Benefits Of Growing In The Active Aqua Root Spa 5 Gallon Four Bucket System

It's a super forgiving system, as any feeding or pH mistakes you encounter will not be amplified to the extent they would be in more advanced systems.
You can grow huge, high quality plants very efficiently in this system. Here are some of it's main features:

How To Setup The Aqua Root Spa 5 Gallon Four Bucket Hydroponic System

Reviews Of The Active Aqua Root Spa 5 Gal Bucket System
Check out the praise some growers have shared after growing in this system:
"It's easy to tell when your plants are supercharged. You don't need any fancy meter for that, it's visually apparent. Every time you open the door to your garden your plants almost roar at you! The speed of their development is shocking, even over a single day, they are visibly taller, fuller, bigger, and happier. I love it when my garden is cranking like this. "
Note: Hydroponic Grow Media sold separately: There are so many different types of grow media , and most of them will work just fine with this system. We recommend sticking with clay pebbles, rockwool mini cubes, coco chips, etc.
Because this is a hydroponics system, soil should be avoided. Soil may contain dust, fungi, and bacteria, all of which can contaminate a hydroponics system.

GREAT PRODUCT I WOULD ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND RECOMMEND ! JUST BUY IT! Happy grows!

Great product, super easy to put together. Within 20 minutes you have all your buckets assembled and ready to grow.

Review by Pitcher on 5/8/2017- great product
This system is ready to grow. I added air stones to the system I bought, (just because), the air pump seems to be doing its job just fine. Its been running continuously for about a month now, and, no problems. It came with the 10" mesh pots, and I thought they might be a little big, but, I think that their going to be just fine. All in all, its a great system, and, the shipping was remarkably quick.
