I’ve been growing a lot of leafy greens in the hydroponic setups. And some folks were wondering what else could be grown. Specifically… could you grow cabbage in a hydroponic setup, using either the Kratky method or the floating rafts? The answer is, yes you can. But if you’re gonna do it in a tote or container, it needs to be about 10 gallons for each plant. Even though I had a less than ideal container, the cabbage still turned out great.
In the floating raft setup, the cabbage did a little bit better. I would definitely like to have a lot more hydroponic cabbage. Also, just for comparison, I’ll show you a cabbage that was growing in ground. It was amazing, an absolutely perfect plant.

Love your videos, filled with lots of useful info. Wanting to start a garden, but we dont have a rotatiller yet, and cant afford to do a raised bed, what would be some good tips to prep an area for our garden? Might have to break out good old fashion hand tools and just do it I guess.
Area is loaded with grass, hard soil…wanting to do the bucket system, but may have missed it this season.
You could have lied, you know, instead of showing everyone that the "kratky" method isn't all that great. Lol
