Let's set up a grow tent!
The author details the process of setting up a smart hydroponic grow tent for growing plants indoors. They assemble the tent, install a multi-tier shelf, set up a DWC (deep water culture) hydroponic system, and plant perilla and baby leaf green seeds in sponges on a Styrofoam board. The seeds begin to sprout within a day, marking the early success of the project.
- ▪The grow tent was assembled in about 15 minutes.
- ▪A three-tier shelf was installed, with plans to initially use only the second tier.
- ▪The hydroponic system uses a DWC method with seeds placed in sponges on Styrofoam floating over nutrient water.
- ▪Holes in the Styrofoam were spaced 15 cm apart for perilla and 5 cm apart for baby leaf greens.
- ▪Sprouts appeared within one day, earlier than the expected one-week germination time for baby greens.
