It is important that the buckets are all arranged on the same level surface.Ī: Use grow media that retains water well. A nutrient rich solution is drip fed to the top of the Dutch bucket, which drains through the siphon elbows into the collection pipe and returns drain water back to the reservoir for recycling. Q: How does the Dutch bucket hydroponic system work?Ī: With Dutch bucket hydroponic systems, buckets are spaced along a common 2” outside diameter water collection pipe. Ideally you can grow more plants with a lesser amount of water if you are using the technique properly. In a Dutch bucket system multiple plants/buckets are arranged in the same row and are connected by the same irrigation line and a drainage line circulating back to the reservoir from below.

Siphon elbows ensure the required levels of nutrients and water within the bucket's base. These buckets can be easily joined together and scaled to any size system. Feed plumbing for the bato Dutch Bucket includes 0.5″ poly pipe feed line reduced to 5/3 mm feed tube using 0.5 gpm emitters, and finally barbed stakes connected to the 5/3 mm feed tube anchor the feed line to the growing media.ĥ.Dutch buckets are especially useful for vining crops like tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and larger plants. The plants are fertilized using the Nutrient Injection System, which pulls a concentrated nutrient solution from fertilizer tanks at predetermined ratios and then injects the nutrient solution through the feed plumbing lines on intervals ranging from 3 minutes ON every 20 minutes to 1 minute ON every 30 minutes, depending on the season and maturity of the crop.
