I thought I would respond with my own - I’ve been trying to design some low energy indoor gardens from recycled materials. I think that’s permaculture?
Of course I make it sound much fancier than it is. I just keep old containers, fill them with water, and then stick old aerogarden seed planters in the top and grow them hydroponically. I’ve had some luck growing jalapeno peppers and just recently tried cherry tomatoes. I got a few tiny ones :)
I think I’d maybe like to scale up to a hydroponic tower type setup, I’m not sure. Looking for ideas.
I’ve definitely tried to compost and failed. I think I tried to go too big and I think maybe I didn’t account enough for the dry air in the sonoran desert. Whats your compost process like? Does it take much watering?
I do have a local worm farm that lets me pick up compost for super cheap, which is nice - but I’d still like to make better use of my kitchen scraps.
