Getting old and everything that goes with it. All the repeats on TV. The drongos who ring me up to sell me things. Religious havens for pedophiles and war-mongers.
I can't find the right place for this, it looks good, is anyone doing it for fresh leafy veg?

The University of Hawaii has developed a simple hydroponic system that is set and forget.

It is a plastic file box with the plants dangling in water. It works because the air gap varies as the plants grow - no pumps and no top ups.

It is called the Kratky method and there are lots of videos to watch.

Set it up and harvest in 6 weeks.
