So, I've see the rotating gardens. They really look great. Very dense and lush.
I'd love to give this a try later in the year after the temps drop back down a bit.. but I'm not about to put out the pennies for the pro grow systems.
My thought... and old tire. If you rotate the tire, the neuts would roll around the bottom of the tire, and the plants would be (somehow) mounted to dip into the neut solution ever time the tire rotates. Mount a light in the middle, and presto... instant rotating garden.
I'm not sure if the rubber would react poorly with the neuts, but we use rubber fittings often, so I suspect that it's OK.
Any opinions out there?
Cheers
