PVC Hydroponic System
Posted: Fri Aug 25, 2017 5:57 pm
Question... So I have always wanted to make up one of those diy pvc systems but getting my hands on the pipes are not that easy. So I did the next best thing and bought a kit. All in all ok, but the pipes are only 2 inches and the baskets 1 with a couple rows of pipes and three levels of rows... The system runs constantly and I did add air to to as well as the pumped water.
My huge question is if I take out a couple of the 2" pipes and replaced them with 3 or 4 inch pipes is this going to cause a problem with flow that anyone can see? Do I have to change them all or nothing? I realize I have to adjust connections to change the size but that is easy enough....my big concern is water flow.
I am growing just veggies atm.
Thank you all, and my prayers are with anyone caught up in our current hurricane troubles down in Texas.
