Introduction
In this resource students will attempt to develop a low-cost hydroponic growing system that minimises its environmental impact through re-use of waste to create the growing chambers and minimising energy usage by lights, pumps etc. They will also provide simple advice so that people could try to assemble these low-cost kits at home.
