Simple mod to improve the 5-fold version of the the amazing Modular Hydroponic Tower Garden

Parts are fully compatible, just some minor changes:

Standard Pot

enlarged the net cups, so they match the height of the standard size versions for the 3-way version - this way they get a bit more volume and catch more of the water, dripping down the center - the angle is a bit different, so they don't collide with eachother and the holes are a bit bigger than in the original (5,75 to 5 mm instead of constant 4 mm

5-Way Module

also i changed the spoke design to 5-fold, since the spokes sit right between the pots and diverge the waterstream a bit, so also a bit more uniform wetting of the roots

 

Important Notes

be aware, that the 5-way modules are pretty tight in space, so don't plan to grow anything big in there - like a full head of lettuce or a tomato plant - it is intended for smaller plants, like herbs that don't require much space
