Alien RDWC 8 Pot 36L Black Series

The Alien RDWC 8 Pot 36L Black Series is a compact recirculating deep water culture (RDWC) hydroponic system designed for growers who want the speed and performance of RDWC in smaller indoor growing environments. By continuously circulating oxygen-rich nutrient solution between each pot, the system maintains stable root zone conditions that encourage rapid root development, vigorous vegetative growth and heavy flowering during the bloom stage.

With a system volume of 225L and a 120L CAMO® reservoir, growers can maintain stable pH and nutrient levels across the entire hydroponic system, improving nutrient uptake and overall plant health. This consistent environment helps prevent common grow room issues such as uneven plant growth, weak root systems and nutrient fluctuations. The system can be arranged within a minimum footprint of 2.1m × 0.9m or expanded to 3m × 1.17m depending on pipe configuration and spacing. Designed around 60–75cm plant centres, it fits comfortably in medium grow tents or hydroponic grow rooms while still allowing growers to build productive canopies. The highly oxygenated RDWC environment also supports 10–14 day vegetative periods, helping plants establish quickly before entering the flowering stage.

The system is powered by the JET-STREAM™ SILENT 1.5 circulation pump, delivering up to 1350 L/hr while using 23W, ensuring steady nutrient movement throughout the hydroponic system. For effective root oxygenation, the recommended JET-45 air pump provides 45 L/min of airflow at 25W, helping maintain dissolved oxygen levels required for healthy root systems and improved bud density during flowering.

Key Benefits

• Compact RDWC hydroponic system ideal for indoor growing setups
• Recirculating nutrient solution ensures consistent nutrient uptake across all plants
• Encourages rapid root development and vigorous vegetative growth
• Supports dense flowering and improved bud density
• CAMO® reservoir helps stabilise pH and EC levels across the system
• Efficient circulation pump ensures consistent nutrient movement
• High oxygen levels support strong plant health and root systems
• Ideal for grow tents and hydroponic grow rooms

How to Use

1. Position the RDWC system in your grow tent or grow room according to the recommended footprint and plant spacing.

2. Connect all pots using the supplied pipework and link them to the CAMO® reservoir.

3. Install the JET-STREAM™ SILENT 1.5 water pump in the reservoir to circulate nutrient solution throughout the hydroponic system.

4. Connect a suitable air pump (such as the recommended JET-45) to provide constant aeration to the root zones.

5. Fill the reservoir with water and add hydroponic nutrients suitable for RDWC hydroponic systems.

6. Adjust and maintain pH and EC levels according to the plant stage, from vegetative growth through to the bloom stage.

7. Maintain strong aeration and stable water temperatures, using a water chiller where necessary, to maximise nutrient uptake, root development and final yield.

Important: Air pump must be purchased separately.
