This thread will be for us to share our new adventure - hydroponic gardening. We're not replacing our other gardening but just adding this new one.
The history - our inspiration:
Jeff's sister took up doing this a couple years ago as a way to garden throughout the winter months. Researching this and watching YouTube reviews of many models out there and chatting with her, she's been using for 2 years now with no issues at all, and she even gets an abundance to share with her neighbors.
It is a pricey initial startup cost, but you can start smaller and expand it for more growing down the road, but we've been eating so many veggies this winter (a new diet plan for us) we figure it'll give us some gardening pleasures and something we can do once outside gardening has ending for the season. His sister even uses her's to start some of her outside garden seeds for things her greenhouse doesn't carry.
So, stay tuned for progress photos (ours is now on order) and our Walmart was already stocked with seed packets for the upcoming season, so we picked up several to give them all a try.
