this is our orchid project. we have made an ebb and flow hydro system with everything from walmart and lowes. we used a rubbermade container as a resivior with a pump. the water is pumped up to the planter to a level of 3 inches deep and drain back to the resivior. this happens every four hours for ten minutes. we used hydroton media and botanicare nurtrients. here are some pictures.
