I just painted 5G buckets for light proofing today. I don’t know exactly how I’m going to exactly circulate water yet. I’ll probably just place the buckets where I want and start plumbing things in. Just a 2 bucket plus control setup in a 2x4. I’m tired of dirt and coco. I’ll post some pictures in a few days. I hope to be circulating bleach/water to wash the system tomorrow. Seeds went into plugs a couple days ago. Should be poking up soon.
As for the net, i just wind them back/forth around the screws. Let’s me get things a bit tighter than a store bought net. And yes, my frame is almost exactly like yours.
edit..
looks like you have your control bucket outside your tent. I plan on the same Just for ease of access. Is there a specific reason your air pump is inside the tent? I’m going to keep mine outside for a bit cooler air. The noise doesn’t bother me as the setup has its own bedroom.
