Ok so i setup a 6 pot (5gal lowes bucket taped up for no light) bubble setup. Very simple, 6 5gal buckets taped and hole cut in lid for a 6" netpot. Air line in each pot with new air stone with plenty of bubbles. 2 250w mh bulbs with ballasts on wall.

Now my question is if i can use fitting to connect all the buckets like an ebb n flow would but only so i can have a 7th bucket to add or drain the water to have easier flushes and so the 7th pot since no plant in it i can add water bottles to cool water that way. Would this throw off my ph levels and nutrients or if i can ph up/down to the 7th bucket would it make its way to the rest by being connected with half inch hose.
