Thank you. That was the simplest description and the lowest cost Hydroponic system set Up I have seen. We modify a few things here by using RICE HULLS and manually add Hydroponic Solution to our buckets several times a day. It only takes a few minutes. Watching from the Philippines and sharing with everyone I know. Thanks again 😊

I know this video is a year old but you should try adding some kind of enzyme to your rez to help break down all those dead roots that you didn't remove from the perlite and paint strainer bag. I would also run bleach water through the system after each run to sterilize everything. Obviously you won't be able to do this if you still have plants growing in some of the buckets but you can always add enzymes at any point in time. It will not hurt the plants at all.

To help me further, would be able to walk me through, or send me a link that shows how this setup was set up, including what every part of the system does? Also, I would like to know what kind of medium is used to grow the seedlings before they are transferred and planted in the hydroponics system. Lastly, can you walk through, or send me a link if you have one that discusses nutrients? Thanks heaps!

Hi, I have another video on my channel that overviews the entire system. Besides that, there are other videos on KZitem that we used to learn about the system. We bought the seedlings as-is and they appear to be growing in some sort of soil. We removed them from this medium to plant them in the perlite. The overview video on my channel that I mentioned earlier talks a little bit about nutrients, but to be honest, I do not know all that there is to know about nutrients. Link to video: kzitem.info/news/bejne/xol-tWyhgYFyhW0 Best of luck!
