I’m Kris Eichstaedt—writer, wellness advocate, and
hydroponic grower since 2017. After years of managing chronic pain, I found
healing through CBD and medical cannabis… and soon after, a passion for growing
my own food and medicine at home.
Today, I grow everything from lettuce and basil to strawberries and CBD—all
indoors, all year round. I created Basement Hydroponics to help you do the
same.
