Window Hydroponics for Strawberries and Herbs

I ran across this Windowfarm mini hydroponics system, and it seemed such a great fit for the Green Living blog. The best part? It is so easy to make, and cheap to operate.  

This vertical, hydroponic growing system allows for year-round growing in almost any window. It lets plants use natural window light, the climate control of your living space, and organic "liquid soil."

In the hydroponic system, nutrient-spiked water is pumped up from a reservoir at the base of the system and trickles down from bottle to bottle, bathing the roots along the way. Water and nutrients that are not absorbed collect in the reservoir and will be pumped through again at the next interval.

You can even get a little solar controlled pump and rechargeable battery for making it even more green.
