I've just built a raspberry pi powered hydroponic basil farm for the kitchen widow sill.
Its made from a couple of tin cans and a cheap pump to circulate the water. The raspberry Pi is basically an expensive timer, but it also logs the pump activity to a webpage, and in the future may also keep an eye on the water levels and temp.
If this works, I'll be growing tomatoes and peppers next year
