Hey FL window farmers, I am also moving into condo/house soon.. and will be trying my hand with this window farming.
I am not 100% sure though since I feel that deriving the plant from soil is wrong and all the Microorganisms that are abundant in the soil too! Also why the hell is the lady using Plastic bottles lol doesn’t she know that those are TOXIC? The plant absorbs it and then you eat it.. yum!!
There are ways around these issues and I hope to it that this group will do something about it..

Hi Carlos,
The nature of open source techniques, I hope you’ll agree, is that participants build on the trial and error of the rest of the group. It’s up to all the individuals to carry the project forward by identifying the pit falls of their pre-runners and then, most importantly, experimenting and suggesting more developed ideas. The more participant, the more suggestions, the more developed the project becomes.
To that end, perhaps you could suggest an alternative the recycled plastic bottle technique currently in use?

I have seen others try clay pots.

As well as wine bottles.
