I remember thinking; WOW farmbot this is awesome! Then; oh shit all my watering methodologies involved highly oxygenated nutrient solution A LA DWC NFT Aeroponics or EbbnFlow and not one of these methods employs TOP DOWN watering!
But after some serious consideration I realized that Top-Down watering is a requisite for ALOT of Farmbots commercial applications. Yeah it’s being marketed for home and garden but that’s more or less because capitalism. Honestly Farmbot is still in it’s infancy. Do not for a second doubt what is possible, or how “smart” this idea is. There’s a reason it was featured in singularityhub.com <---- those are some of the smartest folks in the world.
