<p>This actually works better than hydroponics using reactive reagents because there is little salting, so much less maintenance. There is a word for that: salting and constriction of the apertures due to chemicals coming in contact with oxygen. In hydroponics a perforated tube needs to be chemically treated while PVC tubes need to have their bores cleaned/ re-punched. I add one to three fresh pisses a week during spring and early summer, then about 1.5 to 2 L of processed urine about once a…</p>

<p>This is the basis of my greenwall system. It is merely a hydroponic system that I experiment with for the past four years, testing different materials and plant cultivars for Beijing's unusual climate. I'll try to write a blog about greenwalls if you are interested.…</p>

<p>Yeah Carey, give us the run down on the system. Pretty impressive looking :) I remember seeing some similar if not these fotos some time ago on your page, had no idea the were pee-ponics, I think they were just labeled as experimental wall something...</p>

<p>Carey,</p>
<p> Beautiful. (I'm really interested in how those plants are growing, what sort of system is it? Perhaps needs it's own thread.)</p>

<p>TC, that is still <em>the </em> definitive thread on the topic. I remember the first two times that I read it, being really quite surprised at the amount of psychological resistance to the idea, and all the (well to me anyways) rather skewed logic behind some of that resistance. A <em>really </em>good read at any rate.</p>

<p>These plants were grown with Pee-ponics. Notice the ripe tomato and flowering plants.</p>
