Part 2 - Growth Update - • Dutch Bucket Nutrient ...
I had been growing hydroponics using Kratky method. I love the Kratky being simple, less complex and most of all less cost since it does not require any electricity specially if you are growing outdoor. I'd like to upgrade to Dutch bucket system however this system require electricity to recirculate the nutrients. Since, I am more focus on an economical approach. I like to build a similar system with less cost associated with it. This hydroponic bucket drip system does not need a pump nor power so no electricity consumption will occur. The nutrient flow is through gravity feed system. A little effort you may need to do after 3-7days depending on the size of your reservoir. The nutrient solution need to be transferred back to the main reservoir since this is not a recirculating system. My hope is to make this a free flow system through siphon method. Any ideas and suggestions are welcome & much appreciated.
Thank you! Happy Healing! Keep trying!, Keep going! & Keep growing!
**(Budget $50) Most of the materials were purchased at dollar store & from a 50% Bargain store
Materials Used:
6 pcs - 2 gallon dollar tree bucket
6 pcs - dollar tree plates for cover (optional - I use this since perlite is white, this will prevent the algae growth and a little insulation too)
27 gallon or bigger much better - Reservoir
18 gallon or same size of the reservoir - Drain reservoir *** UPDATE - if you do a daily garden visit and don't mind pouring the drain nutrients 1-2gallon bucket will work. Overnight drain collect up to 1 gallon.
1 pc - 5ft PVC 3/4
3 pcs - 5" PVC 3/4
3 pcs - 2 1/2" PVC 3/4
3 pcs - 90 degree street elbow pipe fittings
1 pc - end cap 3/4
1 pc - Socket PVC Ball valve inline 3/4"
1 can PVC cement/sealant ** UPDATE - this did not work well some of the bucket had some leaks. I suggest use grommets or waterproof sealant)
3 pcs - 2 way barb tee 1/4"
2-3ft - Drip irrigation tubing 1/4"
3 pcs - 0.5 GPH Button Dripper
1 pc - 5ft PVC pipe 1 1/2" (Inflow drainage)
1 pc - End cap 1 1/2"
Teflon tape
Mesh/net

Love the no electric approach since I live off grid on 80 watts of power, love hydroponics too. Great system.
Ooo this is an interesting siphon employed in this video in my next comment
Thank you! I love it too even without the siphon it's easy to manage. I just pour back any nutrient drain in the main reservoir on my morning or evening garden visits. With this set up (6 containers) overnight nutrient drain can collect up to 1 gallon. They are now flowering and bearing fruits. I shall make a video growth update soon.🌱🙂
Hi very good and a very clever chap bravo.A very small 12 volt dc pump can lift water from bottom sump to top reservoir this ca be done by hand to cut down on complicated controls.
A pump around is also good to mix your hydroponic mixture.
I will call this a cascade system bec thats whats happening.
Also filters on inside of pot brilliant. I use a product that they use to waterproof roofs called bidem cloth.
Again im impressed.
Hi im used to those water drippers they come in 4 8 and 24 litres per hour good to use as they do not need taps to reg flow.
For anyone with lousy soil , this would be the perfect cheap alternative to trucking in tons of compost at once etc this would give you time to ammend the soil at your own pace. Also the low amount of water can be dumped onto the soil periodically when changing the resovoir water to add fresh nutrients. (due to evaporation, or depleated/consumed nutrients).
Trying to develop a Complete nutrient from free souces such as urine, bokashi/swamp tea leachate and wood ash.
I somehow think the buckets and gear would cost more than trucking in tons of soil" if you were too do it on a big scale. Considering how cheap trucking in soil is. I paid a few hundred dollars for a dump truck full of crushed rock, delivery and all about 8 years ago.
I am experimenting with JADAM hydroponics
Awesome! Thank you for making this video and demonstrating how you did it.
You’re welcome! Happy to share🌱😊
The rubber cement used has toxic chemicals in it. Wouldn't that flow over into the growing medium and into the roots?
This is fabulous!!!! I have a DIY NFT system that I made with pvc that I grow all my 52 heads of lettuce in, and I use a dwc to grow my peppers in but I’d love something like this! I grow indoors only. 🥰🇨🇦❤️
Thank you! I am loving this set up and already planning to add another 6 bucket for my next season outdoors.😍 Yes, this is great for small space too. An area of 7ft in length and 3 ft wide is more than enough. I'll be moving this indoors as the cool weather approaches. 🌱💜
Is there any advantage to this Dutch Bucket drip system over the Kratky method? Why use this as opposed to simply using the Kratky method?
Hello. What drill bit size you use to drill the holes on the 5ft 3/4 pvc pipes? Thank you
Good job...Good ideas.. 😊
Hi great idea. I intend to use this system with a 12 volt dc pump powered from a battery to return the water from the sump back to the reservoire and add hydroponik powder to supply tank.
New subscriber. Lots of great videos. Excited to watch, learn and try new gardening techniques.
Thank you! LET’S GROW!🌱💜
Love it! Can’t wait to see more.
Woow nmn this great video kapatid galing nmn 👍👍👍♥️
Thank you kapatid!💜
This looks like a great ideaI can't wait to try it but shouldn't you have used **FOOD SAFE** containers so you don't poison your food and thus yourself ?
If i were to build for 18 buckets in a 4m long dutch bucket drip system, how many Liters of water soln do I need to fill the reservoir?
Awesome ideas. Thanks so much for sharing.
You’re welcome. Happy to share🌱😊
Very useful and interesting
This is absolutely awesome system. Can you share how big the reservoir you used, and how much water outflowing in 24 hours?
Thank you! The reservoir is 18 gallons and the overnight drain can collect up to 1 gallon. I just use a gallon flower pot and pour it back on my daily garden visit either morning or evening. If you have a bigger drain reservoir this can be done from 3-5days. I'm not sure if you've seen this, you might be interested to see the growth update using this system. ua-cam.com/video/PlaDpMeTAJw/v-deo.html . Keep growing!🌱🙂
@@healinghobbies thanks, your plants grow well.
....and make one during heavy rainfall...
I'm trying to figure out my outside set up this year and I'm not sure which direction it should be facing or if it should be in full sun with shade cloth around and over it. Can you help please
It depends on what vegetables you are going to grow. I would suggest if you have an area facing south, that would be best, especially with fruit vegs. Hope this helps🌱😊
Which nutrients is used..
New subscriber.. ❤👍
Wow thanks for sharing 💝
You're welcome! Happy to share🌱🙂
I love the video about the water is it open 24 hours?
Yes it’s open and the outflow is approximately 5-6gallons in 24hrs
so what happens when the top tank is empty?? this means you have to be on attendance to pump the bottom container to the top one, by manual or electric pumping, not so reliable in my books, also the idea has some merits
how do you get the water from the bottom reservoir back to the top one?
This set up may require a little effort depending on the size of your reservoir after 3-7days. The nutrient solution need to be manually transferred back to the main reservoir since this is not a recirculating system. or usually I do it in my morning/evening garden visits.🌱🙂
How do you call that coiled wire attached to the pipe?
It's a drip irrigation tubing🌱🙂
How do you transfer nutrient from lower collecting reservoir to the upper one ? manually or use a pump ?
Are these slow drips 24x7 enough to keep the bucket moist in the peak of summer ?
No pump used in this system. One of the reason I made this gravity feed system is to avoid using any pump or any use of power specially if gardening off grid or just trying to minimize cost. It's transferred back manually. I love to visit the garden every morning or evening to check my plants so any nutrient on the drain container, I pour it back to the main reservoir. With this set up, overnight drain can collect around 1 gallon or if daily garden visit is a bit tasking, this can be done every after 3-5days depending on the size of your drain reservoir. Yes, the nutrient drip is 24/7. The importance of installing the drain pipe/faucet at least 2" gap between the bottom of growing container is to hold at least 1liter nutrients reserve. This will provide sufficient amount to feed the plants in summer or in case there is some drip blockage. I hope this helps🌱🙂
@@healinghobbies Thanks a lot for taking time to answer my query. I am now inspired to follow your arrangement and giving up on my obsession to automate everything , which doesn't make sense for a backyard small scale garden. Pouring in the collected nutrient back to the reservoir manually will force me to take a stroll in my garden and will be a good therapeutic exercise too.
You’re welcome! Happy to share. It’s worth a try. Gardening indeed is very therapeutic🌱😊. If in the long run you’d prefer to recirculate the system, It can easily be upgraded to just put in the pump. Here I just put up a new video on growth update that you might be interested to check out ua-cam.com/video/PlaDpMeTAJw/v-deo.html. Thank you and keep growing!🌱😊
I have seen some solar power pumps used for bird bath construction. It might be an option for "off grid" pump if needed for small volume.
@@Metqa those can actually be quite good but often only work in full sun. I had one fot pumping water between IBCs as I had one plumbed in and the rest just standard and would keep pumping to the one connected to the garden irrigation. Over winter they would all refill with rainwater but I had to move the house between them every time the next one was close to full.
Love it
Thank you💜
How the water go back into the black tub ?
my question too
1:11 what kind of soder gun are you using?
That was a leg from a broken grill. It was perfect fit for 3/4 pipe. Heat it in the stove the use to make the hole.🌱😊
SHOULD USE A WHITE MARKER .
Costly
What drip valves did you use?
Its a 1/4 drip valve from a pet supply shop use for aquariums and a 1/2 GPH button dripper.
That's gonna leak
7 minutes plus wasted
lol thnks
lol - or you can get a 1inch hole saw w a rubber grommet and skip the bible music. at least yer trying.
This is not hydroponic, you're plant roots are in soil.
Cocopeat and perlite mix not soil which are commonly use as hydroponic growing medium.
Do you have a Facebook page i can message? Im interested in your DIY po
