Your excitement is contagious. Your friend is happy to grow the vegies, but your excitement boosted her excitement. Thanks for sharing! Happy hydroponicing!
Hoocho budy! Defo the best vid yet. Why ? Because you were showing someone new how to setup NFT and that’s defo what I need to convince my other half what I’m doing is cool! I’ve just finished harvesting some large lettuce from my DIY NFT system. Took about 2 months I think from seedlings ( but I’m in uk so not as good sunshine). I have been watching your vids since covid started and getting super inspired with the hydroponics. Please please please keep going Hoocho, your my inspiration budy!
I love watching you help people setup Hydroponic systems. I would like to see you trying to almost 3D print everything to set one up for someone on a budget.
I normally enjoy your vids, but, well, on this occasion I REALLY enjoyed this vid. Your teaching here is great, Mel was lovely, and this will be a great vid for teaching many people about home hydroponics (especially using this Salad Table system). Awesome effort!
Hoocho, informative and entertaining. Nice kit too. About the float valve for a collapsable bag. 1 3way elbow tee slip to slip to slip 1 3way slip to slip to FIP tee 2 end caps 1 hose adapter lengths of pvc pipe. float valve 2 pieces of pipe for legs, end caps on fit into elbow tee. 1 piece of pipe to the length of your desired water level, set vertical to elbow tee. Add fip tee. Add top length of pipe with hose adapter. Screw float valve into the FIP of the tee. Set whole assembly into the bag. Add your pump as usual. Connect hose to adapter. Done. Maybe some silicone to the joints to make it water tight but can still disassemble.
Now that is one awesome setup. Will definitely check it out. I am someone that will do this. It is like plug and play so cool. Thanks for sharing this with us.
This right here is exactly what I was saying on one of your other vids, when you're building and showing us its great don't get me wrong mate we love it, but seeing you impart this knowledge to someone else and seeing their excitement and yours is priceless, I think you would be a great teacher the kids would love you, just my 2 cents. Thanks so much for sharing and Happy Hydroponicing!
Great content, Hoocho. I am sort of new to hydroponics/aeroponics and am going back and forth between hydroponics towers and these NFT channels only I use piping. I have a horizontal system set up with three layers of tubes with four rows at each level for a total of 108 plants. The water being pumped out of a reservoir up to the top tube and then gravity takes over flowing through the tubing back down to the last tube back into the reservoir. In hotter weather the water gets too warm and then bacteria and algae buildup. I then have to change the water every two weeks or so. I can see now these channel systems are far better than the systems constructed out of tubing. I am also experimenting with a biostimulant developed here in Japan that if used correctly causes the root structure to grow much faster and noticeable differences in length and size of roots. This then allows for the plants to absorb more nutrients.
I don't bother with EC or PH any more. Just top-up the rez with a shot glass of nutrient to 6 litres of water in to a bucket. It's a good average for both Summer & Winter. Good video as always Hoocho!
Saw the girl and thought “omg omg he’s dating!” Alas, just a friend. Great vid! Man Im pumped about ma first hydro setup. Fyi, have u thought how u can capitalise on high veggie costs atm.
Awesome! I'm getting close to building a micro version of this setup myself in my tiny apartment. Might be wishful thinking trying to grow indoors with just an east facing window but I have no outdoor space.... Risking my all carpeted floors may also be foolish but hell you make it look so fun.
That is a really nice kit ,sadly hydroponic systems are still very expensive where I'm from ,I look at your videos because I'm going to have a go at it this year
Yesterday all the parts for my first NFT system got to my home and today you uplaod this, the timing...😂 P.D. your vídeos inspired me to start Hydro! Lots of love from Spain
top video hitting a lot of the points for people wanting to start out. This unit certainly looks the part, and reminds me of the self watering vegepod. Adding a shade cover similar to theirs would certainly add to this.
Awesome Video...loved the part when you said oh ya don't worry I'll edit this out...and it wasn't edited out! Love it! Keep the content coming and if you want to see real winter you're welcome to come visit Canada in March next year...lol
I’m bursting with excitement. We do rent. I just bought some birdies raised beds to put on an existing vege garden area to teach my grandsons about growing food. I had a kidney transplant 8 yrs ago and was told not to play in dirt, so to speak. So I’m trying to delegate as much as I can. But this system looks great. My concern is the cost of electricity for the pump. I wouldn’t be using light. I would be wanting to set up exactly as you have done here. I was looking into hydroponics prior to finding you. Love your videos. I’m in SE QLD
That system looks great. All of the other system that I've looked at look gimmicky. Sure, I could build one myself, but it would take multiple trips to Bunnings, and I wouldn't have instructions. Maintenance is my other concern. Hoocho, please do a vid on minimal maintenance system without fish.
Amazing. These look like new type hydro downspouts. For someone who’s new, where would I find this ? Downspouts are extremely expensive, I love yours and it looks better then PVC piping; I live in a condo and would really prefer to make a more vertical type one using these downspouts you have; From my understanding, when you use a pumping method, you can grow more like fruits and other vegetables then just a standing one; what type of pump is needed for this, Im confused as to which one to get and how powerful…etc. Also, I’ve been using soil mix for seedlings; what do you suggest is the best, rockwool….. Oasis…..etc.
Hi mate I've just ordered this same kit I'm just wondering why you didn't use the net cups? I'm also on the sunshine coast I'm guessing from this video you're close by.
Is the reservoir deigned to have the lid closed? There seems to be a port in the top for a return, and this would reduce evaporation. They might have intended for the rockwool to go inside the net cups
I'm curious, I would suggest perhaps that with the low ec, the plants might pull more nutrients out which may raise the ph, as the nutrient solution clearly buffered the ph down? that might be the reason for the lower dose... which means it'd actually require less res maintenance... which is ideal for newer growers? just a thought?
I wish they shipped to the USA. I checked the company's website and they only ship within Australia. Does anyone know of a similar system available in the USA?
Ohhh so net cup ain't much necessary for horizontal hydroponic! Still new and still researching how to cultivate this NFT system. 😊 This kind of video is really helpful.
I made my own 3d printed tower. I bought 1 kg filament for 153 swedish krona less than 20 dollar. I can print 6 sektions with for plant in each. 2 meter i can have 18 sektions and 72 plants.
Can you weigh in on how important it is (or not) to have proper pvc pipe? I've heard a lot about NSF-61 or NSF-PW pvc pipe - however it seems most systems like these just use regular pvc pipe? (I'm obviously from North America so I might have missed standards that are designated to Australia).
I have a problem with a system that I have to hear it run all day and all night. My electrical bill will be up and the plants will die when a storm stops the electricity. Does the fan have to run 24/7 as well, to get oxygen to the plant? It's all too technical for me. I'm out. I'll just use my little jars and pool noodles.
Hey Hoocho how are you mate? I hope you're well. I just ordered a system from you link in your description. I have found some nutrients that is all in one for hydroponic systems. Some of them are from Bunnings too. What do you think about these, is this a good idea ? Thank you very much for sharing, all the best 🙂
You would think companies would not skimp on the basics of quality (decent to top of the line products and support) versus quality (makes you feel meh)... thinking for the future of more sales with better improvements and more value and bang for selling to others via an auction for items that are low in stock and then use those proceeds to help with those that had natural disaster hit them... to get back on their feet... or giving back to the communities of choice, via contests to stir up more local visitors... Everyone wins... more population growths... more funding for projects... people get to be with those that bring them bliss... Mhmmm, Towards more Blissful moments~!!!
How important is aeration in the res? When you gave a tour of your own system, you mentioned good aeration in your reservoir. But here, it's non-existent.
Your excitement is contagious. Your friend is happy to grow the vegies, but your excitement boosted her excitement. Thanks for sharing! Happy hydroponicing!

I wasn't notified this video was up, so happy I decided to check for new content!! Settling in with a brew to watch, cheers Hoocho 🍻
Great to see you Hoocho, with that vibrant loving attitude you have!
Hallelujah!
So Nice to see u happy again!

Good to see you again, I am so jealous of the weather you guys have. It always seems to summer, I guess you are in Queensland.
Hoocho! I knew something was missing from today! Thanks for the content, it was the best part of my day
Perfect timing. Was gonna set this up in my classroom this week.
Great video! I enjoyed Mel’s guest appearance!
Looking like your doing much better finding your balance I see.
Hope she loves the veggies for a long time.
Great of you to help.
Like others, I loved this video. Watching you teach someone was the best.
Hoocho, informative and entertaining. Nice kit too.
About the float valve for a collapsable bag.

THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR BABY!
Just started watching and I already like what I see. Will keep watching. 😂👍
Great work! That’s a very nice kit. And now happy growing! Awesome video Hoocho.
It took me way too long to realize it’s winter on the Southern Hemisphere

Great vid mate. Looks like a good entry to hydro. Thanks man.

looks like a brilliant kit to get the first one up and running :)
The metal toys in the US were called Erector Set
Nice to see you reaching out to women after everything man. Keep your head up bro
I want to do this down in my basement to enjoy during iowa winters (.5 meters of snow and ice and -20 °C)
Awesome Video...loved the part when you said oh ya don't worry I'll edit this out...and it wasn't edited out! Love it! Keep the content coming and if you want to see real winter you're welcome to come visit Canada in March next year...lol

Great to see giggling and you back on the horse mate
Cheers
We learn so much. Thank you
Bloody cool you're so close too
I wish I could find a similar unit in North America. They all seem to be extreamly expensive commercial units or PVC legged ones.
Very informative video for nft.
Thanks a lot

A technology is proven, when it is transferrable. It is. Thanks for this video again!
By the way, is that a Subi on the last shot? :)
Nice kit
scaled up this would be cool af as a "canna table" lols happy hydroponicing hoocho and all
I love Mel! Great video
You’re the man !
Hi mate I've just ordered this same kit I'm just wondering why you didn't use the net cups? I'm also on the sunshine coast I'm guessing from this video you're close by.
I loved Meccano!
Good vibe in the vid man, nice little system too
Is the reservoir deigned to have the lid closed? There seems to be a port in the top for a return, and this would reduce evaporation. They might have intended for the rockwool to go inside the net cups
Another great video, are you leaving that pump on 24/7 or on a timer? if so how long on and off both summer and winter?
I want to know where to get those grommets and the piece you pushed in. Make life so much easier.
I'm curious, I would suggest perhaps that with the low ec, the plants might pull more nutrients out which may raise the ph, as the nutrient solution clearly buffered the ph down?
that might be the reason for the lower dose... which means it'd actually require less res maintenance... which is ideal for newer growers? just a thought?

Super cool video Hoocho!
Awesome video Mon Ami!
I would love to try it our. Is it available in the U.S.?
Do you have any info on what nutrients to use and quantities?
neat system! if you dont use the net cups / clay pebbles to block light dont you run into algae issues?
Ohhh so net cup ain't much necessary for horizontal hydroponic! Still new and still researching how to cultivate this NFT system. 😊 This kind of video is really helpful.
Thanks mate!
I made my own 3d printed tower. I bought 1 kg filament for 153 swedish krona less than 20 dollar. I can print 6 sektions with for plant in each. 2 meter i can have 18 sektions and 72 plants.
Love the thought. Hope ya r doin better. I'm Mel too.
Follow up vid anytime in the future?
Does rainfall affect the plants or the water
This looks like an amazing setup!
Silly question - do you slant the trays ?
Hoocho, how sturdy is the frame? . Sturdy enought to put wheels on it to move it?
Whoop whoop, top job mate!!
Can you weigh in on how important it is (or not) to have proper pvc pipe? I've heard a lot about NSF-61 or NSF-PW pvc pipe - however it seems most systems like these just use regular pvc pipe? (I'm obviously from North America so I might have missed standards that are designated to Australia).
Si ma come fate per non fare scaldare troppo l'acqua d'estate?
A me ha superato i 30 gradi centigradi
POW ! ... damn hitches
What’s the volume per hour, for the pump? How often does the reservoir have to recycle?
Can you do a follow-up mate
I like the kit where do you get it
hoocho needs to start selling beer koozies!!!
the container walls are going to get red hot in summer and cook the plants sadly. System looks good though
support local always!
Hey mate,
Where can I buy that ph ec tester you're using? Cheers
Don't bugs get in the reservoir?
Dude this awesome
did you say hot water is that needed?
Where can I order a set of the nft?
No shipping to the US :/
Where can I buy this system in USA. Thank yoi

Grouse video!. Cheers man
The link provided = "page not found"
The problem I see with this is that you have to reach too far to the back row. Maybe 3 rows max- about 18".
Hey Hoocho how are you mate? I hope you're well. I just ordered a system from you link in your description. I have found some nutrients that is all in one for hydroponic systems. Some of them are from Bunnings too. What do you think about these, is this a good idea ? Thank you very much for sharing, all the best 🙂
They work fine, but are generally more expensive, I would go the dry stuff.
@@Hoocho thank you very much 🙏
BAKING SODA FOR NEUTRALIZER?
Question to the Commentors, did they get a room..... 30:49

well done :)
do you work at the big green shed Mitch?
Hey Hoocho! If you are not engaged, you shuod marry this girl!
Best wishes!
How important is aeration in the res?
When you gave a tour of your own system, you mentioned good aeration in your reservoir.
But here, it's non-existent.
It’s not hugely important in NFT, since the method provides plenty enough.
Is that Corona 🍺 🙂😋
