Using 3D-printed parts and recyclable bottles, we’ve created an open source hydroponics system called 3Dponics. It’s eco-friendly, low-maintenance, energy-efficient, local and, best of all, FREE! You start growing your own organic produce—eat, sell or trade what you grow. We’ll provide you with the 3D-printed components you’ll need to set your system up. Once you’ve got the parts, setting up is super simple, and we provide step-by-step instructions on our website 3Dponics.com
