ABSTRACT:
A hydroponic device includes a hollow housing which defines a substantially closed lower chamber for receiving a liquid nutrient solution and a top open-ended upper chamber for receiving an inert filler material and the desired vegetation which are separated by a partition wall. At least one nutrient supply pipe is coupled to the partition wall and extends downwardly into the lower chamber. The supply pipe has a throughput bore extending therethrough to establish fluid communication between the upper chamber and the lower chamber, whereby the nutrient solution may be fed in a continuous cycle from the lower chamber to the upper chamber and back again.
