You will need a 5 gallon bucket, and a lid, preferably one from a hydro store with a net pot built in, but if not, just a regular lid will do but you will have to cut out a perfect circle for the net pot to fit in. You will need growing media such as hydroton to fill your net pot. You will need an aquarium air pump, the 1/4" tubing, and a airstone. Drill a 1/4" hole at the top of the bucket on the side, right underneath the lid, and put the tubing through. Seal it with aquarium sealant (silicone). You will also need nutrients.
