Well, after having the iDOO hydroponic system a while, I realized that what I needed was two hydroponic systems. One for lettuce/greens, and one for tomatoes/fruits/large herbs. I was trying to do too much with one system. So, I bought a second (and cheaper) system made by hdroor just for lettuce/greens and will use the iDOO for the big herbs, tomatoes, and experimental stuff. I still have a lot growing in the iDOO, mainly tatsoi, so it will take some time before I can put those pods to use. On top of that, I have an Asphalt Rose Microgreens system and two bottles for growing microgreens. Oh, and a pepper I transplanted into a wicking pot that's just now growing peppers.

Here's my rather messy setup:



From left to right:

Pepper plant, empty microgreen jars, hdroor hydroponics, Asphalt Rose microgreens, iDOO hydroponics.

I don't know anything about it but it looks cool
 
There's a way to do it better - find it. -Edison. A better tiny ad:
