I am in zone 8. Have a bato system outdoors. I have 8 buckets per line and a 40 gallon tank. I run24/7 with strainers in each bucket. I use 4oogal per hr. pump continuous recycle. Refill with water and nutrients when needed. System does well and have very few problems. Pumps last about 3 years. Like your videos.
Ooh, good info. I'm zone 6b/7a, and I've got a 40gal tank in the attic (we moved a year ago is the only reason it's empty). Any chance of an update on how that system is doing, since it's been a year since you originally commented?

I have bigger tubs with vermiculite and perlite and have used 40mm pvc pipe with end caps inside the tub with holes drilled into the pipe with fabric glued over the holes and cable ties around the pipe and fabric with two end caps . Cycle the nutrient 15 minutes twice a day with a similar timer to what you have. Also have a vertical tower with 4 levels and also working on dutch bucket katsky with a float valve in each bucket hooked up to a 20 litre container on top of bench that gets nutrient pumped into it and drains at the top when full. Using coco in the net cups of the dutch buckets and have a fabric wick to wick nutrient into the net cup in case nutrient falls too low. One thing I learnt recently which your time lapse video shows is that plants grow at night time.

But it seems as though you have done that yourself and it worked just fine. Good to know, may hafta revise my system and try that. Don't see why it wouldn't work. As usual, you have inspired me again Hoocho, thanks. Great instructional video.

Had these buckets set up with clay balls in net pots and ran them constant. They were a small part of a large system that also had flood and drain and different drip strategies, but worked well. Large pump in a 200l sump, prioritized pump life. Tomatoes in these were wild, growth was crazy, roots would have to be trimmed and maintained after a month or so or else they'd clog the top and flood over or clog the drain pipe. Love this method.

My current small system is 15 minutes on and 45 minutes off. If you have 15 minutes every 4 hours and have such good results that eases my mind on my idea.

I'm also in SEQ, and started a bato bucket type system for growing ginger in pure coco coir. I obviously started knowing bugger all. I figured the coco coir holds a lot of water so i wouldnt need to water too much. I started with 4 minutes of irrigation per hour, and I ended up getting some extreme nutrient burn even though my nutrient was only 1.5 to start off. After a bit of reading and testing the EC of the return water, I figured it was because the water was evaporating and the nutrients were concentrating in the coir. Adjusting to 6 minutes of watering every 30 minutes totally fixed the problem. My main concerns were power consumption of the pump, and pump wear (im using a diaphram pump instead of centrifical), so i wanted the pump to be off as much as possible. I also don't run the pump at night, since I figure the coir can hold water and nutrients over night just fine. Having it off at night also makes it much more amenable to running off solar. After watching this, i might try 20 mins 3 times a day or something and see what happens. Getting the nutrient burn has made me very cautious of watering too little now, and I'm a bit paranoid. Anyway, Its all pretty fun.
@derekgore1268

It is quite likely that the plants were transpiring the water, leaving a more concentrated nutrient in the Coco coir. When it's hot the plants "drink more" & when it's colder, the plants "drink less". In computerised commercial farms, the EC is reduced during the hottest part of the day to reduce plant stress.

I'm in 10b zone started with the 5 gallon Dutch bucket system with the paint strainer in the bucket with perlite. I didn't like the end of season clean up as some of the strainers degraded in the sun and fell apart when trying to remove them with the perlite in them. I switch over to a net pot that fits the 5 gallon bucket perfect and use clay balls as media. wow what a difference in my plants and the benefit of actually lifting the lid to check for a healthy root system is amazing much like the DWC. Hot sun tip if your buckets bake in the sun like mine wrap them with a insulating material or you'll cook your roots. i had a sever blossom end rot that took most of my first summer to figure out no additives helped no one could explain it. then one hot day got home from work early lifted a lid on one of my buckets and bam I hit with what felt like sauna door was opened in my face. I wrapped my buckets with insulated bubble wrap, changed res water and was instantly fixed. In Both styles I've used I run my pump & air stone 24/7 with occasional res dumps.

Another great video Hoocho! The reason for the specific Bato bucket drain connectors is to ensure the removal of stale nutrient from the very bottom of the bucket. This is good practice as the fresh oxygenated nutrient sits on top of the stale nutrient. This was the patented part of the Bato bucket design (patent is now expired), meaning that most home made buckets are not really a Bato bucket design unless they incorporate this same removal of the old nutrient first. To maximise your fruit production, add 20% to 30% Coco coir (or vermiculite) to your perlite. After a full grow, pull the roots out & you will see why your fruit production was maximised over using 100% perlite.

I have a “Flood & Drain” system, which is using Clay Balls as the media type. As for my irrigation timer, I’m using a Smart Switch (Sonoff TH Elite). However, the TH Elite also has a humidity sensor, and I have placed the sensor in the grow media. When the humidity/moisture drops below 15%, the pump is turned on, and as soon as the water gets to the top of the garden bed and the humidity/moisture increases to 35%, the pump turns off. The TH Elite also shows a graph of the humidity/moisture levels over time, and it’s clear that during the day, the irrigation cycles increase, but at night, or when its cool, there are less cycles. Overall, I’ve found this system to work really well, and the Sonoff range isn’t that expensive.

What is your lighting/dark periods and have you experimented with the length of darkness to increase plant growth? And if vegetative growth is occurring during darkness, is root growth occurring during light periods? Also interesting, "Early morning is the best time to take cuttings, because the plant is fully turgid." according to the NC State extension.

I had this problem with a dwc setup that had similar pipe/tubing. I’ve seen another guy that actually lifts his up with the paint strainer bags and trims his roots right at about the height that yours are at right now. In my dwc setup, the quarter inch line was directed through the lid right onto the root ball and in several instances, the roots grew upwards and clogged the pipe! Again, awesome informative video and glad to see successful yields coming through. I will be sure to post my upcoming system in the Facebook group.

Last time I grew in claybles I believe I watered 15 minutes every hour, but on a seperate cycling timer that turns the pump on and off every 30 seconds. Roots eventually clogged the drain and bulged the container so much that it was hard to remove the rootball afterwards. Dont think I'll grow in claybles again, lot of effort to reuse them. My best grow in dutch buckets I used a layer of claybles on the bottom, a few cm higher then the drain. Then I put a piece of porous anti root membrane on top of that and filled the rest with coco . But cant remember how I watered that..

I have the same bato butckets. The company recommends perlite, two 0.5gal/hr emitter with stakes per bucket and for tomatoes, run pump 2 minutes once per hour during daytime/grow lights on. As my tomatoes grow I slowly go from 2 minutes once per hour to 2 minutes every 30 minutes. I’m using 2.4-2.5 EC, which I think is what company recommended, I forgot already. Commercial greenhouse near me uses the same bato sourced from same company. They layer the buckets, about 1.5-2inch layer of perlite, 1-2inch layer of vermiculite then fill with perlite. They have same two 0.5gal/hr emitters per bucket. They run pump for 20 seconds every 20 minutes with ZERO runoff and they don’t even have recirculating system. Their drain goes outside. They run 1.8 EC. They don’t even bother reusing perlite & vermiculite. Each grow they use fresh. It’s a very successful company so I can’t hate on their methods. I’m happy with mine too.

Hi Hoocho Thanks for the great explanation of your system. Just one question if your cycle stop is your tank big enough to store all the water or did I miss the point where your water are stored .

If I understand correctly, Hoocho has a large reservoir that feeds the Tote reservoir when the nutrient level in the Tote drops.

The roots of my tomato plants fill up the buckets, so eventually the nutrient overflows before the plant finishes producing. I normally, run full time with air pump in my nutrient tank. I have had "patio" plants grow six feet tall or more. I am thinking I need to reduce my nutrient solution. Any other ideas?
