Tomato cuttings with
blooms and fruits taken from 'mother plants'.
Cuttings are inserted into the Aeroponic chamber.
Tomato cuttings develop new
root sytems within 3 to 5 days.
Rooted cuttings removed
from the chamber are
transplanted into rockwool
bags or soil containers.
Drippers are placed next
to the tomato plant stems.
Plants double in size and leaf
mass within 7 days.
Tomato plants are tied
up to support the heavy crop.
The tomato crop completed tied into
position to allow light to reach all areas
of the plant and ripening tomatoes.
The tomato crop quickly
doubles again in size and mass
producing more blooms and fruits.
Step 7:
By the 25th day the tomatoes
ripen on the lower portion
of the plants.
The upper portions of the tomato
plants are full of fruits.
By the 27th day ripe tomatoes
appear all over the plants.
On day 30 ripen tomatoes
are harvested from the plant.
Each plant yields a significant
number of ripe tomatoes for
market.
Step 12:
Ready for market : 3 tomatoes = lbs
