Description
Experimental vertical hydroponics system I have designed for growing Herbs indoors.
Things you will need for the assembly:
M5x40 button head cap screws (x18)
M5 nuts (x18)
M8 threaded bar (730mm minimum)
M8 nuts (x8)
M8 washers (x8)
½ inch BSP hose adapter fittings for the inlet and outlet manifolds, I use 10mm hose for the inlet, 16mm for the outlet.
3 inch Net cups (x11)
Some print in place sacrificial layers will need to be removed:
FRAME - Holes for the M8 threaded bar - Use an 8mm drill bit
TOP MANIFOLD - Centre feed tube - Use a flat ended screwdriver or countersink bit
PODS - Top of net cup socket and mounting holes - Use a sharp blade.
CHANGE LOG 7/11/25:
Updates to the TOP Manifold, now fixed to the frame in a similar way to the Lower manifold using two M5x40 Buttonhead cap screws. also includes a new top frame section to affix the manifold onto.
Other changes include refined fluid channels and agitator nozzles for even flow distribution.
CHANGE LOG:
Update to the TOP Manifold agitators, the centre agitator is marked.
Here is the pump I have been using without any issues:
I recommend using at least 25W
Thank you for the interest and support!
