How to build recirculating deep water culture hydroponic bucket system 5 gallon hydroponic buckets 3
This is part 3 of the build where I put the final touches on the system,adding airline, filling with water and testing - i love when it's a one and done job - no leaks either!!
part 2:
The dry box is so that I can run my power outside in one central location, and since I don't have any outlets outside I have to run the main power into my outlet in my bedroom - SO you can skip this step if you are doing this inside, or have the appropriate power supplies needed to make your "growing" demands :P
But I should also mention I got LUCKY last year with the Hydroponic NFT Rail system I built
video :
running only one pump and no proper coverage of protecting the equipment - no power issues and like i said....i got lucky - SO this does serve a great purpose if you're going to be hydroponically growing outside and need to protect your equipment.....this Dry box take just a few minutes to make and shouldn't be overlooked!
not only does it serve to protect my power supply, but since I'm using an air pump for this new RDWC system, I'll need to protect that as well!
hope you've enjoyed the video and inspired you to build your very own RDWC hydroponic bucket system! happy building and growing everyone!

Now yes, some of these items like the PVC and buckets you can easily obtain at your local hardware store like menards or lowes - but if you're in an area that isn't close enough then these will work all the same - otherwise everything listed is the exact same product I have used for this build down to the nutrients and seed starting kit - you're also helping this channel and myself out by clicking my links for your purchases as Amazon rewards me as an affiliate - so thank you very much!
