Hey guys,
Im new to hydroponics. Just had a thought and wanted to share it with you guys.So here goes......
The picture will speak for itself but I will add some detail.
I will be using a bucket (liters un-known) to grow. It will have a basket in it to support the medium (Any recommendations?) and roots of the plant.
It will have a watering system consisting of:
PVC Reticulation pipe: Around the inside of the bucket, supporting sprinklers and delivering water to them.
Sprinklers: Little garden ones with mist attachment to head.
Submersible pump: In exterior reservoir, pumping water to PVC Pipe.
Overflow Fitting: Allowing all excess water to drain back to reservoir.
Drain Fitting: To drain nutrient soloution.
** The reservoir with have an air pump aerating the water being delivered to the plant **
Lighting will consist of CFL'S for vegetation growth and flowering as I am on a budget.
Will my project work?
Thanks guys.
