Grow your own delicious organic vegetables with this DIY hydroponic system. Forget about the costly systems found at hardware and big box stores. Build this system for much less!

Use any old plastic bin, storage tote or similar container for your grow system. Drill some holes in the lid and plug in the 3D printed, mesh pots, re-circulating pump faucet, micro bubble diffuser, water level indicator, cable and hose accessories.

Note: This kit contains the STL models for the 3D printed parts and assembly instructions. The air pump, submersible water pump, hoses and micro pore cloth is not included, these items are readily available online and at most department stores.

Many hours of design, testing and 3D printing has been put into the development of this product to ensure quality, reliability and performance.
