Hello! I reside in Canada and in this instructable I will be showing you how to convert junk materials and appliances/objects in disuse into a modular ebb and flow hydroponics system. I recently got interested in hydroponics as well as other self-sustaining systems, so I decided to create one out of waste materials. I will also be outlining 2 methods in order to create the water delivery system to make this hydroponic setup work. One simply uses a water pump or a small fish tank filter, while the other design uses an air pump in conjunction with a large water bottle. I opted to go with using an actual water pump/filter method for the final system, but I also explain how to make a water pump using an air pump as well.

Decide upon the length of the Hydroponic garden rows you want. I'd recommend around 3 feet. Then, cut 3 PVC pipes of the decided length. Also cut the thinnest PVC pipe around a foot long. Now, drill (Rubber Hose size) holes on 2 of the endcaps with the bottom of the hole right below the center of the endcap. Drill one hole using the approximately 3/4 inch drill bit (for the smallest PVC pipe) in the bottom the the bottom pipe. Now, drill holes using the largest diameter drill bit on one side of the 3 large PVC pipe, make sure the holes are all aligned. They should be spaced about 3-4 inches apart from each other. Attach the endcaps to the PVC pipes. Insert the smallest pipe into the corresponding hole until the pipe reaches about half-way into the tube. Seal and secure the last pipe using waterproof glue/sealant.
