Needs Statement We are addressing the problem of environmental sustainability at BCI by using hydroponics to keep BCI clean and cool.

What Is a Hydroponic System? Hydroponics is the process of growing plants in liquid with added nutrients but without soil

Plants In The Air

Hydroponic Examples

Hydroponic Examples (2)

How Do Hydroponics Work?

Hydroponic Prototype

Hydroponic Prototype (2)

Cost Analysis Setup Costs Complete system is $2800, includes 6’x12’ table, 288 plant sites, water tank, pump, plumbing, nutrients, and seeds* Costs Per Crop Seeds ($5/250 seeds), Nutrients ($25/10 lbs), Water <1 cent/gallon), Kid Power (free!) * Greenhouse Megastore SKU: HP-AMH-612

The Benefits Of Hydroponics Uses less energy & water than a regular garden Plants will emit oxygen and make air fresher Extremely space efficient Make campus more interesting Provides fresh fruits and veggies

Location and Measurement Location Between Maker space and servery Next to four square courts Measurement 10 feet long 4 feet wide 5 feet tall Can hold about 1,795 gallons

Conclusion A hydroponics garden showcases environmental sustainability and also: Encourages scientific curiosity Displays innovative thinking Provides an opportunity for more science projects (ex: study nutrients)
