I've been doing a thing that kinda sorta counts.

I built raised planters and used pond liner to keep the water from leaving, except via evaporation or metabolization. There are sumps involved so I can monitor the water levels and reuse/drain what collects. What collects is basically compost tea, so the plants do well with it getting recirculated. It's been working pretty well in that my tomato plants beat the crap out of everyone else's. Over winter I hope to build a hothouse over the whole thing which should extend the growing season by a month or so in each direction.
