.I.R.™ rings for superior oxygenation and patent-pending Dual-Flow™ fittings that are oversized to prevent root clogging. These are key differences from other DWC hydroponics setups, leading to more reliable performance and healthier plants.
Absolutely. The system is completely modular, so you can easily add more pots or explore different configurations to fit a larger space, such as the 12 Pot 3 Row kit.
For the 9-pot system, you will need to supply an air pump capable of delivering a minimum of 23.8 gallons per minute (90 liters per minute) to ensure adequate oxygenation for all pots.
Yes, we offer a wide range of solutions to suit any grower. This includes the innovative Alien Hydroponics V-System which uses a silent venturi pump, as well as traditional ebb & flow systems.
