Overview
I'm building an aeroponics garden because my mother didn't believe you could grow plants without dirt. I'll learn her what for.
I'm basically following this design.
DONE:
- Bought plastic tub
- Cut PVC lengths and threw together the basic spraying tubing with T's (thanks Gregabyte!)
- Cut holes in lid for the hanging mesh pots
- buy/borrow/steal submersible pump (thanks Gregabyte!)
- buy mini sprayers
- drill holes in pvc for the sprayers
- buy end caps for 3/4" pvc
- fabricate some hanging mesh pots
TODO:
- buy nutrients
- steal some pearlite from Gregabyte ACTUALLY, I think I'll just collect some pebbles.
