1. I started my pumpkin in peet pellets and then put it in jiffy cardboard pots then transplanted them by washing dirt off of it and filling pellets around roots until it was at the top.

2/3. I have a homage hydroponic system I made with a 36 gallon plastic container I got at Walmart and used a dremel to cut the dimensions of the net container. I got a water pump to pump water up to the roots instead of water filled to the top, it has a air pump for when roots dangle into water I can get them air.

4. Cannot get any pics at this time

5. Air is 64 degrees farenhiet and water temp is unknown

6. The sun was the same.

7. The plant had the same amount of roots but weren't growing like the roots on my other pumpkin plants.

8. I used water from our sink.

9. What do u mean by growing media?

10. The water is continuously all night

11. I use miracle grow root growth formula and It was recemended when I read an article on hydroponic pumpkins online.
