Vertical Hydroponic Tower Self-Watering Growing System (for 42 plants, choice of colours)

Complete hydroponic system which has been handcrafted rather than 3D printed, for a more organic appearance and smoother water flow.  Available in 3 colours and with optional hessian skirt.

This is a handmade hydroponic aeroponic/drip system that uses no soil, only water with a small amount of nutrients added. This system has been created to give everyone a more affordable way in to hydroponics that gives great results.  The compact size and use of vertical space allows for all-year-round growing, even for those without gardens.  This tower can be placed in a greenhouse, conservatory or patio window, or beside a front door, on a balcony or even indoors by a window - Now everyone can grow amazing fruit, salads, herbs and vegetables with this system. (That's why NASA uses these techniques to grow food in space!)  These towers have already been purchased by several restaurants, to grow salads for their kitchens, as well as commercial urban farms, looking to increase their range and yields.

The tower can be seen pictured next to an identical, planted tower, showing the results that can be achieved. You can see strong crops of tomatoes, strawberries, lettuce, rocket, peppers, raspberries and stevia  all thriving in a single tower, taking up less than 36cm X 36cm floor space! This compact size, and near silent running, gives great flexibility of positioning, even indoors, for all-year-round growing.

 Each hydroponic tower system holds 42 plants and comes with: 

•   Water pump with power supply and water filter and distribution system (uses 19 watts)
•   33L reservoir food safe bucket
•   Net cups, plant support pucks and a bag of pebbles to support roots of smaller plants
•  100ml of 100% natural and organic nutrients (2 months supply)
•   Constructed using only UV stabilised materials with no phthalates or BPA
•   Dimensions 200 x 36 x 36cm

To get up and running easily in hydroponics all that is needed is one tower system and some plants.  Cheat's tip: Instant results can be achieved at very low cost by buying supermarket living herbs and online plug plants and washing the soil off before planting in the tower.  

You may wish to add a mechanical timer plug.  Using these timers, we run our towers 15 minutes per hour, only during daylight hours, to give plants resting time and give roots greater access to oxygen.  The kit includes a plug in wall power supply, which can be used with a 12v extension lead (available through Amazon) giving complete flexibility of location. (Such cables are thin enough to pass through most closed windows, if the tower is to be located outside and no power is available.)

Full instructions for growing in the towers and also raising your own seeds will be added to this site over the next week.  Expertise is not required to get great results! 

Choice of 2 colours, Polar or Pistachio.

About Hydroponics:

Hydroponic systems use a pump to re-circulate water, nutrients and oxygen over the bare roots of each plant.  Growing crops this way uses only 5% of the water, takes up 1/10th of the space, and grow in half the time with usually double the yield.  (This works out as 4x yield!) There is also zero weeding, less pests, and no buying and carrying bags of soil, and less bending over!  It's also great for getting kids excited about growing their own food, as everything happens so much faster!  Given the high cost of fresh food, and the exceptionally low running cost of these systems, growers can expect savings to cover the initial purchase in a very low number of months.
