The Fastest (and Cheapest) Way To Grow Your Own Groceries In Your Kitchen Garden - Yanko Design
"You don't need to drive to Whole Foods or the local farmers' market to pick up ingredients for a salad, and you sure as hell don't need to pay nearly 4 bucks for a bag of kale, or 6 dollars for cherry tomatoes. All you need to do is walk to your kitchen, and the Indoor Hydroponic Tower provides for you."
"Last year I splurged for a hydroponic kit, and although it did feel like a bit of a learning curve adjusting from soil-based plants to hydro-based ones, I managed to grow Italian basil and spinach in a month, and my own San Marzano tomatoes in 2 months. In fact, I harvested my own habaneros on Monday. The cost of all this? Practically nothing - I saved seeds and planted them in my hydroponic tower."
Indoor hydroponic towers enable soil-free, sun-free home cultivation of vegetables with minimal human intervention. Seed plugs sit in biodegradable sponges that fit into planter pods, and a combined 48L tank supplies measured water. A sunlight-mimicking LED array provides necessary light, allowing kitchen gardens to remain indoors. Vertical stacked layers allow growing up to 48 plants in a compact footprint. Hydroponic kits can yield basil and spinach in about a month, and San Marzano tomatoes in about two months. Initial costs can be offset quickly by saved seeds and home harvests compared with store prices.
