Free Drip System Hydroponic Plan

Drip systems are slightly more complicated and you'll need some extra stuff to get them going. However, they stand out through the great control that they offer you and the slightly reduced risk of developing flooding problems (root rot for example) that are common with the drip system's bigger brother, the ebb and flow.

Free Hydroponic Plan for Building a Water Culture System Using a 5 Gallon Bucket

A specific branch of water culture systems is the so-called "5 gallon bucket" ones. It's pretty obvious why they're called that, as they use such a bucket as a nutrient reservoir.

These systems are great for start-up gardeners who want to experiment a bit with a cheap system before jumping into some more professional equipment, and although a 5 Gallon bucket can only sustain so many plants, they're a great learning experience.

To find out more about 5-gallon water culture systems, check out the plan below:

Free Hydroponic Plan to Building a Muti-Flow System

Multiflow hydroponic systems are becoming increasingly popular, but building them from scratch won't be as easy task. They'll actually be harder and more expensive to build than most other types of hydroponic systems, but in return you can connect as many planters as you want to the system, instead of being limited by the space of a growth tray. Obviously, the number of planters shouldn't be so high as to exceed the capabilities of your nutrient tank.

Free Hydroponic Plan to Building an Ebb and Flow Hydroponics System

The ebb and flow mechanism is widely used in hydroponic systems nowadays and despite the fact that it's not the most suitable one for some plants (strawberries for example), the ebb and flow's popularity is on a constant rise. Ebb and flows work on a flood/drain mechanism and they're very dependant on the well being of some of the other components in your system, such as the nutrient pump for example.
