Hydroponics Tower

This is my mason jar/bucket hydroponics tower. This tower is designed for a wide mouth mason jar that the tower will not only thread onto but also fits the pump perfectly. we designed this for micro greens and other plants with a small root system. This model was designed to be print in place as long as adequate cooling is available and can fit in one shot on the K1 MAX. We recommend using Black filament as you want to keep out as much light as possible. Below I will add links to what you will need and the products this tower was built around.

Please keep in mind the type of lighting you will be using. PLA will hold up to grow lights, but not the sun. Make sure to paint or cover the jar to keep light and algae out of you system.

printing with ASA,ABS, or Pet-cf for best results from heat and sun

Update:
I have added a new base that will allow you to use a bucket as a reservoir instead of a wide mouth mason jar. You will need to cut a hole into the top of the bucket lid for the adapter to work. We have also added a spray nozzle for the end of the pump hose for better water distribution.
Please provide any feedback, we are always trying to improve our designs to better meet customer needs.
