    This will be fantastic if the cost of the dome doesn't wipe out your savings account.
    Wonderful alternative to those of us forced to consume crap veggies from over seas all winter.

    Awesome. I love articles like this about innovative people finding new ways of doing things. This particular idea could really take off.

    Not really new, aeroponics has been around since the 80s and I've visited a few... but he's really made it smaller and more efficient.

    Exactly. More practical for consumer use. One to add to my "watch list".

    I had a client who would bring me aeroponic Caesar lettuce in the water they use to grow it. Put it on my kitchen counter and it would still be good 2 weeks after I got it.

    No kidding?! Then I'm definitely going to be watching this. Most of our stuff is coming from freakin' Mexico, Guatemala and Timbuktu. You're lucky if your produce lasts in the fridge for more than two before it turns bad.

    Don't know where the hell I'd put the thing though! Our back yard and "parking lot" are both full. :lol:
