At Victory Garden Hydroponics, we know that no two growers are the same. Some want to fill their kitchen with fresh herbs year-round, while others dream of harvesting baskets of peppers and tomatoes straight from a backyard greenhouse. That’s why we designed our modular towers with flexibility in mind—so you can choose the setup that best matches your goals.
What to Consider When Choosing a Tower
1. Your Space
Small Spaces (apartments, patios, kitchens): A compact tower with fewer sites is often best. It’s easy to maintain and won’t overwhelm the area.
Larger Spaces (greenhouses, outdoor gardens, garages): Bigger towers let you maximize production per square foot and keep a wider variety of crops growing at once.
2. What You Want to Grow
Leafy Greens & Herbs: Basil, lettuce, spinach, and cilantro thrive in smaller systems.
Fruit-Bearing Crops: Micro or dwarf tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers need more room, making larger towers with spacer modules a better fit.
3. Your Harvest Goals
Fresh for the Family: A smaller tower will easily provide a steady supply of greens and herbs for daily meals.
Feeding Friends, Neighbors, or Market Customers: Larger towers allow you to scale up production for continuous harvests and higher yields.
Why Choosing the Right Company Matters
When you’re investing in a hydroponic tower, you’re not just buying equipment—you’re choosing a partner in your growing journey. Here’s why our growers trust Victory Garden Hydroponics:
Proven Designs: Our towers are tested and used on our own farm before we ever offer them to customers.
Small Business Service: You get direct support from real growers who understand your challenges, not a call center.
U.S.-Made Quality: Every tower is proudly designed and built here in the United States.
Dedicated Support: Whether you’re troubleshooting your first crop or expanding your setup, we’re here to help you succeed.
Our Tower Models
At Victory Garden Hydroponics, we offer two primary tower designs:
VG3-15 – Built with larger-plant modules, perfect for crops like micro or dwarf tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and other larger fruiting plants.
VG4-24 – Designed for smaller-footprint crops like lettuce, spinach, and herbs, giving you more planting sites in the same footprint.
Both towers include everything you need to get started—planting pods, tower cap, pump, reservoir, and timer. And if you want to expand later, you can add more modules to customize your setup.

Still Not Sure Which Tower to Pick?
Think about your goals:
If you want to grow salads, greens, and herbs year-round → VG4-24 is your best bet.
If you’re after peppers, strawberries, micro or dwarf tomatoes, and other larger footprint crops → VG3-15 is the way to go.
And remember, you’re never locked in. Our towers are modular, which means you can start small and expand as your growing journey evolves!
