Soooooo no one has any experience with this eh? Is it better to just buy a controller expense wise?

$20 float valve assembly, couple containers- Home depot has the valves in with the toilet parts.

To see how it works, pull the cover off your toilet.

yeah just get another 5 gallon bucket, the half or 3/4 gasket depending and a few feet of hosing and a straight barb. All should come to less than $15 at your hydro store. Remember that the controller is only effective if the system is recirculating.

Okay so you say just get a five gallon bucket for the nute solution, a straight barb? what is that, like the um little deal that you would connect all the waterfarms to? And the gasket or a grommet? I take is for the hole I make in the bucket no? to connect the hose to?

Actually I guess I'm lookin for a brief description about how everything would tie together in order for this to work. Like how the controller would connect to the waterfarms and whatnot.

Oh I gotcha'. I think Weedhound has a post that people like on recirculating waterfarms. Read that guide, because the setup is a little different.
