I used plastic bottles to make a vertical garden producing food

Did you know you could use plastic bottles, to make your own vertical garden and grow food in any space? Over the past years I built different versions of this vertical garden using plastic bottles and it works great because it takes up minimal space and with just a small amount of water you can irrigate the whole system. You can also place a pot or similar under it so the excess water it’s not wasted.
