SUFI’s announcement reads:
A few weeks ago Larry showed us how hydroponics is an alternative to in-ground gardening for growing fruits and vegetables. Now he is going to show us how to create our own hydroponics garden. If you think hydroponics may be a viable alternative for you, go buy a 5-gal container like the ones pictured in the attachment (I found mine at Lowes in Idaho Falls) and come prepared to start your own hydroponics garden.
Larry provided the following links for other items he uses. You don’t need everything for the workshop but do bring your boxes and Larry will cut out the tops for you.
