The hydroponic experiment. Timer comes on every two hours, pumping hydroponic solution via a garden fountain pump into the upper container. Cups are filled with perlite, the water comes in and hydrates/feeds the plants, then flows through holes in the plastic container back into the container below. I've planted lettuce, two kinds of mesclun mix, one tomato plant and a radish. Now hide and watch. I didn't put everything in black plastic, so it'll probably turn green and mossy.
