My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Build A Vertical Container Garden

17 years ago

I'm a hydro grower and have designed a vertical growing system that uses 4" pots hanging on PVC tubes. There's no reason it wouldn't work for soil.

I grow in 100% perlite and home-brew my own nutrient solution. I've posted a link to a pictorial DIY tutorial for those who have only a balcony or small patio on which to have a container garden.

The nutrient recipe as well as several other goodies are in my online store.

Relax, everything in my store is FREE!
