I totally agree with this new way of agriculture as in vertical farming! This is the new way. Absolutely.
Beautiful beautiful engineering on that tower. Very impressed. Beautiful informative presentation. Awesome job. 👍 🇨🇦
best presentation ever on an aeroponic system. This is exactly what's needed where regular crops are failing, like in the Great Plains and everywhere just about. I love all the features, but was kind of wondering why the smaller plants are on top until I realized it'd be too tall if the bigger ones are there.
This video absolutely sold me on getting a Tower Garden Home unit. After watching this presentation, I was all in. Mine just arrived today, and I’m ridiculously excited.
Hey, how is it going? Any updates please
The presentation doesnt provide the full picture. The commercial Tower Gardens in the video use 216w a day in order to supply the plants with the 7L (
These are awesome and will be needed more and more, since our leaders are letting China buy up so much of our farmland, in the last 10 years. Soon they will be competing with us. I went in the grocery store the other day and the produce guy told me lots of the vegs were from China. I was shocked.
I agree. This is one reason I’ve started 3D printing my hydroponic towers. I just don’t trust big ag anymore so I’ve opted to grow my own vegetables at home.
Very nice video. Good and convincing info there, Tim. I cant wait to try the Home garden! Thor from Norway
@@ingvildkvarme8702 ja, veldig happy med TowerGarden. Salat, koriander, timian, bladpersille, ruccola, spinat, basilikum osv. Hver dag! Bare å klippe smart og ofte, så holder det seg bra i månedsvis.
Great video. Very informative. Will be sharing with First Nations next week.
Just ordered an indoor and outdoor tower garden and I can’t wait to get them!! So excited ☺️
Let us know how it turns out!
Which is better?
Any updates??
Hello?
@@katelynking4978 Love them both, no complaints, everything is working fine but some veggies will do better on the outdoor tower because of the cage and space needed. Tomatoes do better outside for taste. I recommend to grow your own seedlings to avoid pests or to treat them before bringing them to the tower garden. I live in a Zone 9A so I’m able to grow in the winter certain types of plants. Wish I could attach pics of the size of the zucchini’s wow! and they were so good, I can always taste when they are not organic. They grow super fast too. I’m glad I got both though.
Amazing how many folks pay top money for what is a basic hydroponic tower. At best its a vertical NFT on a timer at worst its a vertical tower with a centralized drip system. Based on the information given in Tower Garden promotional video`s, the tower garden will consume 10x more power a day than a genuine aeroponic tower of equal plant capacity. The genuine aeroponic tower is capable of supplying just the amount the plants will use. The question to ask the seller is; if tower garden is aeroponic, why does it need to pump so much water through the tower each day, when the plants only use a tiny fraction of it.
Thank you very much from France, here aquaponics and hydroponics are still not well known. I will also make an aquaponics system much smaller but I will try a prototype and see what it will give.)
Very innovative but I'll wait til their pricing goes down or more competition gets into the business, they are $600 a tower for the commercial ones.
Worried about the humidity that this might create indoors?
Just bought my 1st one!!! Soo excited😀😀😀
I need some of these
This was a great video.. trying to find this in Canada is there a website link etc because I'm definitely interested in investing in this. Great idea!! Especially living in high-rise apartments w limited space.

wow! I love this. I need to get in contact with you ...
A family isn't going to meet their salad needs from growing a few plants. We need co-op type attention given to filling our empty spaces with these and start growing for the community on a mass scale. A greens store as common as WalMarts or convenience stores?
So excited! I just ordered mine today 🎉
Hi Tim! Total fan! You are at Tru Garden there, I think. Can you tell me please what the temperature is at the greenhouse? I'm curious. And, I guess it needs to be controlled as well as ventilation. Adriana
please shipping to Indonesia, we need your tower, we in Indonesia have a profession mostly as farmers, and your tower will be very very useful for us Indonesian farmers
nice setup & design, but at ~1,000 USD for each of the 'Tower Garden Home' units, they're EXTREMELY overpriced.
indeed. Will take a very long time to recover what you've paid for.
My Tower Garden flex unit was just over $600 broken into 12 payments - for outdoor
@@drlindadavis as of 2/23/2021, the towergarden.com site lists the same model as in the video (Tower Garden HOME Growing System) for the low, low payment of $80.84 per month for 12 months. That's over $950 broken into 12 payments.
@@IllaFoRilla - I did not like the look of the Home version so did not check the price on that model. I live in sunny FL - so no need of any indoor expensive growing system here. I would not pay $1000 for any system. $600 was a stretch for me on the outdoor version but willing to give it a go.
@@drlindadavis it's great you live in FL and don't need to waste the money on the crazy expensive "Home" model. What are your thoughts on the 'Flex' model when used outdoors? I also live in the south and looking into DIY/3D printed models to accomplish the same goal.
watching this for class it is soooooooo longgggggggg
hehe
But so informative
great information thanks
Assistindo o vídeo! é um trabalho maravilhoso! muito bem elaborado! muito profissional, criativo e dinâmico e funcional.mas eu não falo inglês.gostaria de entender o inglês.mas o canal acrescenta ótimo conhecimentos, parabéns pelo vídeo, muito obrigado por compartilhar conhecimentos tão importante.🙏🇧🇷🌱🐟🚌
I am understanding that it needs to be plugged in. Can you tell me how much electricity this draws? I am interested in using off grid.
Nice channel... I import these in bulk and sell them there a wonderful product.
Tel me more about that please
Can you tell me what is the watts consumption of the pump + LEDs?
Just orddered lights and they are on back order for who knows how long. Take my money but cant tell me a shipping date. Ive already planted my seedlings into the tower and am using a makeshift light....all I can do it wait
These are way too expensive for residential. Do you offer discount for multiple unit purchase?
It's nice to hear that this is using 90+% less water and space but can you give us an idea on how many kWh electricity this (the Tower Garden home) is using when indoor and the LEDs need to provide all light? With electricity prices as they are in some places in Europe, this is not a negligible cost. Thanks
If you’re buying one or two for your home you won’t notice anything. It only runs on a tiny little pump. Less energy than leaving a light in 24 hours. Led lights don’t require much electricity either
According to the spec about 300w per day (pump only). My genuine aeroponic towers use lees than 10w a day and they have 35 plant sites not 20.
Their LED`s are 125w so if you run for 16 hours on / 8 hours off that will be another 2kw a day. Note, they are only useful for lettuce and other low light plants.
@@atomizer2665 what is your source for towers? I would like to find something less expensive.
I love it,thank you.
Where can you get the tower gardens to buy
I have a tower I purchase a while back and have lost my contacts I need supplies for my two towers where can i get them ty
How do they grow so evenly? Won't these tall towers block sunlight for other towers?
wish i can afford one tbh they look perfect only thing i worry about is the metal poles and washers wingnuts surely leaches into plants?
Has anyone done any research on the roots absorption of micro-plastics, as the roots lay against the plastic inside the tower? Ive been planning to do a commercial grow towers set-up but just thought of this and am getting concerned. Perhaps a piece of fabric can serve as a barrier? Might get moldy though.
I did some research and discovered that even if the roots did absorb micro-plastics it wouldn't matter because we will certainly die from some other cause long before the micro-plastics would make us sick. You're welcome!
These were my thoughts also
Just awsome . Great video.
At end of video…..
Kim who? No last name or links to her videos?
What's is the circumference of your main tower pipes
Amazing, Thanks
I have the flex system, the pump come on every 15 or 20 minutes. I noticed the top of the planting pods are trying to mold. Is there to much moisture? I use indoors with the lights.
Terriffic informative video
What a great idea ❤️it
Παρακαλώ βάλτε κια μετάφραση GR ευχαριστώ
Can you grow heads of broccoli and cauliflower in these towers my opinion is I would think that you can considering that you can grow heads of lettuce but I just wanted to be sure so if anybody has the answer to that question I would really appreciate it
Yes you can but the leaves grow very large. You would have to put them in the lower ports so their leaves don't block the other ports.
Yes you can
I need help with mine, I’m in Sarasota, Florida and I am having problems, I need help.
Interested to buy tower garden set up. I'm from the Philippines. How can I get them from you
Maravilloso!! De qué materiales están hechos?
¡Hola Eco-Lógico! La torre está hecha de PC/ABS, con una fórmula UV-estabilizada y libre de BPA. Como es completamente opaco, mantiene la luz fuera e inhibe el crecimiento de algas, por lo que permite cultivar tanto en interiores como en interiores. Espero haber aclarado tu duda! Un saludo
Where is your farm located in Canada?
how much does one cost
I love this idea!! I didn’t see much fruit on these towers. What would you recommend fruit-wise for these towers?
strawberries. We mostly like to do herbs and greens of all kinds. Bigger fruits like watermelon take up a whole port for a while because it is a viney plant (takes longer and doesnt produce as much per root) which could be used more productively with leafy greens
I want to how and where can I order it ?
I really love the tower garden 💝
I would love to help you get one. I am a Distributor. Azure.essentialbeginnings@gmail.com
Why not sell Towers on Amazon?
How much is one for? and where can I order one?
Beautiful.
ich liebe den Towergarden ☺️
How many lettuce heads per tower
This is a lot of green, but very little food which people could actually sustain themselves with. It is a big herb garden. Yes, a tomato, kale, celery and some lettuce.... but no protein, carbs or root veggies.
Can I get this shipped to NZ?
Hi Tim, where did you purchase your grow lights used to start your seedlings? I didn’t have any success placing my starter tray at the base of my Home tower. Thanks in advance!!
At johnny seeds
Hello Tim. Remember me?
What if you want to grow things like alfalfa clover and sweet grass and rice
Tem como mandar para o Brasil? Tem manual em português?
Amazing 😁
Hi, if I want to get one of these Tower Garden to use in the Caribbean, will I need the LED lights?
If inside yes
Can you make it any taller?
Yes, you can buy extensions.
@@contentdeleted6559 actually the home model can't be extended I don't believe
Can you show us strawberries being grown
🍓
Do you have affiliate program?
You can be a partner and get a comission from the towers you sell. The brand is completely reliable
Are the towers made of polyethylene or something potable water grade plastic? So not to leach poison like the home made PVC units you see?
Yes
Where do I buy these taller towers?
You don't buy the taller ones you buy extension kits for them, but you can have it seven high with the in box pump before you need to buy the stronger pump
whats the required temperature to maintain in the tower garden?
Room temperature is fine. If your house is cold inside some plants will grow slower
@@ML-ov7wo thank you for the answer, I live in Fiji, and its a humid country. what degree of Celcius is ok?
Hashtag typo, unless you like growing your own foot 🦶😁
How much the tower garden for outside
its about $55 a month for the basic model for a year and then after a year it is paid off and it lasts for years and years. We have had ours for over 10 years
How do control aphids? I had such an infestation in my indoor Tower Garden. Used Neem oil all the time.
try to keep pests from coming in in the first place and make sure everything is grown indoors from the start. Also good to avoid being near aphids when going near or having aphids nearby the building with the tower garden
It takes extra work but you can manage.don’t let it get out of control. Pick off infested leaves, rinse in water, use water/soap solution. My aphids came in from my balcony. It was a pain at first but that’s part of gardening in or outside. If you have aphids you should tend to it 3 days a week. It’s work but it can be therapeutic and enjoyable
This isn't true aeroponics. You shouldn't have roots able to touche reservoir and the spray should be high pressure mist which this is not
Need battery operated pumps so I can put these in Bee yards
Good idea. Or solar operated water pumps. I’ve heard of those
I don't think this needed a CTO. These are all imported Chinese goods. Anyone could do this in their backyard. I don't see anything competitive.
ur opinion but i think it's cool :)
Not everyone has a backyard. Like me, an apartment dweller. This makes sense for me.
Sorry Tim great product but overpriced, while food prices are increasing globally, you gotta sacrifice too 600$ is too much
7:47 " you can smell the nutrition" 😂😂😂😂. What a Charlatan !!!
Pvc?
Good question I wander also
@@dalemitchell8492 nope not pvc it's a much more durable plastic
It is double UV protected food grade plastic
Misrepresentation by MLM. Its a good hobby. But, TG does not provide enough greens or veggies for even 1 person. Your electricity bill will increase by $10 per month, if you use grow lights for your seedlings, it will be an extra $10. Then add the cost of Mineral Blend, Rock wool, seeds, distilled water, insecticide spray.. Another $50 per month. If you buy seedlings then add $100 every 3 months. One needs to grow at least 6pods of lettuce to get enough salad for 1 person. Waiting period of 6 weeks before your salad is ready for use. So, you are still buying salad from grocery store 4 weeks out of every 6 weeks. In conclusion, TG is an expensive hobby. Time consuming and tedious. Also, realistically, only 60% seedlings will grow. Quite disappointing. You can use TG only if temp is 70 plus for at least 10 hours a day and night temp higher than 60. Basically.. 6 to 7 months a year. Then u need grow lights for indoor TG. Indoor TG is slow and not worth it. A total of $1000 per year. Just remember the amount of greens you can buy for $1000 per year..Hobby vs Objective decision making.
