Thank you and I love the remixed sections, I got lucky with a corner apartment with very huge windows all the way around and now I have 2 plant tower in each one and I love it, also printing net cups make absolutely no sense they’re ridiculously cheap you can get them on Amazon on eBay at ridiculously low prices so the amount of time to print them and a waste of time and filament, for supplement lighting I’m using LED grow lights strips

A very great and educational video! Thank you! Not sure if anyone has made a comment about this or if this idea would work, but as far as the design of tower goes, I saw you mentioned lighting at the bottom of the tower is an issue. One way to solve this would be to to make the tower conical. The slope would be determined by how far you think the crop would branch out. This would however require a redesign of the potting sections and section size adapters so the water would be able to flow correctly. Again, not sure if this would solve your issues with this setup but thought it was worth mentioning. Cheers!

Nice review! I used the printed cups because my system is outdoors and attached to an aquaponics system. i found the non printed cups just blew out with some bad wind, so the locking mechanism is really nice for my setup (also todlers and chickens on occasion will drag the net cups out). I printed mine with PETG so they have a lot more flex and not a brittle when exposed to water. I also printed in different colours to signify the week of planting - helping me keep track of the age of the plant - a colour for each week.
@thewarytraveler6375

@@thewarytraveler6375 I’m not sure, I’m only a rookie (although getting a lot of attention from friends and family now with lettuce prices rocketing up in Aus). I’m using expanded clay balls, and they work a dream, cleanup is easy at end of plant life, I run a knife over the outside of the cup and everything comes apart nicely. To be honest we only get really bad wind once a year, but it’s a definite plus for the kids and chooks.

Wow, with Hoocho, only the sky is the limit! You venture into everything related to hydroponics, and now 3D printing? Really impressive, mate! I can't tell you you how much I have learned from your channel over these few years. You are a blessing for all levels of "hydroponiquing" as you call it. I have qestions that I should have asked on the previous video where you did the actual 3D printing. Hey, I thought it was too complicated for me to embark on. But seeing the results of the actual growing, I am like, why not, let's ask. (1) How "easy" could it be to start 3D printing if one can afford buying all necessary tools machine, part, and supplies? (2) How "expensive" is the material that serves as "ink"? (3) What camera do you use for you timelapse videos? As always (expressed or not, here or elsewhere), thanks a lot mate: you take the risk for us! From Shawinigan, somewhere in Québec, Canada.

To be frank, 3D printing is quite a steep learning curve. I found it challenging. (Setting up the printer, learning to level the bed, troubleshooting problems) But once you figure it out it’s just as rewarding. The filament is 30$ a kg (AUD) And check out my how to make a plant time lapse video for all the timelapse info.

The pods have their pros and cons. If you print the standard one its bigger, but thinner and more filament efficient and it helps for bigger, heavier plants since they lock into place. You need to have good settings tho or they'll be too tight.

Hey Hooch, I have a question about lighting in a setup like this. Say you used a hydroponic rack system. If you had a larger grow tent and just put a rack in the center with 4 or 5 layers of PVC hydroponic grow pipes, can you off set lighting in the tent and use reflection (off the tent walls) to ensure balanced growth? I'm curious after seeing this video if off setting the lighting around the grow rack instead of directly above the rack can create that lighting sweet spot. At the same time, I'm worried that as the plants grow the top layer will block out the majority of the lgiht for the layers below. Could this be offset by the reflected light? Thanks for the great videos! I'm learning a lot.

Clay pebbles are not fun to wash! Hours of washing or soaking, or baking in the oven. I used the pebbles in my modified Mr. Stacky system . One small Mr. Stacky tray takes about 4 quarts. Multiply that by 8 levels. Yikes!! If the pebbles aren't sterilized, the next batch of plants do poorly. I learned the hard way. I have used 4 different systems, and am NEVER going to use clay pebbles again in 3 of them. I still use clay pebbles in my AquaSprout for the flood and drain system. It's a small system and I only grow decorative plants it it. It gets cleaned twice a year only. The most "silent" unit is still my Aerogarden Farm Plus. It's a bit pricey. Even though there is a 24 pod capacity, it's not realistic to use all 24, it just gets too crowded. Donated my 10 level, 80 pod system ( purchased as the Martian Grow Tower but many on Amazon)to a local highschool, what a nightmare trying to use it indoors with lights.

Great results! It's better to use the hollow version of the updated planting modules. Pots and net cups come out easier from them. When print settings and extrusion are right there's no tight fit at all (except for the final turn when the parts lock). The pots with the rhombus cutout are stronger but you're right about the 2" net cups, it's easier to use them, no argument there. I was reluctant to recommend them previously because someone had trouble fitting them earlier. Thanks for the criticism!
@Hoocho
@Hoocho 3 года назад
Only constructive criticism, I'd love to work with you to figure out how we can trim the fat on those inserts to make them with less filament or perhaps come up with a hybrid of the original and your disperser so there is no thread on the inside of the rim, Instead perhaps an external screw and cap that caps the net pot to hold it in place (hollow middle for plant) The net pots stay in place fine so I may be overthinking it.
@ASCENSiON1989
@ASCENSiON1989 3 года назад
@@Hoocho I'm all in! The inserts are 1.2 mm thick now (3x 0.4 mm nozzle width). I can go down to 0.8 mm. Two wall lines are minimum. With 1 wall comes trouble. I guess there's just no way to make them strong and light enough, like a commercial net cup. archipelagourbanfarms used clips to fix the cups to the ports. Some simple 3D printed clips would be enough if necessary. Screwing a hollow cap over the cups would be definitely over-engineering, don't give me ideas haha! :'D

I am in the process of printing out enough for 17 towers that will be 6 foot tall each for an outdoor farm inside our screened lanai here in Florida (all brown PETG so they will look like trees). The base will be connected 4" pvc pipe with T fittings that all the towers will be glued into. The system will drain out into IBC containers for the reservoir; then pumped to the top of all the towers with drip lines. I'm coating everything with Naked Fusion epoxy resin (it's BPA free and will inhibit bacterial growth). I'm also using all metal hotends with stainless steel nozzles to avoid contaminants in the PETG that aren't food safe. I figure I'll probably invest in a Bluelab pH and nutrient controller too in order to reduce maintenance needs too.
@Hoocho
@Hoocho 3 года назад
I wouldn’t worry too much about the food safe stuff, it’s gardening. And there’s something to be said for a healthy stable microbial population, (they are essential in soil gardening and aquaponics) and can be utilised in hydroponics to remove waste plant excretions. I would seal the outside and allow the inside to be porous to give those roots something to grab like in the video. (Maybe test it on a couple for a while first and make sure it doesn’t give you any negative effects) I haven’t enough experience with this system to recommend this, I’m just thinking out loud. I have been looking for epoxy for other prints so thanks for the recommendation

@@Hoocho Your video confirmed my decision to stop printing the net cups and just buy them; thank you! I'm also going to make a couple of portable towers in 5 gallon buckets now. I'll try one with epoxy inside and one without to compare them. What is the benefit of the roots grabbing onto things?..(I assume the epoxy would limit their ability to do so). Also, if the roots do stick to the print more, would that eventually cause a debris issue after pulling the plants out? My concern is that I'm figuring to epoxy all of the pieces together (I won't be able to disassemble them for cleaning) and attach the tops of the permanent towers to pipes in the hopes they will survive up to a category 3 hurricane.

I'm new to hydroponics and plan to print this system, but Hoocho mentioned that this system would be best used outside due to lighting. I can definitely see a power savings by doing that. My question you is about rainfall. I live in Northwest Georgia (Canton) and we get a fair amount of rain during the summer. How does rain affect your reservoir? Do you end up with an abundance of rain water in the system (which I would imagine throws ph and nutrient levels off) where growth is affected? I know the top of the tower is closed, but I'd imagine rainwater would enter the system through the net pot spaces. Sorry if I hijacked this thread with my somewhat-unrelated question. These videos are fantastic and helping me to plan my system while I wait for larger nozzles to get here. I ordered 0.8mm and 1.0mm to print these bad boys!

You might try side lighting while rotating the tower. You might rotate the tower 360° over 12 hours or 360° over 24 hours. Your rotation system could de-rotate the tower at the end of every period to eliminate the need for a slip ring contact for your pump power supply. A $5 Raspberry Pi Zero controller could control the nutrient pump and the rotator and the lights and anything else you wanted to control with gobs of capability to spare.

I have seen a rotating hydroponic system. Basically, it was just the base which would spin, however i find that solution not feasible. If the plants need 16 hours of lighting, then by rotating, all plants will not receive the proper lighting during the day. However, i found that someone printed a sort of an umbrella with led lights/strips glued to it, coming from the top. 3 light bars would do the trick. But i cannot seem to find proper lighting, except for Barrina lights, which at least have so me sort of information on the product in the description.

@Spelter
@Spelter 2 года назад
I downloaded the parts and the 3 way module hollow with 0.3mm layerheight, 15% infill, 2 shells, Adaptive cubic, connect the infill every 2 layers, I came up with 140gr per module or 3.3 Euro per part plus power. But a 3D printer is not such a power hog, and if you have it in an enclosure, you save a lot, so I guess 9 hours printing time is about 90 Cents. So per module, 4.2 Euros * 4 (cap and distribution module are the same as 1 module) are 16.80 Euros in total. PVC pipe from plumbing has a few downsides, it's thin, breaks pretty fast (at least the cheap ones) and the good ones cost really much. But we go with a middle version, 3mm thick PVC pipe, 110mm diameter, 500mm cost about 6 Euros. You need 4 for a similar system he had, plus cap, but lets just calculate the modules, you need 24 Euros for PVC pipe. Glue, tools etc. off limits, we didn't include the 3D printer in the prior calculation. So in theory, the 3D printed one looks nicer and is cheaper than a sturdy PVC pipe. You can go with some cheap ones, then it really turns around, because 2m of pipe cost 7 Euros, but one slip with the saw or drill, and you break it. I know it, I used it once and never again. But it's a good idea, if you have no 3D printer, you could use PVC pipe, glue in some plastic with holes as the distributor and an endcap.

Good to know I'm not the only one who has problems with the inserts. I have designed a version with a looser fit that is really easy to get out and is still very much fixed at the end. Find it under remixes. I also designed versions of every part I printed that feature thinner walls and stripped at unnessecary sections so you can get 5 3-way models out of one 1kg spool. I have jet to test them, but I will share them If they are stable enough (which seems to be the case).

@@dagomarco it’s more about head. As long as the pump has the appropriate head you should be fine. Which will depend on the height of the system (how many modules)
