What are the spacing between all the holes?
Comment from : Jonathan Gillette

Thanks for sharing this video! Is this square PVC fence posts food safe plastic?
Comment from : Md Mamun Islam

Looking for the net cup hole spacing, i bought the udemy corse, but i think that step for hole layout is missing?
Comment from : Tactical Ant

Confused on the material list The materials on this page are not accurate to the materials on your website at all
Comment from : Sauron6600

This build idea is awesome Thanks for sharing! You might want to change the "caption" of the system type, since this does not seem to be a nft system, but a DWC stretched out over rails You have a lot of standing water in your pipe / squares, that even needs to be aerated Im my world, nft uses a really thin film (like 2 mm) of nutrients Your systems productivity seems to be outstanding, the plants look really happy

Dude I have to say, you could give the flash a run for his money 😂😂😂 seriously though, your system is by far the best I’ve seen yet Great job and thank you 😊

Questionif you glue the end caps in place, how do you remove them to clean out the rail??
Comment from : Susan Anderson

Is there a way to get the plans without signing up for weekly emails?
Comment from : Stethacanthus

How do you get comfortable that the sealants, adhesives, paints (plus plastics more generally) are no leaching into the water?brbrDo you give your parts time to off gas or have a cleaning regime you use once the adhesives / sealants have cured?
Comment from : James Tricker

Hi, brNice system you designed, brjust a question, is the PVC made in food grade pvc?
Comment from : Alf Johansson

what’s the reasoning for painting the inside container lid black? Thanks
Comment from : Zane Smith

2:54 what are the pieces here? I don't see them in the list of parts
Comment from : hamtoilet

Information?
Comment from : Beekeeper847

I just finished building this system, only two rails for now It cost me around $175, I didn't really add up all my receipts yet No leaks! Woohoo, looking forward to the fresh greens Thanks again

Fahrenheit or Celsius? :)
Comment from : CheOpster

Cool Thanks
Comment from : Escape the Matrix

After 9 months in production, I am now building a second set of rails for more produce! Since this one will be above the first set, I'm using a second (larger) pump in the same 27 gallon reservoir Leetuce on the lower set, and strawberries on the upper set Planning on fewer holes as I have not used them all in the original build Great design! Thanks again
Comment from : California Phred

Why did you chose PVC, is it marked PVC-U or PVC-C aka non plasticized pvc?
Comment from : ican seeclearly

Super presentation
Comment from : Janardhana Kini

Only criticism I can post is the use of glue and silicone It's really not needed, plus if you ever need to take it apart you won't be able to Otherwise great job
Comment from : Life Scripted

Awesome design, thanks for sharing But is all this material safe for food production/consumption?
Comment from : Paul Carrier

Won't PVC leach hazardous chemicals into your crop?
Comment from : Eric Hogan

Is there any reason you could not put the post end caps on with the silicone and 2 stainless screws on each side without the PVC cement? I would think it would be just as water tight and leave the possibility of taking an end cap off for a deep clean if needed at some point
Comment from : David Ward

Thanks for sharing I'm almost done building my system and am excited to start growing One point of clarification for the parts list on your website - the bulkhead fittings from Zoro have a larger OD and will not fit in the 1 1/4" and 1 3/4" holes Unfortunately, I did not realize this until I had already cut the holes, so currently waiting for a shipment of bulkhead fittings from Amazon If anyone gets the bulkhead fittings from Zoro, you will need a 1 5/8" hole saw for the 1/2" fitting and 2 1/4" hole saw for the 1" fittings
Comment from : Ryan Franklin

what size hole saw is that?
Comment from : W Jeter

thanks for sharing your build - can't wait to do it myself!
Comment from : Danny Taylor

why did you paint the inside of that lid black?
Comment from : anonymous

Can this work wall mounted?
Comment from : Stephon Nurse

I'm confused on the seedlings If the net cup only extends 2" into a 4" depth, how does the water reach the netcup? Do you have 2" of water level? You mentioned that you alter flow specifically for the seedlings, but how ?
Comment from : Rick Morales

Why not just make a full DWC instead of using all the water pumps? I see you use an air pump Would that not be a simpler design Just adding air lines to all rails If you change the water every week than theres no worry of stagnant water or low nutrient levels
Comment from : thisOne

What were those two blue things with hose u put in the black box?
Comment from : Cryptoartizmo

I completed this build about a month ago and have lettuce growing Great design! Pump size based on hose length (distance from reservoir) is crucial to getting the standing water depth correct in the rails Once I got that dialed in, it is working as designed Also, be aware of the hole placement above the exit coupling Too close together and the grow pot won't seat as it will hit the coupling threads Thanks for the design specs and videos Outstanding!
Comment from : California Phred

How long does it take to change the water?
Comment from : Wenn B

When using Rockwool, does the cube as to touch the water or only the root of the plant have to be in contact with water?
Comment from : AMindGame

what are the Square rails you are using? and are they 4"

Have you found a cheap source for square pipes?
Comment from : Marc West

very well done, thanks!
Comment from : marc ribail

What are the dimensions of your support structure? How high above the floor and are your light supported from the structure?
Comment from : Richard Martin

Been preparing for this for months Today I build this! Thanks for the guidance
Comment from : Colby Mathis

I do love the square tubes over the round plumbing pcv But not sure that love using products with black to grow food Probably the material was quite a bit less expensive before the pandemic
Comment from : Somethings Gotta Give

Too bad you used plastic with BPAs UPVC is the way to go for hydroponics
Comment from : Ken Tichy

Your craftsmanship is TOP NOTCH! I absolutely love your videos You don't skip a beat and I'm forever grateful for the information that you have provided on your channel
Comment from : misspandesal

Very nice videos I didn't like seeing you put glue on the inside of the pipes I would only put glue on the outside of the small end pipe
Comment from : AlSmokenT

Im really not sure how you consider this a hybrid between NFT and DWC This is in fact a classic NFT system There is nothing DWC about it
Comment from : Diesel Ramcharger

Do you run your drill in forward or reverse?
Comment from : Never Winter Farms

Why did you painted in black the inside of the tub cover of the reservoir?
Comment from : Simon St-André Galarneau

Why spray paint the inside of the top of the reservoir black? Limit algae growth? Is this step critical?
Comment from : StickalissDynasty

Great stuff!
Comment from : LvlUp

Is this crazy glue in the lil clear tube you’re using inside the black bulkhead fitting?
Comment from : 3 Boulders Urban

Loving the videos, have you thought about using a slightly larger size tube, and staggering the holes so that it increases the space between plants, and also allowing a little more water flow?
Comment from : Andre Roths

Does it mean if u put some fishes into the bucket it will be aquaponics instead of hydroponics?
Comment from : Kiat Xing Ng

I appreciate this video better thanks
Comment from : Shemiah Nyaude

Love this system
Comment from : Brooks511

Plastic post covers? Garbage bags? Spray paint? Super glue? Is all that food safe materials? I’m not sure it is
Comment from : mduoba

24 hours run this water pump
Comment from : Niranjan B

Can you share with me what the black threaded pieces are I’m building a system?
Comment from : Michael Prieur

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Comment from : Bionatural Plantas e Cia

Great informative video! One question, is there an angle to the rails or do they sit straight and just allow the pump to create flow?
Comment from : Douglas Wissler

Does anyone have any ideas on a simple easy to clean reservoir that wouldn’t get any light pollution or contamination outside in Hawaii?
Comment from : Daniel Dawes

Great Videos, thank you! Is it possible to grow peppers in this system too?
Comment from : Bill Karnes

What pvc fittings are used between the bulkhead fittings
Comment from : Rxhamel

That was by far the best video on how to set up a hydroponic system at home
Comment from : Sabrish Prakash

how are you going to clean out the rails if you glue the endcaps?
Comment from : logiclab1

Lettice costs 70pence
Comment from : Walkthrough

Is it better to use black pvc to prevent algae growt in the tubes?
Comment from : Sonny Chann

Very good
Comment from : About Creativity

All the chemicals you are using to glue the PVC in the end you eat them all with the vegetables you grow in this system! The water in contact with the adhesive and the silicone becomes toxic! Especially silicone releases toxic substances! DIY wrapped can be bad for your health!
Comment from : MARZINTOSH TECH

What if you get some fish for the water tank I think it would help the nutrition How often do you add water to the tank?
Comment from : Upside-down Guy

What kind of food and how to mix it in the water please?
Comment from : Ronald Broehm

What is the growing medium?
Comment from : Langston Osborne

good job!
Comment from : Tyson Mayberry

Beautifully made and explained but relies too much on the grid
Comment from : Charles Ayache

Awesome
Comment from : x3lnThp!

Are you using PVC/Vinyl for your system? Does pvc/vinyl leak toxic chemicals? Are there any alternatives for a square design like this anyone?
