a turning mechanism configured to rotate the rotatable tower suspension shaft and the vertical column of interconnected growing pots about a vertical axis of the vertical column of interconnected growing pots to achieve uniformity of illumination;

a supply conduit in constant fluid communication with a top of the vertical column of interconnected growing pots;

a return conduit in fluid communication with a bottom of the vertical column of interconnected growing pots; and

a reservoir in fluid communication with the supply conduit and the return conduit.

2. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a nutrient enriched fluid to circulate through the system.

3. The system of claim 2 , the turning mechanism comprising a horizontal driveshaft in communication with a motor to rotate the vertical column of interconnected growing pots.

4. The system of claim 3 , further comprising a spacing bar disposed between adjacent vertical columns of interconnected growing pots.

5. The system of claim 4 , further comprising an elongated support channel covering the turning mechanism.

6. The system of claim 5 , further comprising a distributor head secured to a top portion of the vertical column of interconnected growing pots.

7. The system of claim 6 , further comprising a regulator to adjust a temperature of the fluid circulating through the system.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the system re-circulates the fluid.

9. The system of claim 8 , further comprising a dosing system to add nutrients to water for replenishment of the fluid.

10. The system of claim 9 , further comprising a fluid level sensor in the reservoir configured to automatically activate the dosing system for replenishment of the fluid when the fluid reaches a predetermined level in the reservoir.

11. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a light tower, wherein the light tower is orientated vertically to emit light from a top of the vertical column of interconnected growing pots to the bottom.

12. The system of claim 11 , the light tower further comprising light emitting diodes (LED) grow lights.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the light tower is configured to vary intensity, times, durations and wavelength of emissions to optimize plant growth.

14. An aeroponic growing system, the system comprising,

a plurality of vertical growing towers, where the vertical growing towers are arranged in adjacent rows and columns;

a plurality of rotatable tower suspension shafts configured to suspend and rotate each of the vertical growing towers;

a turning mechanism configured to rotate each rotatable tower suspension shaft and respective vertical growing tower about a vertical axis of the respective vertical growing tower;

a supply conduit in constant fluid communication with a top portion of each of the vertical growing towers;

a return conduit in fluid communication with a bottom portion of each of the vertical growing towers; and

a reservoir in fluid communication with the supply conduit and the return conduit and configured to re-circulate a nutrient rich fluid through the vertical growing towers.

15. An aeroponic growing method, the method comprising:

forming a growing tower from a plurality of interconnected growing pots;

suspending the growing tower from a rotatable tower suspension shaft;

rotating the rotatable tower suspension shaft and the growing tower about a vertical axis of the growing tower;

supplying a nutrient rich fluid to a top portion of the growing tower;

collecting the fluid from a bottom portion of the growing tower after the fluid has traveled down the growing tower; and

recirculating the fluid to the top portion of the growing tower.

16. The method of claim 15 , further comprising illuminating the growing tower from a top of the growing tower to the bottom to promote plant growth.

17. The method of claim 16 , further comprising inserting plants into ports disposed on a periphery of the growing tower.

18. The method of claim 17 , further comprising arranging a plurality of growing towers in adjacent rows that are rotated contemporaneously.
