@@KaeWhitaker I run aeroponics indoors and outdoors outdoors. Growing indoors is great in the winter but with the increase in energy prices its less economical than it used to be. I have a couple of 28 site genuine aeroponic towers outdoors which run a couple of seconds of mist every 5-15 minutes to grow the plants. The tower garden is actually hydroponic even though its advertised as aeroponic. The way to tell if a system is aeroponic is to look at the roots. If they are dripping wet, stringy and smooth, its hydroponic. If they are barely damp, feathery and bright white, its aeroponic. Most folks dont know aeroponic roots are supposed to look like but if you consider all of the benefits associated with aeroponics (water, nutrient savings, faster growth etc) come from the aeroponic root structure. If you compare the roots in the tower garden to aeroponic roots, you`ll clearly see the difference. ua-cam.com/video/mNZYR96rhwY/v-deo.html
Thanks for sharing this...we're in the process of building my outdoor garden and I wonder if this would be a better time saver. How much can you harvest weekly? We are a family of 5 and I want to eat straight from my garden. Thanks.
You more than welcomed! We’re a family of five and we harvest enough on this one tower for salads weekly and dressings for sandwiches and drinks. I’d recommend theming your garden that way you have enough of what you need, or Kitchen Tower, Herb Tower etc, If you’re looking to grow outside you could do a few flexes (that’s the outdoor version) you could plan on having maybe 3 in place that would serve you well. You would still want to do succession planting but you could def make it work. I grow the things that are out of season inside so I can control the climate and will do seasonal stuff outdoors that way I have options. You’ll still need your beds for your like your root veggies, potatoes, carrots, beets etc but you could make a plan to make it all work for you. I hope that helps.
I want to get a few towers and put them in a small greenhouse I’m building. I want to grow just not lettuce and stuff but squash, broccoli etc. Have you had any luck growing more “substantial” vegetables with the tower?
I need that tower. Such a great way to grow your own food
Yes it’s amazing and I absolutely love it. If or when you want one you can go to my website and I can help you get one of your own! I love them!
Its amazing how many Tower Garden video`s arrive on You Tube every day. I guess at this time of year there`s more chance of making a sale :)
It’s gardening season and a lot of people don’t want outside gardens so we share our inside ones. It’s just timing friend

Hi Johnny, I haven’t grown squash in this one but I have done cabbages and broccoli just fine.

Cool.
Thank you for your reply.
Hi 👋🏾 I just purchased my tower garden. Can you tell me where you purchase your coco coir from please?
I order it from the seedlings place Atlanta Urban Farms
@KaeWhitaker I tried in different websites, including Amazon but I haven't found this brand of aeroponic tower?
I'm from Denmark 🇩🇰.✌️
