Hello, scrutinize your project and commend them for the success I'm sure that you never been easier! I start my project which is also educational in the sense collects information from the best hydroponics seers, and it prilagame.Shte be happy to join me and my project. Thanks in advance!

hey man, you actually in bend? getting ready to switch from bins to individual buckets...could use some advice. i could hear ziggy marley booming out my back window this evening...

hey there bendbrewer. i was wondering if u can explain the way the water drains back into the reservoir from the buckets after they fill? i cant connect the dots on how the water in the buckets, connected to each other and then to the res, can drain it back into the res?

Well there are different types of systems. If I had the space I would just use a simple ebb and flow system. Reservoir under a flood table that floods a few times a day and drains back with the help of gravity. I went with a recirculating deep water culture (rdwc) as I have limited vertical space and with the buckets on the floor I keep my plants as low as possible.

Check out this thread and take a look at some of the photos.

Basically I have a large reservoir that acts as a control. The buckets are connected to the reservoir near the very bottom of the buckets. A 300 gph pump in the reservoir pumps water to feeder rings at the base of each plant. As the water lowers in the reservoir and rises in the buckets, gravity forces the water out of the buckets and back to the reservoir. This runs 24/7.

Where are you in the process?

Hello there. I saw in a thread that you like to build hydroystems. Was wondering if you'd be kind enough to send me a list of things id need as well as how to do it.
