Windowfarmers in Berlin? Advice on starting?

Hallo… mein Deutsch ist nicht so gut. I moved to Berlin recently and would love to set one of these up. It would be fairly expensive to get the kit sent from the US I guess. Have you made one yourselves or know where to buy one in Berlin? Many thanks for any advice!
Hi there,
if you take a look at the link I posted in the Germany section below your entry, you’ll find a rather stylish and uncomplicated version that uses funnels.
If you choose to make it, here’s your Einkaufszettel
:
Aquarienluftpumpe, leise (Eheim seems to be making good ones)
Schlauch
T-Stück
(Plastik-/Metall-)Trichter
Kette (from the hardware store; the model I linked to has wire, but I think chains will make things easier to mount)
S-Haken
Dünger
and a tall vase (that’s called … yes, a ‘Vase’) as reservoir.
… and of course:
Blähton
something to keep the Blähton from clogging up the funnel, a plastic Teesieb perhaps.
hi.
i also plan to build a farm in berlin, without getting a kit. but i doubt i can give you good advice so far. i got a pump today… so we will see..
Cool. I haven’t gotten much together yet. Please post back on how it goes! Where did you get the pump?
