Cheers Larry – My tomatoes did great in DWC too – going to do that again
this year. My California wonder peppers did OK in the NFT rail, but I’m
going to try doing them in dutch buckets this year instead I think (mostly
because I want to try out dutch buckets to see if I like ’em). That’s an
impressive ball of roots on that tomato – I guess that’s what happens when
the nutes run out… more and more roots put out trying to search for
nutes. Cheers!!?
More great stuff. You were really busy. Awesome Poblano Plant.?
Did you have any trouble with fungus gnats deciding that moist coco-coir is
the perfect breeding ground? I tried doing hand watered coco-coir buckets
last summer after watching you doing it, but had no end of trouble with
fungus gnats. I couldn’t get lettuce to start growing worth a darn cuz
those blasted fungus gnat larvae would eat my lettuce seedlings before they
could ever get big enough to produce.
Now I’m filling my net pots with mostly lava rock, a thin layer of
coco-coir, and finally a top layer of sand. The sand seems to be far less
attractive to the fungus gnats than coco coir. I still use a small layer of
coco-coir to keep sand from pouring out the bottom of the net pot. ?
Some pics of my greenhouse from this fall & winter?
How hot did you DWC water temps get? I had issues as temps raised above
75F mid summer.?
Very nice, Larry! Keep up the good work!?
Glad you’ve got some extra time to do videos again :)?
Wow that is one amazing greenhouse,you did amazing on your DWC.
