Description

With the way food prices are going , i wanted to increase my growing area , while taking up no more space. I have seen hydroponic towers online before but this is my design( version) its a lot smaller than most and could be placed as a centre piece to a table or on a counter top, wherever you want .

There are 2 version but most of the parts are the same.
1 the jar lid mount , fits on a 1 L glass jar from the dollar store that usually comes with a metal lid.
2 stand alone tower, that has a remote tank for water and nutrients( would work better with aquaponics ) this currently has a g1/4 female port on the side of the base cap to allow the system to drain. I have yet to dsign the stand for the stand alone version but this will come soon.
all parts are press together , and can be glued .
requires an air pump ( aquarium )
preferable an adjustable air system to adjust the pump for the most flow( too much air slows the water pump)
can be assembled as tall as one wants. ( there may be a limit to the lift abilities of the pump.)

update: 2022-04-11 : 2 screw down mount bases for the stand alone tower.
ring to glue to original lid threads

update : 2022-04-14 : cleaned up the cap a bit , fixed the barb .

update: 2022-04-20 : larger filter for the water intake added
added break down ass ably drawings of both setups , (not limited to just 2 pods)

Update 2022-04-21 : opened up some holes in the cap a bit to prevent clogging and adding extra back pressure on the pump.

Update 2022-04-23: added new cap with different hole arrangement ( seems to lower back pressure) not required if the other cap has no issues but different printers and slicers may have issue and plug the holes .

more updates to come , let me know any suggestions you may have
