This is a really nice way to diy these systems. I love the idea with the rubber grommet, as it is reducing cost. I also like the nets you put into the buckets, although I could not find any of these to buy. For what it's worth, I'd like to share some different approaches I took in my dutch bucket system, which I personally like: - Fix the supply line to the wood, not the buckets. It makes it easy to swap out buckets. If you put the supply line on the same side as the drain pipe, you can just stick the drip emitter into the pipe. - Use standard irrigation tubing with the little thingies that you can poke a hole into your supply line. Much faster & cheap. - The small 4mm (1/8") micro tubing is sufficient. This will also reduce your problems on longer lines. - I use drip emitters with a little stake, so the line does not fall out on accident and drain your entire reservoir onto the ground. - I use 60/40 coco choir / perlite. That's preference, 100% perlite will word. There are up- and downsides, depending on your crop. - You did not mention your timer settings. I set my timer on 15 min for four times a day. - Finally, for a commercial grow I'd use bato buckets. They are not that expensive and the time savings are worth the extra buck per bucket. Thanks for the video!!

Thank you from heart. Love!

Thanks for another excellent video, Bobby!

Been using dutch buckets for about 10 years. Great system! This was a great presentation-very well done.

run the drill saw backwards on plastic and its cut smooth, no burs.

Thanks for the yummy info and comedy segments... lol, Cheers!

Thanks for sharing this video bro.

Thank you for this video

Please wear a mask when pouring perlite. I find the dust is very heavy. Be careful, Sir. I wish you health

Just found your channel. I love your personality! New subbie here!💚🌿🪴🌱

Thank you ❤️

thanks for the tip

Nice planters

Very good 😊 and super

Great video.

If you put a party cup upside down through that pipe and puncture some holes in it it keeps the roots from growing into your pipe

If you put your grouments in hot water,. They will become soft and easy to install. also, if you cut your PVC pipe on a slight angle it also is much easier to install into the grommets.

Im assuming the watering recirculates? How do/often to clean? What can/not be planted? What I need to install grow lights like I read need to be installed if I were growing things hydroponically indoors? Also are these buckets with perlite only used for starting to process, replanting something that has already sprouted, or from start to finish? I apologize for all the questions have never done anything like this but I want to very badly.

Hunted for hours For 1 person to explain How to do 5 dwc WOW thank you !!! What kit?

Do you no where I can get the netting that goes in the bucket and the pearllite thank you in advance

Do you have a product # or something on the grommets you use for buckets was looking at Grainger and they have way to many in the 3/4 size like how thick between the (flaps?) distance for a watertight seal on the bucket ect.

11:40 Hey you mention keeping algae down. Is the idea that you're putting the tubing down a few inches into the perlite, so that the top layer - exposed to light - stays dry? Algae grows so readily where I am it's insane

Hi, love the channel! I'm from South Africa, and just starting my system now. I have a question I hope you could answer. I see you have a cobble floor for your greenhouse, any specific reason why? I am thinking of a concrete floor for mine, would you advise that or not, and if not why?

I am glad Hansel McDonald left that life of modelling and that Derek Zoolander, to be a farmer. It's healthier.

Have you had a situation where even with the mesh the bucket drain gets clogged from the perlite? Some of mine did when I was setting up my system.

What watering schedule should I program my timers too?

How many buckets on one setup before the flow is not enough at the end?

How long and how often should tomatoes be watered when growing in perlite? I bet once a day for an hour with kingrollers 2 liters per hour? Will it be ok?

So what happened to the 1/2 inch sch 40 pipe ? Lacing that tubing thru all the bucket handles makes it impossible to remove one bucket without unlacing the tubing. You will have algae and wind problems with the perlite if you don't use lids on the buckets. Windy day and greenhouse door suddenly opens, perlite dust storm. Your stand is also not very stable.

smart desigm

Mitre saw is good for cutting piping.

Can I use gravel do I have to use the net with it

Do you run this 24/7 or on a timer

it would be nice to know what size pump he used

I understand this system (flood and drain) is better for tomatoes than a continuous or NFT system. Is this why you are using this system? What else grows better in the system?

What pump did you use?

could you grow grapes in a dutch bucket system?

Hi Ahmed is calling what type of solution that use it

i cant find these 4 gallon square green buckets?

where did you get the netting?

Have a link for your buckets?

Or you can wire tie the hoses to the buckets just drill a hole in the top

is it a problem if the water is left to flow constantly through the buckets

Will the pvc leach toxins inthe water under the sun?

You should be wearing a mask when pouring that dry perlite Mr.

Would like to see the plants in stalled

Why perlite only?

Link to grommets 🙏

Why do you need the tube on the side can’t you just leave the whole

Where can I get a pro life

Will the pvc release toxins into water?

Question ☝️ how do you stop the vegetables from tasting like the solution? I did a hydroponic system with herbs and cherry tomatoes. I noticed the cherry tomatoes tasted just like the feed solution I added in the water. How do you weed that away from the ripened tomatoes, but still have others growing?

why is this better than DWC?

Super but no material

how much perlite does it take to fill all 10 buckets?

Watched your video. Was intrigued. Went to the website. Absolutely worthless. Then I tried to contact you by email. More wasted time. Then I called you. The person who answered was obviously over-indulging in what you actually grow. I put my wallet back.

The algae IS A PROBLEM….over time

I think crop king is cheaper

Perlite is a big NO+NO when it comes to breathing. This is where a face mask is actually highly recommended.

every time I see a farmer drilling holes in pipe I cringe just use fittings its not that much more expensive any you get a professional build quality
