Someone posted they bought a house with a greenhouse and this came with it. Anyone know what this is called or where I can find one? This would be amazing for my strawberries. If I can’t find it, I’ll build it

An old self watering hanging wall garden they used to have a small water pump and a water tray.

I guess if I had low iron and didn’t mind all my strawberries tasting a bit weird. That bottom tray probably ends up with a ton of iron oxide in it every time it rains.

You can also use any round container and make it 360. Just put a spot in the top to water it

It’s just a particularly beefy and industrial style take on a vertical planter.
If you Google “vertical planter”, you’ll get tons of similar ideas.
Plastic barrels are popular. You can add holes in the side to grow out of, and have a larger plant in the top. Lots of people fill the center with buckets or large tubes to fill around without having to fill an entire barrel with soil.

Huh, I thought it was a pigeon roosting area and feeder. I guess we all see what we know already. my pigeon is your strawberry.

These are made with a punch and die set that shears half a circle and then punches the flap down into a clearanced pocket in the lower die to form the scoop. You can do it in a deep throat ironworker or with unit tooling in a pressbrake.
You can use a sheet of geotextile or coir up against the front of these before you fill them with media/soil, or fill it loose and shove a plug of peat moss into the holes so it doesn’t wash out the front when you water your plants in or expose your plant’s roots when you water them. The holes are spaced fine for hydroponics but are a bit close together for strawberries to really flourish in natural soil.

I have something similar from harvest today
