Dick,

I'm looking for the same info.
I want to put together something small, just to grow herbs.
I think it would be silly to pay $150 for the Aerogarden if I can put
something together in a plastic bucket.

I just can't find the info.

Please post if you find anything.

Most of the books at Amazon seem to be geared towards large-scale
gardening, or marijuana.
There is no magic involved. You can use buckets, pipes, rain gutters,
whatever. You can manually move the nutrient solution. Rather than spend
much effort, I spent some money. By the time you get pumps, tools, whatever,
you get in a hole. Nutrients have boutique prices in hydroponics store.
