Dutch Bucket System
Individual grow buckets on a shared drip-and-drain line — built for vining crops like tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers.
Each plant gets its own bucket of inert growing media (e.g. clay pebbles or coco peat) fed by a timed drip line, with excess solution draining back to a shared reservoir for reuse.
At a glance
- Suited to tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers
- Reusable closed-loop solution
- Simple per-plant troubleshooting
