Maker Faire Bay Area 2008
Homemade Hydroponics

Location:   Makers Market  near Techne group   

Two simple yet effective hydroponic systems. One is an ebb and flow system made from a storage tub, PVC pipe, and PVC fence post, used for growing tomatoes. The other is a lettuce raft, constructed from a storage tub, foam sheet, recycled cups, and an aquarium pump. Also overclocked fluorescent lighting.
