25 gl Molasses Tubs, designed to grow plants thru 8 vertical sidewall holes, and anywhere from 2 - 8 plants in the top. Each tub has a 7 gl. water reservoir built into the bottom with 4 ea. 5/8" Polyester wicks. The fill tube is a 3/4" PVC pipe with a capped top, so Mosquitos can't breed in the reservoir. The reservoir top is made from 10mm PVC Coroplast and supported by a Egg Crate made from the same material.

5 gl SIP bucket with 4 vertical sidewall holes, 1 Polyester wick, and the same type of fill tube, this bucket can grow from 5 - 7 plants, and has a 1.5 gl water reservoir.

The 3 rd picture is a 5 gl Float Valve control bucket, with 1/2" drip fittings, so either of the 2 types of SIP planters to have their water reservoirs filled with water 24/7/365 by either water hose or gravity flow from a rain barrel.
