    Hello John,

    Thanks for the invite.

    I too, am glad to see others from MS here. I hope to make a garden for ourselves soon. Still trying to see what I like and truly need.

    I think I'll find many answers here.

    John,

    Hi John. I'm growing in a 10x20 greenhouse. It's a large hoophouse. I'm using a flood and drain. I have pics of the system being built. It's very basic. We built a "pond" and I have my growboxes just above the level. the pump pulls out and dumps from a long pvc that runs the beds. I tilted the boxes and drilled holes so the water drains in a gutter that runs back to the pond. Like I said, it's a simple design, but it is working great!
