I finally installed my Bucket Company water rings. They have been working great. Took a few watering to get them adjusted correctly. I’ve been using their EZ-PZ drain stands for a year now. They also preform better than expected. I would not run a grow without them. Does anyone have any experience with the Bucket Company’s water rings. I’m curious what the longevity of them are. I worry about the plastic being under the grow lights for so long and if they will become brittle. Regardless it’s great to mix my liquid in the reservoir and have the pump and rings do the rest. The drain trays, run off pump and water rings really save me time and labor. The whole system was purchased from The Bucket Company over time. I went from a 20 square foot space to a 50 square feet. If anyone has any questions abou my set up. I’m happy to reply.
I haven’t used the bucket company’s products but I do know about plastics, plastics tend to only get brittle when subjected to UV light, so long as your grow lights don’t put off a lot of UV then they should last you a good while. May your harvests be bountiful!
Sweet set up! I’ve been thinking about something like that for my 5 x 5, just haven’t had time to shop around. I hadn’t heard of the bucket company, I’ll check them out. ![]()

Thank you for the information.
There products are built well. There Drain pump system is a little pricey. You can get a MVAC condenser pump from Menards cheaper and it works just as well. If you have any questions let me know. .
@Fields , nice setup. Mine is similar with the pipe and fittings but for the ring I just used drip emitters with 1/4” tubing. I do like those hose holders and cpvc feet! Are they from the bucket company?
No, I made the hose holders myself. PVC pipe. Then the feet from Amazon and the green hose holder on top also from Amazon.
Wow, what a set up. Very nice
Do you remember what they called the top piece? The hose holder piece. Not having any luck locating it. Thanks
Thank you
Yeah, I’ll look it up and post a link if I can. And I’ll post the exact name of it. You’re referring to the top green piece correct?
@Fishyswaw , they are Garden hose guides. My hose I used is 3/4” so I made sure that the inside ring was big enough to go around my hose. Which the inside of these holders
are 1”. I then just simply placed the spike of the holders inside 1/2” pvc for support along with the pvc feet. I included a pic of the hose guide and pvc feet. Let me know if u still have issue finding them.
. I included a picture from Amazon. Let me know if you still cant find them.
@Fields , found them. Thanks a lot!
