Homend DWC Deep Water Culture Hydroponic System Growing Kit, Medium Size w/Airstone, 11 Plant Sites (Holes) Bucket, Air Pump, Rockwool - Best Indoor Herb Garden for Lettuce, Mint, Parsley (11 Sites)

I didn't expect much for the price but what I got was a surprisingly functional hydroponic system that is better than the units I make myself. The photos show approximately one weeks growth in Masterblend Tomato and Vegetable nutrients. I haven't been using an air stone in most of my units but will probably switch now that I've seen how well it works. The air being supplied by the pump keeps the plant roots in oxygen and adds a small amount of positive pressure to the reservoir which keeps the unit mostly algae free. The pictures prove plants definitely love it.The directions leave a lot to your imagination and, even though the fluid level indicator is mostly useless, you can't leave it out due to the pre-drilled hole for it. I would skip using the included rockwool because it's a magnet for algae. Start your seeds in a regular seed starting tray and then rinse the roots off and transfer them to the hydroponic system. Use the included clay pebbles to stabilize the plants in the net cups. You will be amazed at how fast they grow. it takes them a day to stabilize in the new environment and then explosive growth.Having had such good luck with this unit I am going to try some other pre-made systems available, including a nutrient flow system for larger plants. If you want to dip your toe in hydroponics, this is a great starter unit. Make sure you have plenty of light and you can grow greens inside all year. Great science project if you have kids. I highly recommend this product.

Very reasonable for the price, my unit has held up well. The supplied rockwool is a joke and they should be ashamed. Overall good product for what I needed.

All I can say is, after you read the description, it’s going to be a lot smaller than you think, literally the size of a shoe box, would not host 11 plants in this cheaply made plastic box, the air stone and pump look like it came from the local dollar store on sale, 10/10 would not buy again waiting for the return sticker to send this POS back

Perfect for anyone just starting with hydroponics. It’s small not one of the larger kits.

This hydroponic system is very small

It arrived without an instruction how to put it together. I have no clue how to put it togetherand to get it started.

Only complaint is it would be nice to have instructions on how to set it up and recommendations on what to grow. Thank goodness for YouTube! I am just planning on trying to grow lettuce in it. Wish me luck!

Net cups are so small; this makes the kit a toy. you can not even place two medium-size clay pebbles

El plastico de la caja es de muy mala calidad, la tapa esta doblada, asi es que no le llega la misma agua a todas las plantas, la bomba bastante bien y silenciosa, el ensamble en general es complicado, se necesita algo para hacer perforaciones en la caja para poder poner el detector de nivel.
