I have been quite fascinated with the idea for decades. The eventual idea after some time is to make it possible for people in apartments, they would be mounted to the sides of balconies for people to use.

Yeah, these are right in line with what I have been wanting to see for a long time. Could you imagine the difference it could make, even in our sense of community in regions where there is little park area to look out on a building and see different colored cascading plants on balconies that people grow..? It provides some fresh veggies if needed, or even a sense of well being. Kids like it. I think it is good. I had an idea for an external hydroponic (for veggies! :o) ) one that a building would work into its design, that is the future of architecture.
