Vertical farming with Tower Gardens is on the 'rise' and rightfully so. You can grow a variety of plants without ANY soil and 90% LESS water. It also requires 10x less space so you can do a lot more in a smaller area. That means easily growing fresh herbs, fruits, vegetables, and flowers both indoors and out. And because everything is grown and picked fresh, the flavor is unbelievable!

I want to see charts, numbers, what does it cost, is this doable everywhere, is this renewable, energy efficient, etc etc, and comparisons to conventional farming
@@RainCity3rd Let's not forget all plastic that's being put into the environment doing it this way. Also losing all microbiology you get the soil is a big no-no for any type of farming. Can't expect plants that for millions of years that rely on beneficial fungi to suddenly not have them anymore.
The cost for example is also way too high for example the largest vertical farming being built is being done by AeroFarm and will cost $40M USD. (which will produce an estimate 2 million pounds of produce a year) At the same cost you could buy 5000 acres in Iowa and in worst case scenarios produce at 125 million pounds of greens.
@@TheKaronAwards but you also need to invest in all of the machinery for the farm where the vertical farm number you quoted likely includes. Also the real farm uses a ton more energy and I suspect a greater environmental footprint as need for weeding take a lot of energy and chemicals. That plastic should work fine for decades so I don't know if it's releasing much more than farming. Again this is good where the soil is terrible and where water is scarce.
Is this going to replace farms? No. Is this a good alternative to continue to innovate especially is in water scare sunny places, Shure why not.
@@TheKaronAwards I can't imagine how they could be even with how intensive mordern farming is. Using some 3 field system sure it hobby farm but not industrial with the need to rejuvenate the depleted soil and deal with weeds, pests etc. How admitted we are exactly comparing apples to apples here because this vertical farm isn't nearly at the scale to be much more than demonstration. Would need much more automatic systems for seedlings, planting and harvesting. Again I see a place for both. A little tower in the backyard could do a lot for most houses and much closer to home which is great considering transportation is the big elephant in the room for any large scale centralized system of food production. Where land is valuable such as urban environments this is really neat. Of we can even grow more of our food at home or close that is a big deal. Cuba does this very well out, as they have to.
@@TheKaronAwards You could build those towers from hempcrete with chicken wire inside, that way you could reduce a ton of plastic, if plastic is what you worry about.
One thing I have been looking into, and I suggest others to look into as ell, is the Greenhouse Gas emissions from Greenhouses needed to grow in this way. I have found that rather than growing using Hydroponics or Aeroponics, a preferable alternative would be implementing Permaculture methods into agriculture. If we focused on working in harmony with nature and following in mother natures footsteps, we can be very productive and also very ecologically conscious. Mother nature is the best gardener after all.
We should never get rid of some natural gardens or farming, but places like this should pop up all over. In cities, in dry or unfarmable areas. This would be such a helpful addition.
There will always be at least some conventional farming. Corn and wheat for example, cannot be grown vertically because of the height of the stalk. Apples, Peaches, Oranges and so on must be grow in orchards because of the structural nature of the tree. There is no one-size-fits-all solution, but that's also the beauty of it.
Yeah for both pesticide use and destroying forests for farming it would be nice.
Would love to see that coming
not part of the system
@Ferdinand Vardas I noticed that. The problem is Town and Cities being overly ambitious with Rental Properties and Property Taxes.

She didn't seem to be on the same wavelength as this guy, which led to her being fascinated and not necessarily asking the important questions.
Ivan Ooze correct is a conspiration ! I don’t buy the white metal or plastic holding up all those plants . Because it’s going to release some chemicals components .... then plants will absorb them anyway ......
totally agree, I learned only how fachined she was - nothing useful.
@@Kassiusday Compared to the amount of high degradation plastic used in agricultural grade plastic, using a high grade plastic like what is in those grow towers, especially if kept in temperatures lower than 85º F, compared to the high heat direct UV exposed tunnels most of your greens comes from the comparison isn't even on the same chart of exposure. As this technology becomes more and more popular, make no mistake, you will find a "merchants of doubt" style offensive from the agrochemical industry.
@@Kassiusday Oh come on..!
@@Kassiusday yeah, no. ignorance and personal incredulity is not a good ground to build a premise on.
Figured I'd chime in here on the comments about plastic, and the nutrient solutions.
The plastic these towers are made of is all UV stabilized and fully food grade, certified to not leech anything into the water, or food grow in the system. And while many have said this is unsustainable since plastic is usually petrol based... you need to take into consideration the massive amount of petroleum used to grow and transport produce to our grocery stores - if you have a lot of land and can grow your own without a compact system like this that is fantastic, but there are millions of people who don't have that luxury, and this system allows them to grow their own instead of relying on our giant gas guzzling agricultural system.
As for the nutrient solutions, they are simply earth and sea based minerals. Minerals, by definition, are NOT organic (chemistry defines the term 'organic' as carbon based substances). That said, there is no petroleum or other chemicals used in the nutrients. They are the same minerals you'd get from growing plants in soil, so if you grow food with this system, while the nutrient solutions themselves can't be called organic since they are just minerals, all the food grown in it with this solution could/would be organic unless you chose to spray or use other additives.
A few things I absolutely LOVE about this system vs soil gardening, and why I grow with 3 of them myself even though I have a sunny 1/4 acre I also grow some soil based gardens on:
1) it allows people who wouldn't otherwise have the space/time/knowledge to grow their own food to now be able to do so, which in turn empowers people to take ownership of where their food comes from and to make better health choices for them and their families
2) Growing your own food allows you to eliminate not only the tons of herbicides/pesticides/petrol etc that our national agriculture relies on, but also eliminates plastic grocery store bags, gas to and from store/shipping/etc, and tons of food waste.
3) since these towers are a closed loop system, there is zero runoff into our waterways etc and it also protects the food you are growing from contamination,
4) the University of Mississippi, one of the best agricultural research centers in the US, studies these systems compared to soil based gardening, and found that this system met or exceeded what could be produced in the ground on everything from growth rate, yields, disease and pest resistance, and end nutritional content of the produce itself.
5) Growing with this system allows you to grow a garden with up to 90-95% less water than conventional gardening requires to grow a similar crop, and in a time where access to clean water is becoming an ever increasing problem, this is a huge win.
Thanks Jeremy.
Really wish you were the one covering this and not this Grateful rep lmao.
Thanks for the thesis...lol. good stuff!!
I suggest you read "Merchants of Doubt". As this becomes more popular the agrochemical industry will come after this with FUD.
How does it really use that much less water?
When you look at the embodied energy of any product, one of, if not the largest component is the energy to transport the item to your door. If these farms popped up locally, and cold be competitive on price, this would be good for people's health and for the environment.
Thank you for making this video! I am planning to make a similar setup that can produce fresh vegetables year round for my family to eat.
I love being able to see this kind of farming, but I feel like she just seemed to be more interested in the aesthetic of the place than the science and methodology behind the plants. And like other people have said, she didn't seem to be on the same wavelength as the guy, and thus didn't really ask many important questions. I think she should have been more informed before going. However, he was really interesting.
Bra.. it's a red headed female what'd you expect?
The fact that the guy mentioned using coconut husk as the soil for the plant had my wheels turning.
@Awenda This system is a hydroponic system. The vertical columns are a much more efficient way to manage and distribute nutrient-rich water. These indoor systems are designed for year-round growing. In this system, it's optimised for leafy greens and herbs.
Commercial hydroponic systems are capable of producing enough produce that can feed well beyond 100 people a day. The crops you mentioned (potatoes, corn, cabbage, broccoli) can't be grown in a vertical system. However, there are many other methods growing methods for hydroponics.
This video just does a woeful job in explaining anything. It's solely the presenter's fault for being more interested in the looks rather than the functionality.
Awenda what’s your evidence?
@@Shady36 He specifically says it's not soil, it's coconut husk, when she calls it soil.

I really like the development of agriculture in the future which makes agriculture no longer underestimated and this video has discussed the fact that with just a little land and water you can produce good vegetables (vertical farming). thanks for the video!!!
"O my God, it can grow with just this amount of soil!" The man literally mentioned that it was made out of coconut husk ...

so annoying and seems to not care about the topic at all. clearly not listening
I actually find this creative and sustainable just basing it on the fact that its using less land and less water (which is quite the need of the hour) and even then producing good quality vegetables. and even if some people might consider it 'unsustainable' it at least is an effort towards being better!
You throw around "sustainable" like you have the slightest fucking idea what the word means.
Firstly, land is the most sustainable resource on the planet... it IS the planet! There is farmland that's been used for thousands of years- good luck in ten years finding a single piece of PVC in an aeroponics garden that's survived the decade. Oh, did I mention that it's literally growing plants in plastic? You know, plastic from CRUDE OIL? So sustainable.
"Less water"- do you even know what "water" is? You seem to be under the unfathomably ignorant delusion that irrigation water comes from Dasani bottles. The truth is that 46% of produce sold (by cost) didn't require any irrigation at all- it was watered only by the most sustainable source of water- rain. The remaining 54% was watered mostly through the same rain but with additions of only slightly filtered water or through flood irrigation, where rainwater flows through canals to the farmland- no trucking, no pumping, no gas- wholly sustainable.
This shit? You use petrochemicals to make the freaking tubes, petrochemicals to fuel the pumps, petrochemicals TO LITERALLY BE THE BUILDING. The only thing less sustainable would be to GROW CROPS IN LITERAL OIL.
Every sizeable (and that could be as small as thousands of people) community could have a bunch of these indoor vertical farms for their year-round local food supply needs.
Why is this not everywhere? Fake hold ups. Yes. Not because we can't technically do this. Not because it isn't efficient. Sure there are some complications to sort out, but that can be done. The hold up is we are trying to pound a square peg into a round hole. The round hole is the infinite growth, profit maximizing monetary-market system that the world uses currently as an 'economy' with the square peg that is: Environmental and mental health and sustainability. That's what we want, but we can't get there in the wrong sort of economy.
But we can change. It won't be easy. But it's possible. Dare I say, inspiring, if you know where to look. Look at all the systems we could be using: Circular Economy, Open-Access Economy or Natural Law Resource Based Economy. Never heard of them? Not surprised. The super rich ownership class don't exactly wanting people to know about it. However, that shouldn't stop you.

@@coolioso808 The WEF has talked quite a bit about a Circular Economy and those people are the super rich ownership class you are referring to.
@@chazaqs9109 The WEF folks can talk about whatever they want to talk about, and they have talked about a lot of things, but what's your point? Forget them, they aren't going to control your life and mind unless you let them over fear and paranoia.
What I'm talking about is system thinking. The system we have now of monetary-market capitalism is socially, economically and environmentally unsustainable. It already has a tiny minority of super rich owners. In the capitalist game, they have already won that game of Monopoly. And the system will run off course and take most of humanity down with it if we don't talk about what really matters: System change.
Start local. The WEF aren't in your local town are they? So, read as much as you can and learn as much as you can about systems, science and Natural Law. If the '-isms' are distracting you, don't let them. Keep looking at the facts and figures until you understand the root problem and then you can work on viable solutions, such as building up local self-sustainable communities with co-ops that people choose to engage in and benefit from by creating abundance of basic needs for all who want it. That's a practical, possible solution. Worrying about the WEF is not.
Utilizing all forms of farming and making them all work in harmony seems to be the most sufficient way. Keeping progression to newer and better ways of doing things should he the main focus
An intelligent man who saw a need in his community and acted on it! The world in a good place if there continues to be people like Troy 💚
That’s so true. Such projects usually have a team, funds and investors who help and support them. So they all contribute to making our world a better place🌱
Well lets all appreciate, that she tried her best to shed light on an awesome topic.
True! ;) Aeroponics-the technology Tower Garden uses-is the process of growing plants in an air or mist environment, without the use of soil. It is the most effective and efficient way to provide plants with the necessary nutrients, hydration and oxygen.

Stable and dependable electricity supply is paramount for these. One power outage from a thunderstorm caused me to loose all my plants.
I also lost all my plants due to a pump failure while I was asleep. If a pump failure happens while you are asleep couple of hours will kill your plants. Some sort of alarm system is needed to alert you to a problem with the water cycling.
You better have a backup pump for each tower.

This is a perfect example for what infotainment does with an interesting topic that would be worth exploring the details of.
And how it produces an audience of ignorami just educated enough to feel strongly about a topic but too naive to understand that everything has pros and cons.
Just like with most obscure tech, aeroponics s cool but it's highly situational, and people who watch infotainment without using their brains will overlook that every time.

@@rockspoon6528 can you explain?
@@samshaw1443 The conclusion that "plants don't need soil" is only valid if you don't bother to take into account where the nutrient slurries come from which are used in aeroponics, where the water comes from that's used, where the electricity comes from that pumps the water... aeroponics uses MORE soil than any other growing method, and also more fossil fuels.
Also, there isn't "nothing wrong with not knowing something", that's a platitude. There's a lot wrong with not knowing certain things, and even more with failing to make the most blatantly obvious connections when presented with all the necessary information.

add a fish pond below ... the fish feed on algae ... they poop in the water ... the water feeds the plants the plants clean the water ... and back to the fish it goes ... there you now have your garden and a fish pond with dinner growing in it along with your garden ... heck add a worm bed compost fish feeder and now you also grow worms to feed the fish and break down your garden trash again putting nutrients back into the water ... and so on ... as for cost ... how much does it cost for a 12 inch diameter section of drain pipe and say 16 feet of 2inch abs ... and some adhesive ... and tubing and a pump ... and of course a room with good light you can put it ... and a tub for the fish ... and now you have a fish feeding pond and garden that also supplies your meat and fresh veg as needed ...
.
aquaponics ... is where you combine the garden and the fish huggle culture is where you close the loop even further by including the bits needed to compost down the waste materials back into useful nutrients for the system ... from adding may fly larva to worms to ducks and chickens ... etc ... you can make a complete self supporting garden that will supply meat veg and even eggs in small scale ... or if made into a major deal can provide cow feed and increase garden production by a HUGE amount ...
.
all in all for basic system you can build it for under $1,000 bucks .... and use it for years ... so how many veg would it have to produce to pay for itself ... if you grew 120 plants of iceberg lettuce and each head cost 2bucks at the store ... then 500 plants or 5 grow sessions of lettuce would pay for the complete setup ... every plant after that is FREE except for the time to tend them ...
@@0623kaboom men, a 4 towers hidroponic sistem, can be as expensive as 500 bucks... and with a high of 1.80 mts tall, you can easily put about 12 to 24 plant set EACH, and the only real expensive thing would be liquid nutrients.

The beauty of this is that we can have these farms in our cities so that the transportation cost is cheaper as well. Almost half of our vegetable prices consists of high transportation costs for bringing these from rural areas into urban areas.

Thanks for sharing this
I really like the idea of indoor and vertical farming. I think it would be useful for Canadian farms. We have a pretty short growing season so we wouldn’t have to rely on foreign markets so much. Thinks like vegetables, fruit, and berries are expensive the farther north you go and it’s not unusual to see mould in berries by the time they get up to where I live. It’s September 10th and we’re getting frost warnings at night but the afternoons are unbearably hot. So it would be nice if farms around where I live used indoor farming over the winter to plant crops we normally have to import. It would cut down drastically on the amount of nonrenewable resources used to get us just a few strawberries. There are places in the territories you only get in by flying, places that pay $5 for a head of lettuce, they really need access to this sort of thing. I know at least one community created a year round green house but I wish it was more common. Places with droughts, short growing seasons, or a lot of people to feed but not a lot of land could really use this kind of system. I hope governments pay closer attention to these sort of solutions and alternatives and see if that’s something they can encourage or work with bring to their own communities

Without weeds and insects, I wonder how these plants deal with fungal pests. And: since there's no dirt at all, the nutrient solution would have to contain dozens of different minerals.

🤣🤣🤣
This is incredible honestly
Amazing to produce healthy and nutritious plants, thank for yours info, permission to share
Yes, please feel free to share.
i've been looking at a hydroponic system for my home, i've been thinking about using a nice compost tea for fertilizer.
The methods of this vertical growing are quite interesting.. especially for edible greens.
Thank you 🤝🤝
I have nieces, that are pretty as the mountains and the trees... Never underestimate the reuse of pallets; a vertical Garden in a very small place !!!
God bless this Man & his family. This is phenomenal !!!
Also, you left a question I answered. "You can feed 100 families for a week for how long off of the entire room of plants" ?🌱🌱
Every neighborhood should have a farm like this.
No, no they shouldn't.
well done......what a great video. Bravo........!!!!!
This farming is so amazing.. i love it..
Thank you!
"this whole thing was 26 days?"

@@mp3hipnozy Plants grow from air.
Plastic impacts the plant less than a metal pipe would.
The plastic in those tubes has a much lower degradation rate than agricultural grade plastics. Make no mistake though, as this becomes more popular you're going to see a "merchants of doubt" style backlash from the agrochemical industry.
This is great , no pesticides and soils that's now days has become garbage. Totally awesome work in the tower of power plants 👍🏻
@@MartinMenge You can easily consume plastic bags.
This is goals 🙌🏾

This isn't new. My dad was growing tomatoes in his greenhouse hydroponically in the 70's.
this is aeroponics though...it's slightly different.
Nothing ever is new... lol just recently all at once they can suddenly cure Malaria, Alzheimer's and Cancer but they knew for ages cos it's A LOT more simple to cure it than they made it seem especially Cancer where it was already known that the Rabies Vaccine as well as certain viruses like Cowpox cures cancer, people in the 1900s who had the Rabies Vaccine were totally cured of it straight after :\ They hide all of these things from us for a few hundred years at least and then for some reason decide to give us certain cures during certain centuries, i don't understand why that is and what the problem is of giving it us before :\ maybe they just make money off it until they finally get bored of doing so then finally give people the cures.
And in coconut shells without any dirt? Doubt it.
@@Vixinaful no just different product back then. So...
Hell the Aztecs were doing this
Awesome and so cool . Thank you 🙏❤️💞🏡👍
this is an extortionary faciality. Nice job, for a report from a social media perspective, you did well. Bringing this to another demographic is important in a style that us relatable. Maybe this will help bring this fresh growing to the cities and the apartment residents that desire veg all year round that they can grow.
I loved making this video
Intriguing, Smart, and Artistic..Thank Yyyooouu!! For making it..
ps..will you Be my internet wife??
How can I buy from that guys vertical farm and how can I get in touch with him ??
You looked incredibly uninterested in what this man was explaining to you throughout the video.
Lauren Kelly first time I saw a vertical farm was on the show the affair and I thought it looked really futuristic .
And we loved seeing you in that dress
"that dirt flavor" is probably the bacteria we are missing in our modern gut
Or minerals that we actually need from soil.
This is a great effort for modern farming but you’re right. The soil gives us our microbiome which is extremely important. The host is misinformed and only has part of the story.
Can’t do it better than nature
AngelaMerici12 the minerals are supplied by the nutrient solution
Our microbiome is first inherited from our mother as we pass through the birth canal into the world. We have a culture as soon as we are born.
Probiotics can come from fermented foods regardless of where they are grown.
Prebiotics come mostly from vegetables, legumes etc.
This is very interesting for sure, thank you :-)
I'm obsessed with my TG!
She clearly doesnt understand what is goind on
This girl had no idea what she was stepping into.... it would’ve been nice if you would’ve done a bit of research before hand 🤦♂️
why ?
To know what questions to ask
Please make her voice go away.
Or they could have sent someone who had experience with farming or even gardening.
She sounds ignorant
What a great video. Thank you!
Thank you!
