- Hi Johan that is a great idea with the Hydroponics man, really something for us to develop, I don't know much about it, but I will read up more. You can also add pictures, videos and stuff to the group, and invite some people so we can learn about this, this type of gardening and farming could be a real life-saver. Brilliant!
(BTW: to add a video, just copy the 'embed' code on the youtube video that you want to share and paste it in where you want it. here is an example of how to do it.)
