✍ Compared to conventional  Terrace garden or a Balcony garden,

The vertical garden is a compact unit optimized for soil, water, air and the growth space.

 As you have seen from multiple formats of the vertical gardens, there is no one way of doing it. Instead, the selection of vertical structure, positioning, use of kitchen compost, water automation and what you want to grow are the parameters to customize specific to the needs.

RO system release lots of water during Filtration process, this Rejected water can be supplied to Terrace Garden.

Given the fact that the urban dwellers are mostly the nucleus families of 3 or 4 people in size, the single unit of vertical garden could be accommodating 25 to 5o plants.

 The daily routines of the working couple, weekend schedules and occasional trips decide the maintenance factors. Sometime,

you need to consider other issues like proximity to the walls, total estimated weight of the unit, firm bases in case earthquake and protection from any external abuses.

 Dampening by moisture, rusting, odd smells, and fungus generation have to be taken care as well.

There is always a debate whether to buy from the market or build it yourself.
As @Ranju Minhas ji 

Waste vegetable to organic Compost for Home Gardening

is

practicing the re-generative lifestyle, it is appreciated if you make use of available stuff at home instead of buying it.

The use of micro-plastics  or single use plastics have to be completely avoided.

  

By the way, NITI Ayog is also encouraging circular economy in a big way.

As I have mentioned earlier, it is a project for the family.

Each member has to contribute in his/her own way and talk to the plants everyday.

Especially, the children learn many things, develop emotions, acquire life skills as they grow something good for themselves. So, the operational aspects have to me such that every can one access it easily and attend to the plant needs. The dependency on hired labours has to be minimal.
