A self-contained aeroponic apparatus comprising a reservoir for containing a nutrient solution and a right-angular plant support standing over the upper edge of the reservoir and defining with it a closed chamber. The panels that form the plant support are releasably secured, along edges thereof that adjoin one another, in essentially watertight and light-tight conditions. Likewise, the lower edges of the support panels are releasably secured to the upper edge of the reservoir in watertight and light-tight conditions. Cups for holding plant structures are formed integrally with the inclined hypotenuse wall of the right-angular support. They are open-ended tapered tubes each of a size to snugly hold a plant structure. A nutrient solution spraying system within the chamber serves to supply the solution to the plant structures in the cups. It comprises spraying heads distributed at different levels along the backwall of the plant support; a pump in the reservoir and piping operatively joining the spraying heads and the pump to allow feeding nutrient solution to the spraying heads. |
