Description
High-capacity 18-pot RDWC for reliable yields at scale
The Alien RDWC 18 Pot 36L Black Series is a high-performance recirculating deep water culture system for larger indoor grows where consistency across a big crop is everything. Continuously circulating oxygen-rich nutrient solution between all 18 sites holds stable root-zone conditions for fast rooting, vigorous veg and heavy flowering. A 475L system volume keeps pH and EC consistent across every pot, preventing the uneven development, weak roots and nutrient fluctuations that scale badly across large layouts. It fits a minimum footprint of 2.95m x 1.35m or expands to 4.5m x 1.9m, works around 60cm plant centres, and supports a 10-14 day vegetative period before flowering.
Key Benefits
- 475L system volume across 18 pots for high-capacity recirculating culture
- Optional 280L CAMO top-up tank keeps the header pot topped up through its float valve
- JET-STREAM SILENT 2.0 pump: 2150 L/hr at 32W for even distribution across all sites
- Air pump of 80 L/min (not included) keeps dissolved oxygen high for strong roots and flower density
- 60cm plant centres maximise canopy in large tents and dedicated grow rooms
- 10-14 day veg period from the highly oxygenated root zone establishes plants quickly
How to Use
- Position the system to the recommended footprint and plant spacing.
- Connect all pots to the header pot with the supplied pipework; with a Tank option, link the CAMO tank to the header pot's float valve.
- The JET-STREAM SILENT 2.0 pump comes fitted in the header pot to circulate solution.
- Connect a suitable air pump (80 L/min, not included) for strong root-zone aeration.
- Fill with water and add nutrients suitable for RDWC systems.
- Set and maintain pH and EC to the growth stage, from veg through to bloom.
- Keep aeration strong and water temperatures stable, using a chiller if needed, to maximise uptake and yield.
