I just bought a Volksgarden about 1.5 months ago and I can say that many of the points that you are all stating are in fact not true. First of all the volksgarden rotates the plants constantly. This moves auxins to the stem faster than simply growing a plant in a pot and it makes it so that the plants reach toward the light in the center. Now the plants do not move opposite gravity. This is what they would normally do in any situation. They even warn you on the site that if you turn off the little rorating motor the plants will start moving up opposite gravity. And you only want to run the water pump about once every few days. This is because the rockwool soaks up so much water if you water them too much then the roots don't get enough air. It is a pretty sweet set up and I am patiently waiting for my first harvest even tho I screwed a lot of things up the first time. But I knew it was going to be a learning process. But the benefits are incredible if I can get it to work. You can theoretically have up to 80 plants in this thing. And the plants are incredibly short yet can yield so much. I can honestly say tho that it is quite expensive. Mine was 2400 including shipping to me. So if you want to get in to this you gotta be aware of that initial cost. Other than that, this thing is pretty sweet.
. Cool thought though
