Raised Garden Beds Are So Yesterday!

I'm building a hydroponic grow tower using parts from the hardware store. I can grow 10 times the amount of food I grow now in my raised garden beds in the same amount of space by going up. You can grow a garden in any space, including an apartment and this costs 50% to 75% less than buying a consumer hydroponic tower. Grow your own food and become self-reliant.

I'm SO glad that you did a video on this. I have watched countless videos and was just not satisfied with what I was seeing. When I saw you had put out one on this, I knew it would be awesome. Great construction and easy to build. And as always... you daughter is so CUTE! She is such an awesome helper.

As an ex little girl, I look back on my time in our large vegetable garden with tremendous fondness. the chores were labors of love. we also had some chickens, and I collected the eggs each morning as my brothers were too rough and loud, upsetting the hens. the lessons I learned then have served me well (still do) 55 years later. they've applied in ways that surprise, well beyond what you'd think. She's a lucky girl to have the experiences and with a Dad like you. perhaps when she's in her late 60's she'll be looking back with as much love as I do.

I am 67 y.o. My poor dad had only girls, I am the oldest. We owned income property. At age 10 I learned how to replace a broken window - points, putty, the whole show. He showed me how to put 1 point in, explained how to putty the putty on, and walked away. He left me on my own to do it. I was really proud. It came out great, no sloppiness. From there it was how to use power tools, cut dry wall, mud dry wall, how to measure, etc. I cherish all that knowledge. I have my own power tools. I can rewire lamps, install ceiling fans, change fixtures. I go to You Tube for anything I don't know. I hope he can see how much I learned from him. These are everyday memories instead of 'vacation once a year' memories...

Have built and grown veggies in builds like this and using the fence post covers horizontally to make a veggie privacy wall in an aquaponic setup with a koi pond. A couple of considerations you are probably already experiencing: 1) While your solution containers seem large, once the two towers get growing good, transpiration will use up the solution shockingly fast. and 2) You have to be careful about plants like tomatoes that get seriously large root balls that can plug of the solution flow and get roots even into the pump. It's very satisfying sorting out the tech and trouble shooting these systems. Have fun.

my first thoughts were that space isn't big enough for the root systems especially if they get planted that close together, great idea though

The minute you started glueing the plant holders onto the main pipe I felt my heart sink as the thought "Wait a minute...wasn't the bottom of the pipe on the other side when he started?" flickered across my mind. In my own homesteading endeavors (here in the Helderberg Basin in South Africa) I've had more of those mix ups than I care to count - usually after thinking "I'd better make sure I don't do that..." at the start of the project. Such a relatable predicament XD I tried to make vertical towers right at the start of my gardening journey but they didn't work well enough in the end. Hopefully next time will be all the more successful for watching this¬

Thanks so much for this helpful video! This brought back some nice memories, too, because I used to help my father make and repair things when I was a girl. My mother believed that girls and boys should both learn to do everything, whether it was carpentry, baby-care, plumbing, cooking, whatever--my brother and I had a lot of fun and learned a lot.

Nice that you got your daughter to be involved & thanks for fitting in so many jokes. I made my own really ugly & cheap hydroponic garden a couple of years ago (indoors with a grow light). One tomato plant grew several feet tall and lived for two years, producing tomatoes until it died! Not sure how long it could have lived. It died when the pump went out while I was on vacation.

Amen!!! I love my vertical towers!! I have been loaded with food all winter while the outside gardens are dead.

Every father should call their daughters beautiful - and teach them how to use power tools at the same time. And at 6:29 of the video When you said "oh really... So you've got a better way than daddy" - the expression Your daughter mugs the camera with is pure Comedic gold. With your witty and fun loving personality, you have embued your daughter with a fantastic sense of humor. You have armed her well. I'm also of the opinion that You should definitely Pontificate on the Plural possibilities of PVC. How can you not.

Hi, some recommendations from someone who did a few hydroponics builds: Try out an NFT system in comparison. While the vertical idea sounds nice at first, I really like the better maintainability and increased productivity of the NFT rails. Please also try out a dutch bucket / Bato buckets build for larger plants. Tomatoes will go bonkers in these systems. Anything with a large root system is happy in dutch buckets.

What’s an NFT rail? Sorry if it’s obvious and I missed it. I can’t build what he’s doing. 🌸

What is the advantage of an NFT rail system? Seems like this one is a great use of space, going vertically. Curious on your thoughts.

I agree but NFT does take up a lot of room. The purpose of the tower is the food production vs the square footage. You can put this on an apartment deck.

It is just like one of those planter pots my grandparents had for their hens and chickens but on a larger scale.

I've been thinking about raised bed gardens & wondering where I was going to get all the needed dirt. Thank you for this DIY video of a raised garden! It is a great idea, no only would it take up less space, doesn't need to be weeded & easier to harvest. It has so many added benefits. 🎉 It blessed my heart when you called your daughter beautiful & let her help & know she was important help with this project. You are a great dad with a great daughter!!! I had a great dad too & used to help my him with projects & it brought back good memories. Thank you!

Is there a way to get capillary action, with some fibers, or something, to help pull the water up, instead of the pump, I wonder? Trees do it. But I don't know if it's possible to make it happen in an artificial set-up. If we could think of a way to remove the electricity, and still get water to the roots, that would be a game changer. Like I said, though, I don't know. It might break some law of physics or something. Just seems like if a tree can do it, we should be able to, if we find the right materials, and composition. Maybe bamboo fibers?
