Here in South Texas this is how we get greens year round. I have always done this in smaller containers and it is very labor-intensive to keep the water levels accurate. The fittings, totes, and pump all came from Amazon. As did the net cups and clay peppbles.
So I’m so excited for my gravity fed hydroponic system. Fresh greens year-round for us now!
interested ad well please
very nice. The tote is shallow I like that. I'm going to search for the totes. What are you planting?
I have lettuce, kale, Swiss chard, basil, parsley, and cilantro in it now. My husband is working on another for tomatoes and bush beans
Thanks so much! This came at just the right time!
You using normal led lights?
Thank you for propagating the knowledge. It gives encouragement for everyone to produce vegetables
my husband has spent the day researching other setups he can build me now
Awesome. My wife and I are also partners in learning and practicing what we learn to achieve self reliance.
Sarah that is totally aswesome. I love those racks - they work great. When I hold classes, I always include that as part of the content, but tell them, that you are an INDOOR FARMER. I dont use any type of pumps indoors, so it's totally a manual operation, and you definitely cant "set and forget it". Anybody that says passive Kratky is set and forget is not telling the whole story - rofl. I run mine right up till about mid June- ish. By then, I have grown enough that I have either in the freezer, or dried/powdered up for green smoothies. EXCELLENT JOB ON THE RACK!
