We were asked to discuss our rain collection system so we thought this video would give you ideas on how to move water on your homestead without a pump.
Never water your chickens again!! This system has been in place for 3 years, works AMAZING!!

where you put the pvc 90 on the top barrel replace it with a T and extend it above the top tank and it will vent properly

I think the plastic should be protected from sunlight or it degrades. Good setup youve got.

This suggestion may seem crazy, but it's worked out well for me on many occasions, ... check salvage yards in your area. I have walked in looking for a part for one project and literally found exactly what I needed already made for several projects built better than I could have made for far less money. Seek and you shall find. You'd be amazed at what some people take to a salvage yard and sell for scrap price. Usually a salvage yard charges double scrap price and you can get amazing items.

Those totes are made to stack on top of each other. They interlock with one another

Everything is looking awesome, and the diversity of forage coming up in the turf looks like your bees will be happy! On a different subject, I'm sure you know what azomite is, but have you had a chance to check out Sea-90 ocean mineral fertilizer? If you want your foods to be more nutritious, providing those naturally balanced minerals can boost nutritional value in your foods. The only other mineral supplement you may want to add, is a little magnesium sulfate, (Epsom salt), if that's a source of magnesium your ok with. My personal recommendations are 25% of what ever dosage recommend on the package for plants. I've been diving deep into plant nutrition and soil biology. What's being learned is its not about feeding the plants, it about feeding the soil, which in turn feeds the plants, kinda like the gut flora in our digestive tract. Without the gut bacteria we wouldn't get any absorbable nutrients. Well like when people are healthy they don't get sick, it's being found out, that healthy soil biology can actually prevent plant pests, and disease. When the soil microbes are healthy, the plants are healthy. So pests can't stand the taste, the plants also quickly call in specific predators using chemical signals, and the plans fight off any diseases quickly. (Living Web Farms) channel, put out a webinar video called, (High Bionutrient Crop Production with Dan Kittredge Part 1). It's an hour and a half long, and though I'm not the type to endorse any person, the soil science he describes and what's being learned from his on farm testing is pretty amazing. Well worth the time, if you want hassle free food production, of healthy nutrient rich foods. If your in a hurry, just fast forward through the introduction and skip the last 10 minutes, as the meat of the video is about an hour and ten minutes long. Shalom!

I love the idea! Though I would recommend not to stack the tanks on top of the others. I see the reinforcing cage bend in all directions. Make them stack, but let a separate construction deal with the weight of each and every tank, except for the lowest that probably stands flat on the ground. Also attach valves to be able to turn of flow to different sections. It would make it possible to detach and lift them out individually if they have to be replaced or something fails. I have a similar projects but is going to use an arduino control the venting and pressure within the tanks. That excludes any self pressurized environment, witch might be a bit of a drawback in some cases. I wonder what hapends if the tanks are ful and it continues to rain, what do you do with the excessive water?
