Hydroponic tower diffuser

thingiverse

I devised a straightforward method to distribute water flow evenly across all sides of my grow tower, so I came up with this solution. A pump positioned beneath in the reservoir drives the hose upward through the diffuser's center and trickles down through progressively larger holes. This setup is designed for a 5-inch square PVC fence post but can be scaled up or down as needed. You can secure it by screwing directly into the post or, like I did, drill and tap the part to run screws from the inside out, attaching it without penetrating the post. A clamp above the diffuser keeps the hose in place. The accompanying image is from an earlier iteration, but a flush center post proved more effective. The new version is installed and functioning smoothly.
