Many vertical farming towers are a lot if you want to grow a lot. 700$ is each one that can grow 52 vegetables each, 208 for herbs. I wanted to do an aquaponics/aeroponics combination. I also have questions about the aquaponics side since a website referenced that the water for the fish should be the same amount for the plants. Aeroponics doesn't have a basin with water. I have no idea how to formulate an equation or how to figure that out as well. They both go together.



What should also be noted is that I'm planning on using only HDPE and PP plastic for this whole endeavor. A lot of websites suggest that you should use PVC and I'm not down with using PVC.



I'm in the planning stages right now because I'm trying to figure out a simple solution and figure out what I need to do so that I'm very prepared when I get back to the US. I plan to purchase a decent chunk of land (25 acres/10 hectares) to do all of this on.



TL;DR I'd prefer not to spend 70k$ for vertical farming towers to grow vegetables and how many fish I'd need for how many plants or some other variable.

how about you start small to figure out the ratio before even buying 1 acre of land.

I'll buy 25 acres no matter what. I'm doing this. I just want to know what information other people have. Other than start with a fish and a plant.
