  1. Hi Tikki! I’ve only found your channel recently but am really enjoying it. I just started the Kratky method last year so I love seeing everything you do with that, and with the other methods you use. Keep up the great work!

  2. Thank you. Very well done and inspiring . I just started adding air to my Kratky setups and was pleasantly surprised at the improved results. Your doing a great service to the home growers.

  3. Hello Tikki, i was wondering if it is possible to grow two different veggies in the same deep water container. say cucumber and bell pepper. i see that they make good companions in soil but what about in hydroponics ? thank you

  4. As someone who has been using a DWC system for 40 years; this is a really good video for beginners. The only thing I would add here is you can buy battery powered air pumps in case of a power failure that lasts more then a day. Or you can take some of the water out of the bucket; put it in a gallon milk container; shake it to mix air with the water, and then put it back in the bucket!

  5. Hello, after watching you video, I guess the only questioning I would have is what system do yo recommend for temperature control of the water?
    I loved how you had a link for every other tool needed to get this system going, and I was hoping maybe you even had a link for a reasonably priced temperature control system?
