Blueprint 1: 3D Schematic Overview Perspective: Front view of the 3-tiered system. Dimensions: Total Height: 6 feet (1.8 meters). Base: 4 ft x 3 ft (1.2 m x 0.9 m). Key Components: Bottom Tier: Circular fish tank (50-gallon capacity) with a duckweed pond attached. Middle Tier: Vertical PVC pipes (4-inch diameter) arranged in a zig-zag pattern for plant growth. Top Tier: Solar panel (12V) + miniature wind turbine mounted above a rainwater barrel. Back Panel: Chalkboard-painted wall for tracking pH, temperature, and growth data. Blueprint 2: Top-Down Layout Structure: Fish Tank: Centered at the base, connected to a bell siphon for gravity-fed water cycling. Vertical Grow Beds: PVC pipes arranged diagonally to maximize sunlight/LED exposure. Solar/Wind Combo: Panel and turbine positioned to avoid shading from nearby structures. Duckweed Pond: Small adjacent container (10-gallon) with a mesh divider to prevent fish access. Blueprint 3: Side View Cross-Section Mechanics: Water Flow: Fish See more
