Wait...what?
I commented on your other thread...and noticed something else. Will these be ran outside? If so, you might want to space those buckets further apart. Soil plants outside get massive, I could not imagine how big hydroponic plants would get.

No, just put outside to disassemble and clean. This is the system I’ve been using for a couple years with multiple strains. On the thread you commented on I’m currently in the process of creating a new build...I commented on your other thread...and noticed something else. Will these be ran outside?

Looks nice and clean! The only issue I see is that you will probably need to build a separator to keep the roots from holding that float valve down and causing the buckets to spill over. I built a reef tank from scratch years ago that had a self contained sump in the stand, where I grew chaetomorpha to remove phosphates and nitrates from the water that flowed through the sump, and even with a separator with slots cut into the bottom it would eventually find it's way to that float valve unless I checked on it weekly.

Looks good except the 1 inch return line. I would have went with a 2 inch as you can have roots chasing the nuts down the return line and might plug it up. Keep an eye on that part and you will be good.
