1. Go to Home Depot and but (2) 5 Gallon buckets.

2. Take one of your larger drill bits (not one larger than your pellets of course..) and drill about 20 holes in the bottom of the bucket. Make sure you drill enough holes that the water can drain quickly or you'll be standing their for quite some time, haha

3. Place the bucket with holes within the other bucket. Go in your back yard and spray the hydroton you placed in your new system with fresh water. Use logic on the amount.

4. Pull bucket 1 out and set aside. Dump bucket 2 with waste water.

5. Repeat steps 3 thru 4 until you feel your new, or old, hydroton is ready for use.
