ALIEN V-SYSTEM 8 Pot 4 Row Kit

The ALIEN V-SYSTEM 8 Pot 4 Row Kit offers four flexible layout options for header and pump placement to suit your unique grow space. Whether you prefer positioning the header and pump outside your grow tent or room, or need a more compact setup, this system is designed to adapt.

With advanced components and a modular configuration, this recirculating deep water culture system is easy to assemble and configure. Grow up to 8 plants with maximum efficiency and control using the ALIEN V-SYSTEM—engineered for high-performance results in any environment.

THE ULTIMATE RECIRCULATING DEEP WATER CULTURE SYSTEM
Step into the next generation of hydroponics with the cutting-edge V-SYSTEM™. Engineered to grow massive plants with game-changing innovation, this powerful RDWC system delivers unmatched oxygenation and yield potential—developed over years of research to create the healthiest root zones possible.

Breaking industry norms, the V-SYSTEM™ eliminates the need for air pumps by using advanced Venturi valve technology to oxygenate the nutrient solution—no more clogged airstones, just simple and effective performance.

Its precision-engineered design creates a whirlpool vortex inside each pot, circulating and oxygenating the full volume of nutrient solution—not just around a single airstone. Your plant roots receive optimal oxygen and nutrients, no matter where they grow in the pot.

With ultra-wide 5" customizable return-flow tubing, root blockages are minimized, while the Vortex pump ensures a powerful, even flow—directly injecting each pot with fresh nutrients from the header. Whether you're running 4 pots or 20, every plant receives identical feeding, promoting uniform growth. Plus, direct injection delivers faster pH and nutrient adjustments than standard RDWC setups.

Each 15-gallon / 58-liter pot is built for explosive root growth, supporting enormous plants and record-breaking yields. A sloped base ensures total drainage, so your system always runs on clean, fresh water.

Unlike traditional systems, the JET-STREAM® Vortex pump is mounted outside the header and air-cooled to reduce water temperatures—lowering the risk of root disease and making pump maintenance a breeze.

Join the hydroponic revolution with the V-SYSTEM™ and experience easier, faster, and bigger growth than ever before.

ALIEN V-SYSTEM Hydroponic Kit Set-Up Instructions 

FAQ

Do I need a chiller?

Yes, unless you're keeping your grow room between 65-68°F at all times- which is colder than we would recommend.

What temperature should the nutrient solution be?

The nutrient solution temperature should be maintained between 66-69 °F (19-20 °C) to discourage pathogenic bacteria and fungi while maximizing oxygenation.

What level should the nutrient solution be filled to?

The V-SYSTEM pots have a fill indicator line inside each pot that shows the optimal nutrient solution level. When first placing small plants without dangling roots into the system, the nutrient solution level should be kept slightly higher for a few days to keep the roots wet while they grow down into the pot- simply inspect the roots with the handy inspection lids on the V-POT to know when your plants are ready to take off.

Should the water pump run 24/7?

Yes, the pump should be kept running at all times when plants are in the system, except when completely draining the system for a nutrient change-out. Never run the pump when dry- this damages the pump in the long term.

What if power fails?

In the event of a power failure, the ultra-oxygenated liquid around the plants' roots in the V-Pots provides a safe buffer for a relatively long time; depending on the plants' size (larger plants are thirstier for nutrients and oxygen) you have many hours to a day or more before other measures are required to keep the plants happy without the water flowing. Compared to other media-less hydroponic methodss, recirculating deep water culture (RDWC) systems, as used in the V-SYSTEM, are the most resiliant to power-failure situations.

How frequently are nutrient change-outs needed?

To keep the plants in the freshest, optimally-balanced nutrient solution, change-outs should happen every 7-10 days, or more frequently if pH levels are drifting significantly from from day to day.

Is it necessary to completely drain the whole system for a nutrient change-out?

No; many growers change out only half the nutrient solution each time. If you're having issues with pathogens in your system, a complete drain and replacement is beneficial.

What is the ideal nutrient solution pH?

5.8 to 6.0 is generally ideal, but it is usually best to follow the recommendations of your fertilizer manufacturer- they are usually designing their nutrients for an optimal absorption rate at a specific pH value.

How should pH be adusted?

Don't pour concentrated pH-up or pH-down solutions directly into the header pot as this can shock plants in the system. We recommend diluting the pH-adjustment solution in water (about 30ml / 2 Tablespoons per gallon of water) before slowly adding it to the header pot. Wait 4-5 minutes for it to distribute through the system (with the V-SYSTEM, distribution is much faster than with other RDWC systems!) and test and re-test the pH; once it has stabilized, you can add more adjustment solution if needed and repeat the procedure until the optimal pH has been achieved.

How can the system be completely drained?

Connect a hose- or a pump and hose for even faster drainage- to the convenient drain barbs on the V-SYSTEM's elbows. With the sloped-base V-Pots and patent-pending Dual-Flow™ fittings, all of the nutrient solution in the entire system can be drained.

Can I use organic nutrients with the V-SYSTEM?

While everything about the V-SYSTEM is designed to prevent clogging, organic nutrients, sugars and bacterial additives tend to cause build-up and eventual clogging in the distribution pipes. Mineral or "salt-based" nutrients are recommended over "organic" nutrients for the V-SYSTEM.

Can I expand my V-SYSTEM?

Yes, additional pots and rows can be added later. The solvent-free (glue-free) connections allow the V-SYSTEM to be disassembled and re-assembled in a different configuration, or with additional pots. As the run of pots down each row gets longer, the pump may need to be upgraded and nutrient distribution pipe may need to get larger to handle the additional flow- Contact us with additional questions!

eh

IT's not bad at all but they're other "The Simpsons" comic books are way better. I really recommend "Belly Buster" or "Madness" from The Simpsons collection.

"I very nearly singed my bone!"--Melvin Van Horne
Format: Paperback
Another fun-packed issue of Simpsons Comics. This is the 15th issue I've bought and, with only a couple of exceptions, they are all as funny and entertaining as the television show. I've read them all multiple times. This issue is perfect for the Sideshow Mel fan because he is featured in a short that documents how and why he became Sideshow Mel and he is also the hero in another comic. Jimbo Jones fans will like the short about how he became a bully (he wasn't always one). Dr. Hibbert also has a short feature. Here's what this issue has to offer: "Simpson/Sideshow Sibling Smackdown": Cecil Terwilliger and Lisa have something in common--they can't escape from the shadows of their attention-grubbing older brothers. Can they find a rapport even as one is intent on destroying the other? "A Recipe for Disaster"--Marge needs a new dish for the church social pot luck and tries recipes written by "Springfieldian citizens of questionable character." "Homer's Run"--Bart becomes owner of a demanding falcoln ("I have to do everything for him. What a stupid bird") while Homer signs up for early retirement on the Hawaiian Island Garbagio--which looks (and smells) just like it sounds. "Secret Origin of Sideshow Mel"--The background story of how and why Melvin Van Horne became Krusty's sidekick (you won't believe what Mel's occupation was before he replaced Sideshow Bob). "Day of the Nerd"--Lisa finds out the truth about NASA's exploration of Mars. Meanwhile, the other geeks of Springfield compete in feats of nerdome to win the inheritance of the largest collector of TV/movie&comic book memorabilia. Interesting and unique but jumps around a lot. "Bummer Vacation"--Short about Bart's summer (his batting swing looks totally wrong) and then writing a report on it that Mrs. Krabbapal doesn't believe. "Laughter is the Worst Medicine"--Homer competes in a competitive eating contest, "The Gorge in the Gorge." As Krusty says, "Chewing is for losers! Once you swallow, it's the colon's problem." After eating the final hot dog, something goes horribly wrong. Meanwhile Krusty gets a real doctor's degree instead of an honorary one and sick people start lining up at his door. "Down Home Doctorin' Time with Doctor Julius Hibbert"--Short about Dr. Hibbert as a TV doctor forced to change the style of his show to get better ratings. Ends very abruptly. "The Permanent Record Room!"--Principal Skinner shares some stories (school stories, not war stories). (1) "Pranks But No Pranks"--Bart plays a joke on Groundskeeper Willie which has the janitor believing he's a superhero. (2) "And the Beatings Go On"--The origin of Jimbo Jones. No, he wasn't always a bully. (3) "Truant or False"--Lil' Homie gets hooked up with a young miscreant(who would grow up to become a prominent figure in Springfield). Homer thinks he's learned a valuable lesson from the breif time he spent with this rebelious kid, but perhaps it is the rebel who changes his ways. Sidenote: they wouldn't have had Noiseland Arcade if this comic was accurate. Homer's mother is in this comic and she left the family in 1969. "The Many Faces of Bob"--Sideshow Bob is released from prison but is hit by a Duff Beer truck on his way out and has to undergo plastic surgery. Bart and Lisa try to figure out who Bob could be posing as before he gets his revenge on Bart. "Homer vs. The Raccoon I & II"--I'm not sure why this was divided into two parts; it's just an 8-page short. Anyway, Homer tries to capture a raccoon that has been going through his trash.
