Tower Farming Outdoors
$49.00
Tower Farming Outdoors is a 114-page publication across 14 chapters, written for anyone planning, building, or operating an aeroponic Tower Farm in the open air, from a backyard system to a large commercial operation.
Where our other e-books focus on growing crops, Tower Farming Outdoors tackles the challenges unique to the outdoor environment: sloped land and terracing, tower surfaces and drainage, outdoor seedling production, wind, extreme heat, frost, hurricanes, wildlife and birds, pollination, water treatment, and the physical infrastructure that holds the farm together.
Every chapter is based on real-world experience from Tower Farms in more than 60 countries across six continents. It gives you the practical decisions to get right before construction begins, so you build a more efficient, resilient, and productive outdoor Tower Farm from the ground up.

3. Why don't we publish a printed version as a physical book?
4. Is this e-book for home growers or for commercial Tower Farms?
A Tower Farm is a fully automated system built around a minimum of 10 commercial-grade aeroponic towers, with an automated irrigation and nutrient dosing system that delivers water and nutrients to each tower according to the needs of the crops it is growing.
This publication is not intended for home growers running a single tower (residential models).
Whether your farm has 10 towers or several hundreds, the core planning, infrastructure, and operational principles covered in this book remain the same.
