Grow hydroponically on your deck, balcony, or in your greenhouse with Dutch Buckets. Dutch Buckets can be used to grow almost any type of plant indoors/outdoors, and are especially useful for vining crops like tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and larger plants. A Dutch Bucket System is typically arranged in rows on the floor or on benches, with one irrigation supply pipe feeding drippers from above and one drainage line circulating back to the reservoir from below. Siphon elbows ensure the required levels of nutrients and water within the bucket's base. Dutch buckets can be easily joined together and scaled to any size system. Each bucket holds one to four plants, and once the hydroponic system is set up, it can run automatically from a timer with relatively low maintenance. Check the pH, nutrient and water level often and top up when needed.
