This is to connect the 4-inch T joint at the top of the bucket to the drainage pipe and flange inside the reservoir.

 the grow tower was cut and an additional 4inch pipe with pockets were added to make them even.     Once the 4inch T joint is secured, on either side of the T joint, a 9 ½” length of 4-inch PVC is glued to the T joint to accommodate a 4-inch elbow on either side. The two plant towers can now be connected using PVC glue. the flange was attached and the pump line was tread inside using a string. 

 The pump’s outlet was routed to the top of the towers using water tubes. The water will flow down from a shower head, trickling down the top of the tower and back into the reservoir. The shower head was constructed by using a 4-inch PVC cap. The cap was placed on a round object and heated with the heat gun, creating a “belly”. On the cap, three rows of holes were drilled with a 1/16” drill bit around the circumference. At the centre of the shower cap, a 1/2” hole was drilled to fit the pump’s outlet line. A ½” to ¾” reducer was glued to the end of the shower cap line.
