How To Set Up A Hydro-Herb Kit


How to set up a Hydro-Herb Kit

Here I show you how to set up a Hydro-Herb kit to grow your own fresh herbs using a hydroponic system made from a recycled wine bottle. Each kit contains all the parts needed to grow some herbs, with kits available for many popular herbs including Basil, Thyme, Oregano and Coriander. I take you through the instructions to show how easy it is.

The Hydro-Herb kits are as environmentally sound as the manufacturers can make them, with parts sourced carefully to ensure as small a carbon footprint as possible. All the parts in the kit are either recycled and recyclable or entirely biodegradable. 

The wine bottles that form the largest part of the kit are reused rather than recycled locally minimising any carbon production from melting the glass down or transport. The capillary matting is recycled and the plastic bottles in the kit (containing the nutrient liquid) are also made from recycled plastic that may itself be recycled. The Jiffy Pellets (growing medium) are made of coir (ground coconut husk) rather than peat, therefore not contributing to the reduction of peat bogs. The cork lid/place mat comes from renewable sources in Europe as do the natural rubber band. The terracotta pebbles used in the kit along with the cork and natural rubber band are all biodegradable. 

For an eco-friendly gift idea, how about a Hydro-Herb Gift Set?
