Has any body ever used any of the new rotating growing machines I've seen advertised in various places? Is this the new trend in hydroponics? Some of them are massive, up to six hundred plants. My question is do they work as well as advertised?

I hear they grow very well tho sorry for not answering your question. I have seen 2 grows with rotating contraptions and they all produce alot. I forget the numbers but I almost didnt believe it. If you can get one do it and Youll get mad props from me that'd be sick!

doctorgreeneggsandham, I've seen them for far less that what you quoted, more like 3,000/6,000 depending on where and whom you buy from, holding about 600 plants or so. You do think that they are good producers tho? I see that they are being considered for urban growing by some cities, so they must be okay.

doctorgreeneggsandham, are you sure about the price? How big is this contrapion? the one I'm talking about holds about six hundred plants and cost about three or four thousand dollars. I saw a huge one planned for urban growth sometime in the future. If they are to be used by cities they must be worth the money on a smaller scale.
