It allows the plants to use the natural light, organic soil and of course, this is the best use of your space. The water that is spiced with nutrients is pumped at the base and trickles down from each bottle. This ensures that the plant roots are well watered. The nutrients and water that are not absorbed collect in the reservoir and are pumped again.
