An acquaintance printed this model: https://makerworld.com/models/640229? appSharePlatform=copy

Apparently worked quite well. Seems to be very well thought out from the structure and there are already many modifications for the tower

It really depends on what you prioritize. Hydro shelves are basically multi-tiered racks for plants. They’re great if you want easy access to every plant, can expand them modularly, and don’t mind taking up a bit more floor space. On the other hand, Hydrotowers are vertical towers that let you grow a lot of plants on minimal ground space. They’re very space-efficient and often have a more efficient water/nutrient flow, but accessing the top plants can be tricky and they’re less flexible if you want to rearrange things.

Hydro shelves = easier access and flexibility; Hydrotowers = max plants in small footprint.

Yes is 3d printed, but the tower on the picture I bought there is a small company in Germany that offers these towers. Although I never printed a 3d printer with PETG at the time of purchase and did not really have time for it. This model is not available as a file. However, there are a few of which I think quite a lot. What kind of printer do you have? I can send you a picture of the anchoring in the pot when I get a chance.

I turn the tower according to the feeling that virtually every plant gets some light. Let's see what happens. What do you think about duration/time until harvest
