Permaculture is a system of ecological design that strives to emulate natural ecosystems so that our gardens and farms become self-sustaining, healthy and bountiful. It seeks to create gardens and landscapes that arrange all the elements of the design in ways that maximize the synergy of the design while minimizing the need for human inputs such as labour, fertilizer and pesticides. Trees and idea of forest gardening play a big part. Increasingly the principles of permaculture are being adapted for homes, even in the cities and suburbs.

We’re checking in on the Kratky hydroponic lettuce. This is the setup that doesn’t use any type of aeration or water pump. Therefore, no electricity is needed.
Things are looking great, with almost basketball sized heads of lettuce. I’ve said this before, it’s a case of “Set it, and forget it”. It is so simple that anybody can do it. And you don’t need a 4×8 plywood box either.
This can be done in much smaller totes with lids to support the plants. I continue to be very impressed with the quality of the vegetables and plan to use this setup a lot more in the future.
