Imagine if you could have a cheap, nutritious food source in your home that required no daily maintenance. While it may sound too good to be true, that is exactly what this company is doing.
As a means of tackling world hunger, innovative agricultural company Aggressively Organic has developed “Plant Pods”: a micro-gardening system that can grow more lettuce in a 10-foot room than on a half-acre of farmland.
The Plant Pods are built with a hydroponics-based system that revolves around soil-less gardening. This means that owners only need to water the pods every few weeks.
Not only is this beneficial for busy people who forget to water their plants, but it is also better for the environment. Planting lettuce in the ground requires roughly 25 gallons of water to grow; the pods, on the other hand, only require about 16 ounces.
