Aquaponics - Retired strawberry towers

I finally gave up and decided the risk of running my poorly constructed strawberry towers, was greater then the strawberry return.

I pulled everything out and found homes for it, either in the compost heap, as many of the plants had died due to being dry so often in their lives, or in the case of things that were still ticking along in spite of my treatment, into the lettuce holes on the other side.

I'm not sure if I'll try to fix the towers, or retire them to the rafters of my shed as spider homes.
