What Can You Grow in RDWC?

RDWC (Recirculating Deep Water Culture) is one of the most efficient hydroponic systems for growing rooted, fruiting plants. With constant water flow, high oxygen levels, and deep root access, it’s designed to support strong, productive crops — especially in indoor environments.

🌿 Best Plants for RDWC Systems

Growers commonly use RDWC for:

  • Tomatoes

  • Peppers (bell and chili)

  • Strawberries

  • Cucumbers, eggplants, and more

These crops benefit from consistent nutrients and deep oxygenated water — exactly what RDWC delivers.

⚠️ What Not to Grow

RDWC isn’t ideal for:

  • Root vegetables (like carrots or potatoes)

  • Woody herbs that prefer dry cycles

  • Leafy greens (better suited for simpler systems like NFT or DWC)

✅ Why It Works

RDWC systems offer:

  • Bigger yields per plant

  • Faster growth cycles

  • Less fertilizer waste

  • Cleaner root zones

  • Modular upgrades to scale your setup
