    Not bad... a few things to think about...
    Paint the lid black and wrap or paint the bottom. You already have algae growing in them.
    Dutch buckets are resistant to pump failure and need less time with a pump because they are filled with media and a couple inches of water at the bottom. The plant wicks the water up from there. The setup you have means that the plant has to grow roots down to the bottom and means you have a higher chance of problems overall if the pump fails much like in a PVC style NFT setup.
    Use a net or something to prevent the roots from clogging the spout at the bottom.
    If you have a main line go up and then drip lines level with or down from the main line you need a less powerful pump.
    Dutch Bucket systems can handle two larger plants in each. 4 smaller ones like bush beans

      Good advice on those points. I want to weld up a frame using metal I can scrounge up for free and then use the plastic pipes just for the water part.

      ​@@JemstkSome Hydroponic Shops would have them, or you can improvise and make something similar yourself.
      Even a round 20 litre
      (5 gallon) round tub would do.
      I think it's mostly about water levels, circulation, aeration etc..without watching the video again since now there's an annoying ad which means I need to send this comment or lose it.

    Great Build. I am lowering the support table to maybe 230 cm for easier access sup high toi fruit. WIll add another support each end vertically to straighten - whether it makes a difference I do not know. How have you added the trellis ? Can't wait to build !

  • @qmoonwalker3847

    Great looking, compact and efficient looking system! Like the idea of adjustable emitters. Did you have to do something special to keep the water in the Dutch bucket at the correct level to touch the bottom of the net cups? I guessing you keep the pump going 24/7? How often did you have to add water and nutrients to the supply container? Great video! Thanks so much!!

    • @justinomar9210

    Look at 5:50 when just drilling into the pipes for the drain brackets. The whole frame is sagging. This system is not going to hold up with water, media, and heavy tomatoes. You need x-bracing my friend.

    Great compact and efficient looking system! Like the idea of using adjustable emitters. Did you have to do anything to make sure the water level in the Dutch bucket was at the proper height to touch the bottom of the net cup? Do you have pump running 24/7? I thinking yes. How often did you need to refresh or refill the nutrient tank due to evaporation and plant consumption? Great video! Thank you!

      Hi there !
      The bottom of the netpot won't touch the water the water is level with the elbow and drainage site , fertilizer and water drip on top of the roots , my water pump was running24/7 utill the roots growth and touch the bottom of the bucket after that I started to off it at night .
      Change the water and the fertilizer every 2 weeks , if you notice the water evaporates add more.
