Increasing Water Volume


Since the propagation table will be in the basement I can have it looking like a mess I was thinking about having three or more rubbermaid trash cans linked to one another.

Pros: Increased water volume, more pod safe areas

Cons: Increased heating cost

I was inspired by this pic at The Salty Zoo

Hey, I know that picture.

I just came from working on that sump just now. I thought I was seeing things when I opened up this post.

I've made a few adjustments to that since the pic, but it's basically the same as shown.

I've replumbed with PVC to replace the hose.
I also put PVC with an elbow and more PVC to move the water flow to the bottom of the trash can for more circulation.

Hey you two. The Rubbermaid watering troughs make good ones too, if you can find them.
Great job, Greg!
