The Nutrient Film Technique (NFT) is perhaps the most reliable and popular hydroponic method. The fundamentals are very easy to get your head around. The most important feature of NFT hydroponics is that plant roots are in direct contact with flowing nutrient solution.Mar 2, 2020

What is RDWC growing?
RDWC Application Recirculating Deep Water Culture is a method used to grow plants with roots submerged in a highly oxygenated nutrient solution. By using the ALIEN® RDWC hydroponic system, you can optimise maximum growth potential. The super oxygenated nutrient solution is constantly recirculating around the system.
How do you maintain RDWC?
Maintain vegetative humidity levels between 60-70% (daytime) / 45-60% (nighttime) and flowering humidity levels between 40-60% (daytime) / 30-40% (nighttime).

How does an under current system work?
Under Current® Under Current® RDWC hydroponics systems utilize negative water pressure to recirculate oxygenated nutrient solution through the plant's root zone. This high-performance water culture system is unmatched in productivity, quality, layout versatility and ease of use.
How do RDWC systems work?
RDWC systems have a series of containers with grow sites that hold netted pots, growing medium, and plants. Air also circulates through the system along with the water and nutrients in the same manner. Each plant in the system soaks up the necessary amount of water, air, and nutrients needed to grow and thrive.

Is RDWC better than DWC?
Much like it's cousin, the bubble bucket, the recirculating deep water culture system (RDWC, better known as DWC) quickly grows plants in a near ideal environment. The main difference is that the system supports multiple sites and allows you to grow a much larger crop of the same plant with far easier maintenance.
How do you grow RDWC?
- Rinse grow rocks/stones thoroughly before use.
- Fill the net pot to a 2” depth with rocks/ stones.
- Rest bare root cutting on rocks/stones and gently fill remaining space up to 1” from the top lip of the net pot.
- Adjust system water level to the top of root crown.
How does a recirculating hydroponic system work?
In a recirculating hydroponic system, water is continuously recaptured and recirculated to the plants, with nutrients injected as needed (as determined by frequent monitoring). Water loss and extraneous costs are mitigated, especially when compared to traditional soil-based agriculture.
How do I make a simple DWC hydroponic system?
A DIY hydroponic DWC is very easy to design. All you need is a 3 ½ gallon (13 l.) bucket, 10-inch (25 cm.) net pot, an air pump, air tubing, an air stone, some rockwool, and some expanding clay growing medium or the growing media of your choice.Dec 4, 2020

What do I need for DWC?
- Water/nutrient reservoir (shared or individually for each plant)
- DWC net pots to hold your plants.
- Hydroponic nutrients.
- Air pump (and air stones) for the aeration of your nutrient water.
