Analyzing Topic

 Topic: Comparative efficiencies of horizontal versus vertical hydroponics plant growth system.

Type of project: Design, build and test. 

Since this project is design, build and test, one standard horizontal system will be compared to by a selected designed vertical system. Thus, three conceptual designs must be analyzed and one design must be chosen. 

Comparative- Both system must be designed to test the same number of growing slots, types of crops, tested under the same environmental conditions and same nutrient water so that they can be compared equally. 

Efficiencies- Test the quality of the plants grown by both system. 

Define horizontal and vertical systems.
