The
ROTOGRO garden is a flood and drain system. Plants are inserted into
Rockwool type cubes, which are secured in the "quick drain trays".
The garden is motorized and the trays revolved 24/Hrs a day around
two center fixed HID Lamps.
It takes
approximately one hour for the trays to complete one revolution. A
pump is placed in the bottom main reservoir and when switched on, fills
the top reservoir to desired depth. The "quick drain trays" are
then revolved through the nutrient/water mixture feeding the plants.
Once all the plants have been fed, the pump is switched off letting
the nutrient/water mixture drain back into the main reservoir.
