» hdnute - watering system for primitive hydroponics

Your article (Feb 22)on the primitive,gravimetric hydroponics did not describe the watering system in enough detail for me. Where could I find either a more detailed description or the original article? Thanks

In response to message posted by hdnute:

Hello, the system is basically similar to some growing techniques utilized by the Aztecs, Babylonians, and other ancient agriculturally adept civilizations where plants are grown on a slope or gradient and nutrient solution is manually carried or pumped to a reservoir (bucket) on the high side which is connected to a simple delivery system such as drip lines, or hoses, i.e. gravity fed. I'll find or make a picture for you.

I am a first starter with hydroponics - I am a full time mom that loves to garden but don't have enough space for it. I have become interested in hydroponics because of this reason and because I want ot have tomatoes all year round. Where can I start learning and experimenting?
thank you, sandra
