Tubegarden
A hydroponic allotment garden
Tubegarden offers a possibility to cultivate in a way adopted to modern urban circumstances. Hydroponics – cultivation without soil – is a technique normally used in the greenhouse industry. By using hydroponics the need for transport of soil to cities is eliminated.
Tubegarden is a product extracted from Green Fortunes 'hydroponic allotment gardens' exhibition at Kulturhuset, Stockholm. Creating hydroponic allotment gardens in urban locations allows for significant cultivation output in locations one thought would not be possible to use for growing food. Cultivation becomes a way to utilize urban wasteland. It is also possible to plant only decorative plants, giving an output of soul replenishment instead.
Tubegarden offers a possibility for architects and others to create modern allotment gardens, perhaps in urban rooftop greenhouses? Green Fortune offers it both in fixed standard versions as well as custom made versions.
For private consumers interested in do-it-yourself, we also offer Tubegarden as a free blowup – sketch, giving everybody a possibility to create their own allotment garden.
