#4 Why a Deep Water Culture System?

Why Deep Water Culture System? 

Number 4) Easy to clean!!! Cleaning the system is always required after each grow to prevent any type of alage or fungus from taking advantage of your "perfect" environment. The Deep Water Culture System is probably the easiest to clean. 

Simply add a couple gallons of warm-hot water to the empty reservoir, add dish soap, the net pots (empty), and the airline tubing, and clean with a medium brush or dish rag. Once fully rinsed, add another 2 gallons of hot water with a 1/4 to 1/2 cup of bleach and sanitize everything to include the air stone. Rinse thoroughly and let dry. 

Too easy!!!
