Very nice setup ya built here Mr. Brain. Yep to many roots to pull out so plant the whole thing was the way to go. Love the hot water trick on getting those tubes to form. Stay safe over there!
@@WhitneyHoyle g’day, all of these drums are foodgrade at manufacture. HDPE plastic is foodgrade. Just be mindful what the drums contained before using them. Obviously you don’t want to use something that previously held oil or herbicide. I got my latest batch of drums from “ Enviro recycling “ in Malaga, for around $4.00 each. Their phone number is 0424 490 889.
Thank you. No sorry I don’t use the round buckets as dutch buckets. I’ve seen them done using electrical grommets where the return pipe comes through the bucket.
G’day Michael, on a 20 litre drum I cut it just under the top, if there’s a ridge moulding line this is easy to follow. These green drums are 25 litres, I just traced a line equal to what my other drums are cut at.
@@Brianshydroheavensounds amazing you are inn the future is 3:30 am here. anyways. do you use any bigger pumps for any ibc system in case you have one?
@@BLUNTGAMINGCHANNEL yeah I think I’ve a bigger pump in an aquaponic system, maybe an aqua one 105 pump. This month I’m hoping to get a poly tunnel built and redo my systems. Bury the reservoir and run everything using a 3000 litre per hour pump. There’s a downside to that in that if the one pump quits or malfunctions everything can run out of nutrient solution at once. I guess I’ll see how it goes. Have a great weekend.

Brian Bullock great video. Do you have any videos on how to convert a plastic bucket without the tap hole?
Thank you. No sorry I don’t use the round buckets as dutch buckets. I’ve seen them done using electrical grommets where the return pipe comes through the bucket.
That's very informative
Thank you, free recycled materials are great, good luck building.
I use old cat litter containers work very well
if you have top lids cut in half and make two dutch bucket per container
That is so cool!
Ron Ner thank you Sir.
Brian Bullock how high do you cut the bucket from the bottom? I mean how high is it lol. Hope that makes sense

got links for the pumps you are using?
G’day, no links sorry I’m using Aqua one 104 pumps mostly. They are pretty cheap, seem to last a couple of years.
@@Brianshydroheaventhanks for the early reply I truly appreciated

Good suuuupper
I can get them drums free, driving around the backroads of Virginia south Aus heaps get dumped out there n saves the council picking them up 👍
That’s excellent. Free materials are the best!
