The other method often used is called the 'gutter' system. Very similar to the above, but imagine a 8'' wide plastic rain gutter filled with your 'media' (soil, cocoa peat, fiberglass, rock, whatever, the plant will adapt) 200' long. That replaces the labor of setting up 200 buckets. The plants all share the same flume; water/nutrients are recycled as dictated by plant needs.
