Thanks for sharing the info. Using your info as a starting point I built two 18 gallon systems for peppers and lettuce and a 5 gallon system for cucumbers. Everything is growing great as of week

Great video, thanks for making/posting it. Only request is that a list of the items be added to the description. That'd help anyone wanting to copy/paste text into a shopping list.
My favorite thing about You Tube. I'll start with deliberate research to get a question answered - 3 hours later I'm watching weirdhair guy from the 'other' history channel say "it's aliens!" every way EXCEPT "It's aliens!"
@Dizzinz I just finished filming the different lights that I use at home and in my classroom and I will be adding a narration that will explain the pros and cons of each light. Most of the supplies can be found at your local hardware store in the underground sprinkler section. You can also google horticultural source and buy everything from them. They are a wholesaler who sells to the public and they have everything.
@slparenteau Thank you! I used 3" net pots for lettuce and trust me it is large enough. 5" is better suited for large plants like tomatoes and swiss chard. When fully grown swiss chard will have massive stems and roots. They were so big that they actually bent and broke my 3" net cups. I am really enjoying my new rail system for lettuce as i spaced out the grow spots by 8.5" each and this is allowing enough room for massive heads of lettuce. I will be posting videos of this very soon.
Thank you soooo much to share this information!! I´m really looking forward to build my hydroponic garden here in Brazil. With your videos it will become easier to achieve!! =D
@SuperStasam The rear holes are to feed air hose lines through so that they can hook up to the air stones. The tap is only for draining water so that the roots don't get disturbed, the hole for the tap acts just as a holder. You could also drill two small holes and use wire to suspend the drain hose/tap.
Thanks for the video. I just moved into a nice big duplex but we're the upstairs unit so we don't have any outside space that's not shared. I'm going to think about using your video to design a few indoor garden spots. I'd love fresh access to some veggies
@MrPeacefarmer I have never grown anything without a netpot before and personally, I would not want to submerge too much of my plant into water. In fact, I prefer having most of my roots sitting out of the water and having a reservoir separated from the plants. The method I show in this video works very well and is one of the easiest setups, but I still prefer having one reservoir feeding several plants so that my roots are not sitting in a lot of water.
@SHIVITA31 You can use trays with seeds that sprout quickly. Some seeds can take up to 7-14 days to sprout and they will rot if left in too much water. For the longer sprouting seeds I now use coffee filters that I keep wet.
@yahmana You can use just a water pump in a separate reservoir that pumps the water to a separate container and drains the water back to the reservoir. The idea hear would be that the roots would be suspended in a lot of air getting which will allow them to get enough oxygen without an air pump.
I really enjoyed your video and will be using it to make my own setup. What size net pots did you use. I looked at 3 inch pots for lettuce but they looked to small and decided to go with 5 inch potd
i really like your video but please tell me why you make 2 holes at the rear of the box and put tap in one hole only?The air escape from the upper hole.
Anyone have a link in where to get the connectors he attached to the pump riser for spaghetti drip lines ? I’ve found multiple sprayers but no tapping connectors ?
the deep water bucket using an air bubble system sure looks a heck of a lot easier than this Does this system with the water pump suppose to work better?
in this system the water pump is a complete waste of time, this system you would simply cut the holes, put the pots in, fill the tub to within 3 inches of the pots and then stick the airline on the stones, put the stones in the water, turn on the air pump and then connect the other end of the air line to the pump and watch the bubbles flow, that's it you are done. get a 2nd tub and pop the lid with plants on it when you need to empty and clean, put the airstones in.
So do is a "dripper" water dispersion system the same - or better - than a sprayer - where the water is actually aerated + sprayed on the roots? And do the drippers make this a aeroponic unit - or hydroponic??
Thanks for the video. Just wondering if there is a specific name for that orange hose hole punch tool you're using and where can I find one? Seems like it will come in handy for a few projects I have. Thanks!
Hi Warren, your information session was so helpful. I cant wait to start my own system. I have a quick question? I sprout all the time quinoa seeds and mung beans just to eat and put on my smoothies and salads. I use a sprouter tray. Could I also use this tray instead of the paper towell to do spinach and other greens before putting them in the rock wall? Thanks,
any plant store , fred myers, bymart in dore garden depot ,or the water spout , those r the places I go 2 in Oregon I don't know what state ur in , but any plant store will have them , and they have a easyer way then what hes doing , his is fine , but they make way better ways to connect the water. lines to the water source and pots , I do all my cloning that way hydro style , and I always use dirt4 growing, plants like dirt and cocoa
@WyattForMayor I am not sure what the name of it is, but I bought it at my local hydroponic store called quickgrow in Calgary Canada. Next time I am over there I will ask them if it has a name.... I use it a lot!!!
Thank you for the great video! Could you tell how much was overall to build one? I found hydroponic things are quite expensive. I was wondering if these containers are BPA and other toxic chemical free containers. I was also wondering if you have developed a method to grow all your veggies organic in them? I am really interested in building one but only if I could grow veggies organic in them.
Please could you explain to me why a dutch bucket RDWC system is easier to build then a simpler DWC? For a DWC you need a smaller set of tools too - a saw cup for the net pots, a saw and a drill bit for the air line - hack, it doesn't even take a pump and feed system for a DWC. So RDWCs always more complicated to build as it takes so sort of pump for the re-circulation, more tools, grommets, connectors and etc - the lone plus side of RDWC is the easier operation once it is running.
Hydroponics is a great system but it have some disadvantage, you will need to shop for some "plant food", nutrition and supplements that can be high-priced. Before setting up any hydroponics system, you should check out the advantage of aquaponics system, which could automate 95% of work.
Not certain about the points made but ,if anyone else is searching for diy aquaponics system plans try Tarbetti Amazing Aquaponics Tutor ( search on google ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my brother in law got great success with it.

I like your working precision.
great video mate. good explanations on all of the various components to build this system. thanks!

Here in america hydroponic kits cost at least $100 for a small starter. A self made can be around $20 if you know where to shop.
I'm doing a Hydroponics System for my Senior Project. I will be using something close to this idea so many thanks @Boiling Frog Productions

Nice.Good correct info.Well made Thumbs UP....
I wish you would have shown how you put the drain plug in!
this is the real deal it works im on my frist plant thanks homie for the info need more i got sum ?
Nice project
@BulletSponge021
Most parts can be found in the plumbing section of a hardware store and the pumps can be found at pet stores.
I really enjoyed your video and will be using it to make my own setup. What size net pots did you use. I looked at 3 inch pots for lettuce but they looked to small and decided to go with 5 inch potd
i really like your video but please tell me why you make 2 holes at the rear of the box and put tap in one hole only?The air escape from the upper hole.
@brianl2px20000
The tube sizes are 1/2" you could also use 3/4 if you wanted to. 1/4" overtime clogs to easy.
You don't have to have one ... it's a matter of ease of use ... it can be drained without picking up a big tub of water.
Anyone have a link in where to get the connectors he attached to the pump riser for spaghetti drip lines ? I’ve found multiple sprayers but no tapping connectors ?
Great video but where do you get the supplies and there is no info on the lights needed .
Do you have a List with exact names of all the Things we need, like those cables for the air and the exact pump
the deep water bucket using an air bubble system sure looks a heck of a lot easier than this Does this system with the water pump suppose to work better?
Superman DK

get a 2nd tub and pop the lid with plants on it when you need to empty and clean, put the airstones in.
So do is a "dripper" water dispersion system the same - or better - than a sprayer - where the water is actually aerated + sprayed on the roots?
And do the drippers make this a aeroponic unit - or hydroponic??
Where did you purchase the drippers? Is there a code name for finding them online? Thanks for the great video.
Thanks for the video. Just wondering if there is a specific name for that orange hose hole punch tool you're using and where can I find one? Seems like it will come in handy for a few projects I have. Thanks!
great video ...great info....thanks..
@grower912
Thanks for the compliments, I appreciate it!
good thing the teeth in the hole saw weren't super grabby on the plastic.. might have twisted your wrist up pretty badly .. ask me how i know..
I like the chakra colors in the back;)
Hi Warren,
your information session was so helpful. I cant wait to start my own system. I have a quick question? I sprout all the time quinoa seeds and mung beans just to eat and put on my smoothies and salads. I use a sprouter tray. Could I also use this tray instead of the paper towell to do spinach and other greens before putting them in the rock wall?
Thanks,
Thanks for your prompt reply. I look forward to your new video. What type of nutrients did you use for your lettuce?
What is the drain valve called ive been looking everywhere online and cant seem to find it
@MrTonyd630
I mostly use dual air pumps as having extra oxygen hitting the roots is the way to go! I believe they use about 8watts.
any plant store , fred myers, bymart in dore garden depot ,or the water spout , those r the places I go 2 in Oregon I don't know what state ur in , but any plant store will have them , and they have a easyer way then what hes doing , his is fine , but they make way better ways to connect the water. lines to the water source and pots , I do all my cloning that way hydro style , and I always use dirt4 growing, plants like dirt and cocoa
this is a good video but i would have liked to know why these things are used. why so meany hoses for that small tote?
did i just here you put emphasis on the "H" in "Herbs"?
that drip emitter you created with the water pump, is it necessary? or can i do without??
@WyattForMayor
I am not sure what the name of it is, but I bought it at my local hydroponic store called quickgrow in Calgary Canada. Next time I am over there I will ask them if it has a name.... I use it a lot!!!
Good instructional clip.
whats the tool that you punched the 6 holes in with called Also gr8 video thanks
Thank you for the great video! Could you tell how much was overall to build one? I found hydroponic things are quite expensive. I was wondering if these containers are BPA and other toxic chemical free containers. I was also wondering if you have developed a method to grow all your veggies organic in them? I am really interested in building one but only if I could grow veggies organic in them.
look easy to set up , where do you buy the supplies? is it at the fish store for the pump?
do you have a link for the materials used with the exception of the Tote? I know we can get those at walmart
any concern about the toxins leaching from the plastic tub?
@slparenteau
They also make 3.5 and 3.75 inch net pots.
Just sayin'.
I just want to know that during 24 hr.for how much time I run d air pump n water pump for their proper supply of air n water to d plant
@W8MK Where and what is the name of the kit you and where can i get it from?
i dont understand why you need a drain tube on the side when you only have one reservoir
nice design...how many liter per hour water pump you using?
is that hole saw that your using for the drill?
are those 3 inch pots enough for a weed plants entire life span all the way to harvest
Liked commented and subscribed nice work man thanks!
Could you list the supplies you used?
where do you get your hydroponic items?
how big is the water pump ?
Where do I buy hoses and connectors from ?
7:38 that hand.
Where can i buy the drain valves? And whats the real name for em?
yo bfp whats the thing you used with the drain hose?
What's the total cost of all the supplies?
Please tell me then name of the orange tool you used to punch holes in the water supply tube.
nozzle installation tool/multi installation tool - shops that sell those parts and tubes usually stock them, same goes for hydro stores
A humidity sensor with Arduino could be great!
@w8mk What size hole saw u use for the 3" net pots
I'm sorry I'm gonna stick with MPH gardeners his is much simple for a female to do thanks
+frederica broadney surfmonkeycoconuts gt a pretty easy system too

@damirexus
If you shop around under 45.00
where can I get a stop?
where did you buy your stuff??
Can I put it outside?
what is price of all this stuff???
The video should be named like " How to use prepared hydroponic system kit "
How much was all that though?
w8mk can you make me a list of the items.
to Build A Hydroponic System That you make in is video.....
Hydroponics is a great system but it have some disadvantage, you will need to shop for some "plant food", nutrition and supplements that can be high-priced. Before setting up any hydroponics system, you should check out the advantage of aquaponics system, which could automate 95% of work.
Please told me how?

intro theme kinda sounds like field mob
@jaspertodd
Thank you!
yeah we are all watching to grow cherry tomatoes
I went from assault weapons ban to this..? damn.
air stones are useless in this system....please tell me why you think they are needed,
from minnesota aye?
Need a cordless drill bro.
0:11 - 1:04 Holy shit, Neo?!
if someone can write a list with all part it will be very easier...
