Alaska Grow Buckets Parts

Alaska Grow Buckets is no longer offering kits. We look forward to continue meeting the needs of our many national and local customers and the ever expanding home-growers market. We will continue to offer the FREE Alaska Grow Buckets Guide to show how to easily construct your system and you are welcome to help support our effort if you find the information worthwhile.

Many local garden and hydroponic supply retailers are now offering similar parts to make your system. We will continue updating our shopping page as we find better and lower cost parts for making your own Alaska Grow Buckets. I strongly encourage that gardeners find and re-purpose used buckets whenever possible and help us to keep plastic containers out of our landfills. Look for the Type 2 HDPE symbol on the bottom to indicate the plastic is safe to use for growing vegetables. The lowest price I have found for new 5 Gal. buckets are the familiar orange buckets sold by Home Depot.

* NOTE: The RAINPAL RBS005 Brass Rain Barrel faucet uses the 7/8” mounting hole as indicated in the FREE Alaska Grow Buckets Guide …other faucets may require a different diameter hole.

* Note: The 3 pack of Plastic Colanders only need the handles trimmed off to fit. A strong shears or scissors will work.
