For years now I've wanted to grow my own garden. I've sprouted seeds hoping Aaron and I would find our way to a yard, even a small yard only to watch my seedlings wither and die without the land they need to thrive. Apartment living is hard on plants.
AND for years I've wanted to figure out something useful to do with plastic drink bottles. I try to save them, use them as cups for as long as possible but they eventually grow to an unmanageable number and start to fill every cupboard til I'm forced to cull them.
SO imagine my delight in finding a solution to both problems: A DIY Hydroponic Window Garden made of plastic water bottles and some PVC piping. I really want to build my own. Maybe over the Christmas break?

Wow. I want a garden too but i'm not that motivated. i'll stick to being content throwing my bottles in the recycle bin.
Amazing what creative minds can come up with! I think it even looks great.
Very cool! When we didn't have much outdoor space I got into square foot gardening, it is great for tiny spaces.
I love you and miss you like crazy, but all I can say is: I'm glad I won't be your roommate when you start that garden.
Hurray Katy!
What will you plant first? I hope that you will have a window full of herbs or tomatoes, or rutebaga (it could happen, right?) by springtime!
Come on Rebecca! You loved living with plants "MISS Most Likely to Grow a Garden." Bwa ha ha ha!
My only concern is what would you do to keep Reuben from wrecking it?
It makes me think of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. In a happy way.
that does sound cool. probably too involved for me as well. but i keep thinking that next spring i'll try to grow something in the old garden spot in our yard. we'll see.
