New to Hydroponics - Want to Build a System With a Budget of $650

[FalseFlash]

I joined this forum to ask for some help on building a system. I have a budget of $650, I can go somewhat over but prefer not to. I been searching all over Google for days but have not really found anything useful for me. I don't want one of them 5-gallon bucket systems.

I'm hoping to use PVC on this system, just because I think it looks better.

This system will always be outside until winter.

I plan on growing tomatoes and peppers as a first start. Also, I live out in the open so this will have nothing from blocking the sun.

I already have some stuff towards building one;

• Hydrofarm 1000-GPH Active Aqua Submersible pump
• General Hydroponics Flora Series QT - FloraGro, FloraBloom, and FloraMicro
• General Hydroponics Ph Control Kit
• Hydroton Leca Clay (6 pounds)
• 60 3" Net Pots

So if maybe anyone could link me to a step-by-step guide that would be great.
