Get educated on which foods provide what nutritious value. Build a menu for a one-day, one-week, and even a one-month duration, and be prepared to enact each as necessary. The biggest challenge in creating such a menu list is more than just meeting nutritional minimums. Eating is more than a mechanical function; it is part of our reality, our daily operation. Building this menu is sort of like a financial budget; if it does not take into account natural tendencies and desires, it can become an onerous and undesirable chain, restricting and impeding success and survival.

Using a large painter’s bucket, attach the copper pipe to the inner wall so that it spirals down—the end of the copper pipe should exit the bottom wall of the bucket. Be sure to seal around the pipe using silicone or similar. This copper pipe acts as a condenser and will be extremely effective if the bucket is filled with cold or ice water. Fill the pressure cooker, close it, and boil the water. Clean, potable water will drip at a slow rate from the end of the copper pipe as it condenses. In order to process large amounts of water, we recommend using a large steel drum in place of a pressure cooker.

Also, make sure the entire tray’s surface is covered in Styrofoam to cut down on evaporation (which can increase nutrient levels to dangerous levels). Lastly, use an aerator hose to run the length of the tray several times. They are also purchasable at pet stores and will keep the water aerated. You can also, optionally, pump your nutrient solution from a reservoir into the tray, and then draw the tray back into the reservoir, keeping a constant water level.
