Especially that video of the double 5 gallon growing bucket that you made.<BR/><BR/>I've got 30 of those homemade tubs on my garage roof. This year I'm trying to automate the watering using a reservoir filled with a Hudson valve and a series of siphoned/vaccumed tubes. Sounds complicated, but it's basically a giant water level....... Back to the point I was trying to make -<BR/><BR/>We're thinking alike, Pollan's "Why Bother?" is a great argument for doing this kind of stuff.<BR/><BR/>My friend and neighbor <A HREF="http://www.flickr.com/photos/1904grg/sets/72157603959350377" REL="nofollow">Heidi</A> took the pics. She and her partner Art are doing the same thing on their roof, using the 5 gallon buckets.<BR/><BR/>I also wrote a <A HREF="http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/4/10/151359/130/899/493357" REL="nofollow">"diary"</A> about it at Daily Kos , the blog for obsessive technocrats, that you might want to check out.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again for the post.BruceFhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04901484046810490059noreply@blogger.com
