When the weather outside is frightful... Our little indoor homestead . These are wall mounted grow walls in our home. When it's-51 Celsius with the windchill outside , having some greenery really helps beat the winter blues. It currently has alpine strawberries and cherry tomatos. Neither of which has produced a flower or fruit yet, but the plants look happy so far. The tomato plants did not like the transition, we lost 80% of them when they were switched from soil to hydroponics.
This system is a test and is going Into the local schools to promote gardening and teach both adults and children the joy of growing your own food. We are trying one system out at home as an experiement. The LED lights are a huge bonus, electricity is super expensive here. Food security and instability is a huge problem in Quezon ph, we are constantly trying new things. :)
