The self watering bottle planter insert allows a regular bottle to be transformed into a hydroponic planter. The self watering bottle planter insert is insertable into a bottle and removes the need for a separate source of nutrients. The planter uses composite media with an enriched substrate layered beneath a more standard hydroponic growth media to add nutrients to the water for the life cycle of the plant.

A hydroponic system is provided. The system includes a grow assembly. The grow assembly includes a body including at least one aperture, and a porous layer. The system may include a support to support the grow assembly. The system includes a fluid table that may be disposed underneath the body. The system includes a fluid reservoir that may be disposed underneath the fluid table. The system may include a fluid pump in fluid communication with the fluid reservoir. The system includes a fluid riser in fluid communication with the fluid reservoir and the fluid table. A method for utilising a hydroponic system is also provided.

Hydroponics systems and apparatus for operation in zero-gravity and low-gravity environments are disclosed herein. An apparatus can include an elongated main body having an inlet end, an outlet end, and a channel disposed between the inlet end and the outlet end. The channel can include a first portion, and a second portion. The first portion can include surfaces that are inwardly tapered in a direction from the second portion to the first portion. The second portion can include at least one opening such that a portion of a plant can extend through the at least one opening. Fluid can flow through the channel.
