Build Your Own Affordable Hydroponic Tower Garden (Under $50) |How To Build Vertical Garden Tower | DIY Hydroponics Inspired by Mike's Garden Tower @KeepOnGrowin This tower is made from six 2-gallon buckets. Each layer has the capacity to accommodate 4-8 plants per bucket with a growing cell size of 2 inches that fits perfectly with a pool noodle. The structure is supported vertically by a 3/4“ pex pipe. I made a tiny holes around the pipe to create sprinkler like or pattern on each layer of the bucket using a 1/16 drill bit to ensure an even distribution of water to each growing cell/hole. There are 6 in total vertically, so each bucket has it's own individual sprinkler like pattern or mist. The pump can raise water up to 10 feet in height, and the reservoir is a 5-gallon bucket Nutrient Solution 10g Masterblend Tomato formula (NPK) 10g Calcium Nitrate (CN) 5g Epsom Salt (Magnesium Sulfate) 5 gallons water
