Thank you!! I am glad you like it! Feel free to use it if you can find a use for it too : )
I am just learning about piefed from this. I am always so behind on things hahaha
Oh! Good to know! I would absolutely be fine with the information on the wiki I made being moved elsewhere. I just set it up to try and help people, so if its more helpful in a different wiki, that’s fine too.
wiki.sunbeam.city
I have never heard of that! Thanks so much for sharing. I will absolutely go look around there

2·2 years agoThanks for explaining that! Your system looks great(it is even cat approved).
I am thinking of just starting with some leafy greens (like Swiss chard, kale, or spinach) on a budget, but there are so many different hydroponic builds it can get overwhelming haha. I will look more into the DWC system!

3·2 years agoI could be wrong, but I don’t think you can grow all plants in hydroponics. For example, anything that grows on trees(large root systems) as well as grain crops (where you need a lot of plants together, rather in individual pods like in most hydroponics).
The only alternative I can think of is a greenhouse system. Like what indoor botanical gardens use for trees, but instead designed for farming. That would be expensive(more than farmers could afford), but it would also weather-protect crops.
But you are right about hydroponics or aquaponics for a lot of produce, though!
Some do! The food forest method is very popular with fans of permaculture, and companion planting (like The Three Sisters) is sometime brought up in the community.
As far as I know (I have never 3D printed), yes. I vaguely remember a guy who tows around a 3D printer on his bike into parks, and prints parts for people. It wouldn’t be instant(I’m guessing they tell the person to come back later), but it is possible. I’ll try to find the video haha.
Keeping in mind I’ve never 3D printed, here are some sites that look promising.

Also, I’ve seen tutorials for 3D printing on Instructables, and people sometimes give download files in the instructions.
This one doesn’t list all of them, but it has some: https://www.repaircafe.org/en/visit/
This site might help with planning!
It looks like there are some! https://www.repaircafe.org/en/visit/













Update: I added many more pages. Hope they help!
