Do you have your own window garden?
It looks like it eats all the light coming into the room, so personal experience would be appreciated! Especially if the window is not really big, it can be an issue not only for the plants, but also for inhabitants - not talking about need of opening and maintenance of the windows - for example, we have windows being opened to interior which makes it unsustainable from the very start as it is in conflict with the arch. function of window.
The windowfarms.org project seems to be no longer "on-line".
But definitely, a great experiment.
It would be wonderful to prepare some know-how and make it easier to opt-in.
For example, showing how just replaceable pots and containers can make the window space green and edible, while keeping the architectonical functions of windows.
No need of aquaponics and electricity. If somebody will decide, be sure they will try it yourself. In the meantime, it would be nice to see an inspiration and, for example, tips on what we can actually grow here.
For example sprouts are space effective and full of nutrients.
Hi @thebiggestidea, Thanks for taking the time )
I am living in a shared appartment right now and I dont have a window garden, but I used to have several Nonsai plants and balcony flowers.
I will try to expand the topic if the initistive kicks in. I plan to recycle plastic water bottles and a mini shurflo solar pump to build one. Electricity is important just for the mini pump and extra lights; but not necessary.
I have noticed the webste is down. But was up a few months ago.
There are proven ways to plant Tomatoes, Strawberries & lettuce.
