you'll be happier with 5 gallons and your yield will be much grader buckets only cost $2.34 at lowes.7-8 zips is very impressive on this system hands down bro you know your shit then.keep it green and clean

hey no problem i'll get some pics today while I'm at work. but to also answer your question i put them in the outer bucket and then the inner bucket rest's on the pvc raising the inner bucket from the outer. i ussed 2 inch pvc cut 3inch's long.
hey thanks good brown. not to many abandond warehouses around these parts everyone's already growing in them lol

Im curious.... it seems like it would take more water to fill the buckets that way. I run a 48 site and im concerned if I raise the buckets with the pvc the rez would not be able to supply enough water to all 48. What are your thoughts?
Thanks again bro.
Thanks again bro.

You will have to calculate your;
1) Water loss (evaportation, transpiration, seepage, ect.) on a daily basis. That is where a auto-top off float valve becomes handy.
2) Total amount of water it takes to fill the system. I use a little under a gallon per 2-gal bucket w Hydroton.
3) Amount of water returned to res. Related to #1.
If you are using a 50 gal res on 48 sites and you raise the bucket 3 inches, you will most definately need more water if you go for the same fill level on the inner bucket (assuming you don't already fill to the top of the outer bucket).
However, the roots will displace water when the mat becomes dense enough.
If you go for the same fill level in realtion to the outer bucket, then it shouldn't change things too much.

i agree with you rednick.this will mean the the res will have to be top off every 12 hours when plants are mature and the top of the plants roots will not be takeing in water.i will post a system i put together so you can get an idea of what i was geting at.

hey guy's how's it growing. well it's already been another week so hears another small update. well my flower room is doing great were now 3 weeks into flower as of yesterday and thes baby's are really starting to swell up. my first veg room is doing awsome and these girls are really starting to grow up fast. 2 more weeks and we'll start flowering this room. my 3rd room is doing good and a couple of the royal hawiians are starting to take off. it seems to take about a week for my new clones to adapt to the ebbandgrow and then they take off real good. I'm waiting for my electrician to come back over and finish up some last minute work in the new biulding and we should have it up and running by friday. well hears some new pics to enjoy.
hears my veg room a couple of weeks in
hears a couple royal hawiians we put in the new room less than a week ago.
hear a shot of the pvc we put into the buckets to raise them up and hears a pic of the inner bucket raised up from the outer bucket.

RM everything is looking fantastic, what are you using to trim all that weight? Are you using friends and fam (which you might have mentioned) or are you using an automatic trimmer??
