Saw a video on you tube about that a couple weeks ago. Seems interesting. Has anyone here tried it ? Did you have good results ? What is your overall opinion ?

Thanks in advance, No Dandy

I have not, but here are a few photos. I may have to try this on the west side of our house, we're at the point that the only place to go now is upwards.

I might be able to swing this concept below.

This one isn't up against a building, I like this idea even better and have space at the ends of my raised beds for this type of gutter gardening.

Indoors, there's about $500 alone in installed duct work, just what's in the pic. Must be nice to have a central HVAC system in a green house.

Well if wishes were dollars, then I'd have a conservatory or greenhouse attached to my house to use as my year round studio and would be surrounded by plants, birds, and butterflies, of all t types. So yes it would need a central HVAC system.

Word of caution

Do not use metal gutters. Any nutrient you use will acidify the water and media causing the to rapidly rust or corrode. Not to mention the highly oxygenated water.

You can buy actual hydroponic NFT channels rather cheaply. Mostly around 20-30 bucks for 8 feet. For a few hundred you can have a large proper system. If you put it together yourself.

Or even a full system if your not handy.. Tho it would also come with all you need.
