www.GlobalBuckets.org It's easy to build and grow using the two 5-gallon bucket container growing system! Reduce global hunger with a low cost and simple way of growing food. This foolproof method of gardening is very similar to the excellent Earthbox® method. Like the Earthbox system, Global Buckets: 1) 80% reduction in water usage 2) 100% reduction in weeds 3) Takes very little time or effort. 4) No place to plant a garden? Great! This system works excellent on concrete...like on a rooftop in Calcutta. Unlike the Earthbox method, Global Buckets uses locally sourced free or low cost materials, ideal for developing nations.

have you experimented with using daisy-chaining all the buckets together using a small .. say 1/4″ tube inserted to the overflow drain and on the final bucket have nothing so the res will equalize all the buckets using atmospheric pressure and this way the res can be used as a rain catcher and no need for siphon of air entering and breaking the siphon. I have build may systems this way and works great. PS keep up the good work
awesome!
WOW, I HOPE YOU GUYS APPLY FOR A 100,000 BILL GATES FOUNDATION GRANT ON FEEDING WORLD HUNGER
brilliant !!
Brothers, I applaud you.
No use of motors, pumps, electricity, mass water evaporation, or expensive gadgets to purchase? What’s wrong with you’ll? ;) Don’t you relize how this could profondly affect the world? The nerve!
Excellent!
Thanks for sharing.
These kids are fuckin smart, you guys are changing the world already, you just dont know.
Yes, you should use just one float value for the entire system, not one float value per bucket.
Please see “Automatic Watering Part II”.

I have been looking at a simple float valve system but they are too expensive to use on each planter. Could you just use one in your master tank? I hope it would work because that could be my answer to my really broke gardener situation.
Thanks you guys for your smarts.
re: The trash can seems to have a much higher level of water than the bucket would seem to have?
Yes, we filled the trash can extra high. By doing that we were able to see that the siphon was working. For the next few hours water continued to pour out of the overflow holes on the bucket as the two bodies of water reached equal height.
re: I’m assuming this would work for any container in the link as long as the water levels needed for each container are the same.
Yes!
The trash can seems to have a much higher level of water than the bucket would seem to have?? Ingenious idea, can’t wait to see the next video! I’m assuming this would work for any container in the link as long as the water levels needed for each container are the same. I have tubs and buckets that I will be making planters out of. Curious how you determine how much water to add to the trashcan so that it fills all the buckets when you do water. Great videos, thanks for the inspiration!
