Hydroponics in our home


After working this system for approx 6 months we have come to the conclusion it’s best use is for salad greens. Spinach, all kinds of lettuce, cilantro, basil and cat nip. (our cats LOVE catnip
). The best part about it? No bugs, no dirt, when you want it, you get it. Don’t have to change shoes, put on a coat, or get gloves! Everyone needs one of these! The water is changed bi-weekly with nitrogen rich fertilizer and the air pump turns off at night. It is attached to our bedroom wall, I am a light sleeper. For the first couple of weeks it ran continuously….. I didn’t sleep. If you want the rough plans let me know, I will send them for free, otherwise I hope the photos show enough. We will give free advice if you need any. The whole purpose is to get everyone from relying on the grocery store for our food.
Go Hydro! Grow your own veggies for a minimum cost!!!! Year round!







So this is a DIY set-up? I'd love to see the plans! Thanks!

Thank you, and please do share our information! Keep watching for a post very soon about our fog table we are using to start our seedlings before they are placed into the vegetative system. Looks like you'll have most of the items anyone would need to grow their own food, nice work! Our veggies want one of those digital metal halides

nice aeroponic setup if you are looking to grow different kinds of veggies like tomatoes or fruits and what not i recommend using a bubbleponic or an aeroponic misting system or even aquaponics which is highly self sufficient whats a cost range for something like that? check this site out for some of the previously explained kits http://www.hydroponicprofessionals.com

You do have a nice site....would be really nice to have somewhere to go for DIY system parts instead of all turnkey systems though. Funny, I'm working on an aquaponic / auqaculture system now....my substrate is on backorder. Due to my ever dwindling floorspace this will be a wall of greens design with an airlift. Cross your fingers ya'll! (and thank you!)

I have just been through your site, reading your stories and how you became to eat just raw food etc. I am amazed at the hydroponics set-up! it looks truly incredible.
I am truly in awe of how both of you live how you do. I personally am a meat lover (i very much enjoy the chinese dim sum for example) and I do love vegetables and salads, but your site has made me question it all...
Incredible

Thank you for your comment.
There are so many things in this life that we cannot control, the one thing everyone CAN control is our food. We encourage everyone to question where your food comes from. It's quite an eye opener.
We are working on better details of the hydro system. We will keep everyone informed when it happens....
Make sure you subscribed to our site for more inspiration!

Great article!

This method indeed ensures that all fruits and vegetables you grow are 100% organic. But this kind of farming takes a lot of space and consumes a lot of electricity because those plants need a lot of light. Is it really worth the extra expenses?

That's a great system! I'm glad to see that it's used for salad and other legal plants

If only such indoor gardens would become more popular and people would be willing to invest some time in this activity. There aren't many people that would sacrifice the luxury of getting their food from the market instead of growing it themselves.

I'd never have thought that so little space can provide so much vegetables. With a minimum investment, anyone could have fresh vegetables and salads growing in their spare space, it's a great idea!

Wow, that's a nice year-long garden in very little space! I tried the raw diet for a while, but I just couldn't handle it. I admire you for keeping it up, though! I'm sure you're very healthy, and thanks for sharing your tips and recipes. I make some of them sometimes!
