You really should have paid more attention to explain to people that waterproofing and damp shielding is a very important part of building a green wall like this. Some people will think its just a matter of mounting these grow bags on a wall , because that is all that they actually see in the video.
The bags are lined and hold the water, only small amounts of water are automatically dispensed into the soil. The wall that Jed attaches his bags to is waterproof drywall commonly used in bathrooms. However, the wall never really gets wet. He just did that as a precaution.
I would imagine that if you left the wall untreated, it would get water damage. So it might be a good idea to paint the wall with some sort of polyester coating, (the stuff they paint on to boat hulls to make them waterproof), or maybe just glue on a waterproof membrane. You can buy it in rolls. Or maybe even glue-on some PVC or polyester panels. If waterproofing your walls is a requirement for constructing your bathroom, then at the very least, it would have to be requirement for constructing your vertical garden, in order to protect your wall. And also, it would probably be a good idea to build a trough underneath the vertical garden, so it can collect all the dripping water and then either, a) drain away the water or b) pump it back to the top of the garden. The trough can then be self contained and wouldn't need to be directly connected to plumbing, as you could just fill it up periodically.
The pockets do have plenty of space in them. Eventually, they would have to be pruned or replaced, but they would last in the pockets for quite a while.

Hydroponic plant food. Lots of detail not covered here. Most important one being an effective vapor barrier to shield the drywall from excess humidity.
If installed correctly, there shouldn't be any excess water. A long tray or basin the width of the wall under the bags would catch any drips and keep the floor dry.
The irrigation system only waters very briefly twice a day. It keeps the soil moist, but not dripping. Watering manually would also be much more difficult given the height of the plants.
Lol.....yep ..... If you want to do it right , start by building a proper shower alcove style wet area , complete with floor drain , that would be my advice. Especially on a new build like this one !
looks cool, but soil will need fertilizer eventually, and using fertilizer is bad for the environment. better to use planting methods where you can amend the soily easily with home made or community sourced compost.
It sounds as though it could be a disaster, but there are protections in place. The wall is a waterproof drywall that is commonly used in bathrooms, and the bags are lined to hold the water. Only small amounts of water are distributed automatically into the soil at a time, so the wall really never gets wet.

The store had a rubber membrane. Nice.
Bathroom dry wall exposed to moisture constantly... will have tiles.
Is there any concern that the wall behind it will get water damage? Also do the pockets drip with excess moisture? is mold a concern?

Hi Samantha. Since the pockets are lined and made out of recycled plastic, they are watertight. And the wall behind them is waterproof drywall.
What happens with the wall behind? Doesn't it get covered in mold after few months/years?
no, geotextile leave moisture and air to pass through
Hi, looks great. where can I buy those pockets with tubes? Thanks
You can buy the pocket planters here: wallygrow.com/collections/pocket-wall-planters.
Omg, this green wall is just amazing! :)
ruclips.net/video/a3ij1C7nbEE/видео.html
It is amazing, isn't it? Thank you for watching!
Very nice where are you from
how do you make the water not stink? ours is getting a kind of soilish kind of mildewish smell. I would describe as pond waterish
Where can we get the auto water timer?
Can you share where to purchase this product
Where can we buy the pockets and watering system?
You can find the bag here: wallygro.com.
Can't I just have this on EVERY WALL in my home?🤔 I think YYEESSS
Be our guest! We suggest you start with one wall and see how it goes first, though.
very informative for my next project! thank you!
You're welcome! Good luck with your project!
Looks beautiful but won’t you have to repot the plants somewhat quickly? The pockets don’t seem very big. Seems like a lot of work.
The pockets do have plenty of space in them. Eventually, they would have to be pruned or replaced, but they would last in the pockets for quite a while.
Nice 👍🏾
Thanks for watching!
what about water draining ? you've installed pockets directly to the wall ? what about protection aginst moisture ? the wall would soak

Could you tell us where to find/purchase these recycled plastic canvas type pouches where the light weight soil goes in?
Google plant pockets....

Nice job, how about the nutrition? Do you have to go and do it manually?
Hydroponic plant food.

@@harryme472 exactly my thoughts, they’re going to have one mouldy ass wall behind that felt, if not rotten drywall
So much missing from this video!
The fertilizer is piped in with the water.
@@harryme472 The wall behind the bags is waterproof drywall that is used in bathrooms.

Wow that's hilarious 👌👍👏👏👏💚💯
Is it possible to make a vertical greenhouse on outer walls of a building too?
We can't see why not!
I am a new subscriber. Thanks for this great video.
You're very welcome!
Hi, please name some plants for vertical garden to grow by hydroponics without a soil, coco peat & any other compost material.
Anything you can grow in soil , peatmoss and organic media can be grown with hydoponics.
Most foliage houseplants would be fine. Succulents, cacti, and desert plants would not be good choices.
Where goes the excess of the water?
Right into your wall and flooring - creating a huge mold problem, asthma and other respiratory ailments, pest problems, wood rot, etc.
@@donkeydarko77 your answer is about your experience or is just your assumption?
If installed correctly, there shouldn't be any excess water. A long tray or basin the width of the wall under the bags would catch any drips and keep the floor dry.
@@donkeydarko77 If it's constructed correctly, we hope it stays intact and healthy!
This was more like "taking with my friend who has already installed a plant wall".
Yes, it is, to offer an interesting possibility for people to look into.
What if we don't install drip irrigation system but add water manually ??
I think that you need to keep the thing dry enough to not grow mold on the wall and manual watering might be a bit too much moisture?
The irrigation system only waters very briefly twice a day. It keeps the soil moist, but not dripping. Watering manually would also be much more difficult given the height of the plants.
@@murg
That's true. Manual watering would easily produce wetter soil, although the wall behind the bags is waterproof drywall.
If we install it indoor if water drips to floor, what ll v do?
just put a pond at the bottom, or any basin because I noticed that problem too.
A long tray or basin the width of the wall under the bags would catch any drips and keep the floor dry.
That’s my dream wall 😍
Ours, too!
Is it safe? IM shared that organismo may be harmful get there
Is this in Canada? Where? would love to check it out in person
This is at Toronto Pearson’s Terminal 1.
'Green' is the word, is the word that we've heard, it's got mood, it's got meaning...
Yes, it does. Thank you.
could you add a plant list would be really helpfull :)
They won't.
That's business

No one said anything about the design of that timer. Cool project though.
The Wallygrow.com website that sells the pockets lists this timer wallygrow.com/products/galcon-9001bt-drip-timer?_pos=1&_sid=fad2094f0&_ss=r
what is the name of that bag? where can i purchase the bag and the timer? im from phils.
Hi, you can find the bag here: wallygro.com
Lol. No waterproof done at all.
Lol.....yep .....
If you want to do it right , start by building a proper shower alcove style wet area , complete with floor drain , that would be my advice. Especially on a new build like this one !
There is a rubberblayer as he mentioned
Beauty over practicals.
He used a waterproof drywall that is normally installed in bathrooms.
@@harryme472 A floor drain would be a very useful addition. Thank you.

Noted!
And what about all the moisture create against your wall? A disaster in the making.
It sounds as though it could be a disaster, but there are protections in place. The wall is a waterproof drywall that is commonly used in bathrooms, and the bags are lined to hold the water. Only small amounts of water are distributed automatically into the soil at a time, so the wall really never gets wet.
