Hydroponics Project part 1 - Backyard Hydroponic Strawberries

Today I got the top part of the DIY aeroponics channel done.  So far I am $60 in ($22 of which is a hole saw!) and have another $40 to go.  Luckily there is a lot of left over parts, and should be able to build a second one which I left room for, for about $20.  This one is set up for strawberries and it has room for 10 plants.

The lettuce tank will go underneath the aeroponics channel.  There is another light bank but I have to figure out a better way to secure them.  They will get full spectrum 1000 lumen CFLs, so total for 4 lights is 100 watts or so.  Not bad.
