Looking for DWC draining tips

Anyone got in tips on how to drain the system faster? Using 8, 5 gallon buckets and a controller. Seems to take forever for them to drain....

thanks in advance

A wet vac works

i use an aquarium gravel vac. it empties a 5 gal bucket in about 2 mins.

I unfortunately back break it by carrying them out of the room and into the shower. I have a sprayer attached to the shower head and I wash them down with my sprayer. I also do this because I set the plant lid from the bucket on a laundry basket and I let the roots get nothing but air while I clean her bucket. I do this one by one every 7 days when I do water changes. Sunday ritual you could say.

take a look at a GH waterfarm pic, that blue tube you see is on the outside is a drain tube as well as a level indicator. you can buy some blue tubing (clear tubing invites mold growth) a grommet and a "L" shaped connector and make the same kind of drain easilly
