Dutch Bucket Hydroponic Tomato Harvest, Training & Time-lapse

[@Mister_Stork]

Rain gutter, rain gutter, rain gutter! Great tomatoes! 😁

[@huanita]

rain gutter please!! (and you really look so happy harvesting!)

[@completerealestatent8123]

Rain gutter with Hoocho adapter in 20 litre pots :)

[@steveandtedssmallspacegard8587]

Yeah me too

[@augiezehner6059]

I would like to see the rain gutter grow system!

[@andreamitchell4758]

what is the US equivalent where can I find a gutter with the right dimensions to accommodate the 3d printed bucket in the US?

[@rossg-d7780]

Plenty of vids on traditional dutch buckets out there let's see you put a hoocho twist on a gutter grow for tomatoes!

[@derekgore1268]

RGGS with bigger Hooch buckets please. Many of us just love passive hydroponic systems ....... but also why not do some flood & drain systems run with a solar panel, MPPT charger, small gel battery & a 12V timer :)

[@richardcrossen9480]

I would like to see the tomatoes in a rain gutter/honcho tomato bucket. Thanks. 🇨🇦

[@AntonGully]

Rain gutter for sure. Love these vids.

[@NomosNZ]

Rain gutter tomatos bro. Anyone can do Dutch buckets. Creating new techniques is the way to go! Awesome content as always.

[@Holodomor4.0]

Rain gutter new system hands down!

[@MsSAinyourFace]

Omg this went so well. Those tomatoes looked delishious. Rain gutter grow IMO

[@Jonathanmacgregor]

Dude you’re killing it! I’ve been in awe of those tomatoes for a while now. My vote is for the rain gutter grow

[@hydroponicsbybrianbullock2488]

Congratulations on the bumper tomato haul! I upgraded the strings to rope on my lower and lean tomato system, beware as UV light affects the poly string and the weight of the fruit and gravity. Tomatoes forever, righton.

[@atomizer2665]

I upgraded to using light steel chains and reusable cable ties with silicon airline tubing slid onto them.

[@TheGrowZone]

Nice toms! Would like to see the rain gutter grow, and some custom bits!

[@nicovanvuuren1828]

Hoocho adaptor system gets my vote

[@jsoellner1]

I would like to see the rain gutter grow system :)

Rain gutter grow system with “Tomato Hooch Bucket” new build

[@pottier1976]

I wanna see a BUTCH system! BUcket Tomato hooCH system!

[@peterjansen1687]

Rain gutter with specialty tomato Hooch-buckets! I agree with all the people below. Experimenting and tooling around makes for the best content! Thanks for all you're doing! Hope the tomatoes are delicious

[@kareneverling5860]

Can't wait to see what you cook up with those. I'd love to see more rain gutter grow!!!

[@aussiesheriff7079]

Genetics + Environment + Nutrients = Pounds. It can only get better from here, Well done M8. Can you do the drain gutter Tomato grow, we all know you’d love to design and 3D print the all new HTB ( Hoocho Tomato Bucket ) 🤙

[@wildandliving]

Hard to say which one to do. I went with a flood table with air stones lights on floods for a few hours then drains. Then floods then off for the night. I found wicking beds better though. Just tube to the bottom add water it wicks up just add more.

[@jaydenwoodings3792]

Amazing Haul Hoocho will definitely try that sp of tomatoes now, My votes for the Rain gutter system the best luck I had before hydroponic tomatoes was a leaky gutter system I once had.

[@Isobel83]

An amazing outcome! And the time-lapse looks like the toms have a heart beat! Love it! I'd been keen to see the rain gutter system. Live your work!

[@OptionsJunkie]

I grew tomatoes last year dutch bucket style, very similar to mhpgardner with perlite drippers running twice a day for 10-15 minutes draining back into a reservoir. This year I have made a gutter grow type system out of vinyl downspouts, similar to how the guy on the Keep on Growin channel makes for kratky lettuce. He forms the ends of the downspouts with a heatgun and I cut 3 in holes for netcups and a 3in hole in the bottom of buckets. I then make a 60/40 perlite/vermiculite mix as my grow medium and use a heavy duty ground cover cut in a small section to separate the net cup that is submerged in the downspout to keep the perlite/vermiculite mix out of the nutrients. The perlite/vermiculite mix seems to be a great ratio for auto wicking up what it needs. The tomatoes right now are about 4 feet tall and vines are slightly thicker than last year, and I believe to be doing better than last years dutch buckets. The benefit of this obviously is no electricity as I have a 275 gal tote that gravity feeds the downspouts with float valves. I have successfully grown carrots, turnips, and various leafy greens and cabbages. To me it seems as if the tomatoes should do better in the circulating dutch bucket system, as the gutter system seems as if oxygen at the roots would be lower or the same. I'll know more once the season is over. The grow media is also awesome for propagating suckers or basil cuttings in. It seems to retain a perfect moisture level. The only downside I have seen or foresee possibly is that there sometimes is algae growth on the top, and it may have more overall evaporation than circulating systems, but both potential issues could be fixed by adding a layer of hydroton on top. You should attempt to use the the 60/40 ratio grow medium to do some gutter/wick system growing and compare it with other high yielding methods.

[@Marco9K]

Of those two I'd say train gutter. It would be really interesting to see another rain gutter build from you. :) A very nice harvest of tomatoes, well deserved and you are as excited as I'd be with a harvest like that!

[@DaSupra93]

I was just thinking about setting up a rain gutter grow system with 20L buckets for my tomatoes. Would love to see how you would do it.

[@benscott818]

Rain gutters grow system with new hooch buckets and adaptors too

[@aceofbase8]

Your honesty is awesome Hoocho. Thats the reason why I watch your channel, I can relate to it.

[@matheuscasarinisiqueira6646]

Your happiness harvesting these tomatoes was contagious! Nice video and great results!

[@stambo1983]

Great content man.

[@joesephrodrigues]

dutch bucket as the next system!

[@steveandtedssmallspacegard8587]

Hey Hoocho I am one of your patron subscribers and stoked to see the rain gutter end caps. I had real success with reducing aphid damage last summer with a hydro additive I used in my dutch bucket pepper system. Would you be able to do a test of this additive so I know if it is worth me using it next summer. I am in the lower South Island of NZ and our summers are short and my green house is small thanks fella. My theory is the trace elements in this additive reduce the amount of nitrates in the leaves making the plant less attractive to aphids as they convert the nitrates to more complex amino acids and proteins more quickly meaning there is less nitrogen in the form of nitrates.

[@Hoocho]

What is the additive?

[@steveandtedssmallspacegard8587]

@@Hoocho just sent you a message via facebook

[@steveandtedssmallspacegard8587]

@@Hoocho This stuff also stabilises pH from my summer results , and has very little effect on CF, I believe it doesn't form a salt in solution between pH 4.5 and 7

[@HannahWalters]

This video really made me smile!!!! I'm so happy you had such a good success mate, I bet it feels great!!

[@catherinegrace2366]

German chocolate stripe tomatoes are so good. They’re my favorite because of flavor and health of the tomato

[@yeagerxp]

Excellent work👍👍👍 . Thanks for sharing

damn man i have to say i love your videos so much, thanks and keep it up. p.s. raingutter :D

[@ramoneoliveira5851]

Congratulation hoocho.

Rain gutter grow system with 3D printed pots with time lapse of the buckets being made!

[@mrpeanutbutter4630]

Have you done a video on your method of pruning the tomato plants?

[@ragnarandy]

How about trying to grow the largest plant you can in kratky barrel -I’m growing a chilli (Dorset naga ) in a sixty litre food storage barrel with masterblend nutrients here in the U.K. - after seeing the plants grown by seaspring and Peter Stanley here on KZbin- I think you would be able to grow a massive plant with your weather . You could make it a dwc and add an air pump - doing a tomato this way would be exciting to see what size it could get to - and the amount it would produce- but to answer your question I think the new design hoocho tomato bucket I would like to see - Great videos keep them coming big fan of hydro And your style of experimenting - 👌👍🇬🇧

[@bengray55]

Hey hey hey! Don't just skip over that gadget! What's that thing your using to 'tie' your Tomatoes up with. Thank you, love the video as always

[@noelenecossey8910]

I want to know too!

[@ricardo-iw9sq]

I've trawled the Web but in the UK we don't have the same guttering that you guys use the only thing close is ventilation tube either 100mm round or rectangular and our down pipes are 68mm 😵 so the only other option to keep the costs low are the grey 110mm soil pipe £10 ish for 3m but actual hydroponic rails £30 for 2m so from my perspective I would say buckets but what ever you do is an eye opener especially the time lapse shots 👍👍

[@prescriptionpete866]

I grow my 🍅 the same way, end up with really long stalks lol but they go for years.

[@nickfrazier6136]

I think it's the KGLW helping them grow.

[@varanasihydroponics4641]

We'll come sir

[@abhudhanda8194]

Dutch bucket please!

[@Neal312]

Honestly I'd like to see you make both and see if you can find if there's any difference in growth in them.

Rgg with new 3D pot!

[@augiezehner6059]

What is the tool called that you use to tie the tomatoes up and where did you get it?

[@Hoocho]

Tomato hooks, ebay

[@karlotto8925]

If you mean the plastic ties to the twine of the tomato hooks I can tell you that they are obsolete. Just wind the twine around the stem or the other way around

[@russianbot6968]

Like I would like to see both things, but rain gutter might be more interesting if it's adapted to tomatoes, progress and what not. Also, more King Gizz in your vidz, mate :D

[@thechristofer92]

I've always wondered how much water does the whole greenhouse consume? thx nice crop.

Hi, I’m in wide bay Burnett too. What have you got over your buckets? Is it some kind of bag? I’ve got a heap of these containers I want to use. Cheers

[@deaffatalbruno]

Hey, what tool did you use to clip in the tomatoes to the lines ? I have used clips so far, but this looks easier!! I am in Brisbane QLD, where did do you buy it? This doesn't like a Bunnings stock item ;) ? Great harvest. I would think once the days get longer and warmer here, this should speed up further!

Yes, I’d like to know this too. Looks good.
