We built a DIY hydroponic system to grow fresh lettuce in our home. Hydroponics is a method of growing produce without using soil, where the plant roots draw nutrients directly from water. We utilized common materials including vinyl fence posts and PVC fittings. We also built a support structure out of stained wood to give it a decorative touch in our home and conceal some of the connections and wires. We love having fresh produce right in our home!
