"I can't exactly recall when the idea came to me but at some point I started wanting to use the heat from a computer as a way to warm the soil and help with germination," Mike said.
He opted for wheatgrass because it's natural and looks clean but finding a computer for this project was No.1 on the list. He had many donated computers in his room and so he cobbled them together with various components to assemble this bio computer.
The growing grass brings a bit of nature into a sterile and artificial workplace. Mike also has plans to experiment with flowers someday.
"For the computer itself I ended up installing Windows as well as Linux in a dual boot setup. Since the computer was going to be used by my son as something to play with I figured I should put both on there so he can tinker with them and learn as he goes." Mike proudly said.
Below are the specifications of the system.
