Description
If you've got tools, space, a little extra time you can construct your own vertical hydroponic system to grow food all year round in your window. The basic configuration includes the bottles that act as plant holders, a bottom reservoir to capture/hold water, and tubing to move water through the system. It also utilizes a small air pump that uses water displacement to elevate the water up to the top of the system, where it can then trickle down through each plant.
Goal
Construction of vertical hydroponic windows farm for plants from plastic battles.
