This is probably the most professional looking setup I've seen for a DIY vertical farm. Nice work!

Is that pipe tower readymade r hand made

[@NOne-yt1tj]

Very cool! Thanks for this video. I've been growing organically in soil, but I wanted to try to grow vegetables indoors during winter months. This system is inspiring!

[@vermontapple]

So awesome. Add an tee and a 90 degree elbow at the middle pipe and you could have a place to add nutrient water without removing the pump.

[@salmanareeb5877]

O

[@paulveslock7744]

Just remove one of the grow cups and add there.

[@enima68]

does the pump work 24/7 ? or is there a programmable clock? if so what is the timing ? does each plant have a different timing? thanks you so much

[@KLMillsInc]

I love that you are making 1 pump work for several towers. 👌🏾👌🏾

[@orionph8544]

Very nice design. How to drain the water to clean the pipe, or replace old water?

[@nalingosalia7667]

you cannot dismantle it , so , to clean it ,you would have to remove all the pots ,put the system horizontal and with a jet clean the pipes .This can be done only outdoor. For indoor , the first vertical pipe , the first joint distal to the connector don't apply the glue, so the system can be dismantled and the water will not leak when its functioning.For topping up as someone suggested , put a T and a plug elbow.

[@jenburgos9]

Actually, if you don’t glue the vertical towers to the base you could remove the 4 towers when it’s time to clean or change water, and simply dump out the water in reservoir, but turning it upside down.

[@vinodchick]

Hello @ Petanikota87 I have made the vertical hydroponics just as you have showed us. I am facing 2 problems 1. There is a leakage problem although I have placed rings to some of the holes. 2. What is the frequency of watering the plant Is there any group who are doing vertical hydroponics so that I could join. Thanks in advance

[@micknmike21]

1:28 can you find a pump that already has the connector on it? I’m struggling to find the connector itself

[@patrickanders6776]

Hey mate, really like your videos. You should consider using silicon to fill the leaks in. Keep these coming!!

Hello great videos. Thanks for sharing. I was wondering if you could send me the make and model of the pump and ac/dc converter. Thanks.

Wow es impresionante,anote cada uno de los materiales para empezar a hacerlo mañana mismo,me encantó ,espero tener éxito en este nuevo proyecto,gracias por compartir.

Like your system, going to simplify it and make it solar, thanks for the inspiration .

[@aguachocaplumbing4414]

very very nice whats the solution for the nutritional water 🙏

[@alexanderjames819]

Could you take out the wicking system and allow the solution to fall into the net pots directly or would the solution not spread evenly enough throughout the system? In any case, you have done a great job!

[@paulveslock7744]

I built this with a few modifications and it works great. Wish I could share pics.

[@papamoussacamara2488]

Oh great, can you share it with me please...

Really good video. What’s the cloth that you tie to the basket for the lettuce for?

Hello, how many times a day is water given to lettuce in vertical hydroponics? Is night different from day? How much time is it watered per hour or is watering continuous throughout the day? Thank you.

[@stevenleadbeater7069]

Do you have any issue with water flow being uneven? I’m thinking a valve on each branch to be sure each tower gets water.

[@gates0]

I have this issue, uneven flow, 1 pipe gets almost no flow and a 2nd pipe gets partial flow. Did getting valves help?

[@salascarl]

what is the material that is tied at the bottom of each grow cup ... they look like a blue cloth of some kind. is that something we can buy ?

[@samellis5861]

how did you make holes so perfect

[@pierreshasta1480]

Nice work, very nice realization. Just a little advice, I noticed that you used the same TDS/EC as me, but you have to be careful... when a friend lent me his professional brand tester, I noticed that there was a big difference (always lower). For example, when my tester indicated 1.2EC the branded tester indicated 1.5EC. I saw on the video that yours can be calibrated, but not mine.

[@ganeshnaik6217]

i this method , should we continuously supply water to the plants, or for some particular time period wee need to supply water?

[@camelia6438]

Can you give us the list of materials used for the 4 towers, please, especially the ones for connecting the towers

[@bryanadz]

Very nice video, you talk only about EC but you neglect the ph control ? good luck

[@DanielCPhillips]

Just as a matter of curiousity - do you run this with a timer, using a 5 minutes on, 15 minutes off watering cycle? I know that would technically make this aeroponics rather than just hydroponic. I would have thought that giving the roots time to absorb nutrients before running the water again made sense. You may be doing this, however I didn't see a timer being put on the pump in the video.

[@johntarun9177]

Also he has put some sponge like absorbers at base of cup and probably covered in first part of which he has forgotten to post link

I have pieced together a parts list for this project. Perfect for my space. I am having a hard time finding a pump like that. Can someone give a clue where to locate it? Here is the part list I was able to derive from the videos. Comment/correct as you see fit. Perhaps I missed something. I dont understand why the 5-way is 3/4" but the pipes connecting to it are 1/2". PVC pipe 4 inch 1 meter x4 PVC pipe 4"x4" x4 PVC pipe 4"x5" x2 PVC pipe 4"x12" x5 PVC pipe 1 1/2 inch (for punching and making a ring in the pipe hole) Pipe connector (L 4" x4, T 4" x3, pipe socket 4" x4) Pipe Cap 4" x5 mini water pump - 12vdc 800 L/h PVC threaded socket female 1/2" 3/4" 5 way cross fitting connector 3/4" to 1/2" reducer x5 1/2" L x4 1/2" PVC pipe 8" x4 1/2" PVC pipe 6cm (2.5) x9 (4x drilled with spray holes) 1/2" end cap x4 1/2" PVC pipe 1.5m

[@micknmike21]

Thank you for this list! I found the pump itself, but it’s not wired. Have you found one with the end already connected or where did you find the connector?

[@alexanderpandit4983]

Where to get the supplies like your tower PVC pipes already has inclined holes which are molded at inclination. What is the cost approximately to buy. Do you sell the kit.

[@simaii820]

Look at his first video on how to make the towers kzbin.info/www/bejne/qp7TgX-feqh2fLc

I’m new to this maybe it’s asked already but do you plant the seed in dirt beforehand to grow then place it into what looks like a sponge and what’s that hanging from the end is that to sponge the water looks like that green scrub pad like this to be explained also someone speaking these steps on video instead of music thanks I’m still looking for that type of hearing videos thanks nice idea tho kudos

The sponge is a rockwool cube.The thing that is hanging is a wick, most likely cut from a piece of capillary mat :)

[@saedesper488]

Great vídeo, does the water needs to be replaced? Over what period of time if it does?

When it becomes elementally unbalanced. As a rule of thumb, when you`ve added back the same amount of plain water as the original solution volume.

Cut strips of Levis will work. I think any cut material tied through the bottom of cups would do. I wouldn't think you need these if your plants already have roots. I'm building some of these myself.
