Hydroponic Farmimg
I was referred to you by the Extension Agent in Delaware. They don't have any experience with the types of Tower Gardening systems that are on this website www.futuregrowing.com. I was wondering if you have any experience with these. They are in use at Living Towers Farm & The GreenHouse in Central FLA among many other locations according to their website.

Hallo,
Yes, I have experience with these vertical growing systems and I hope I will be of use concerning your next question.
Dr. Ogutu
Is there one in Southern DE that we can visit?
What are the common pests in Southern DE / Northeastern MD other than deer?
This is a picture fo the ones we are looking at.....
Other than weather what are the issues with having these outside not enclosed in a greenhouse?
Are there any particular crops you have in mind in relation to pests in Southern Delaware and Northern Maryland?
In connection to the vertical hydroponic systems- problems could result from poor ventillation with overgrown plants, root pruning of some plants is essential to prevent the clogging of the system. In this system- water contamination with any disease innoculants spreads very fast. I have not seen tower gardens around delaware but I have worked with in the Mid-west- specifically Kansas and Missouri.
