We just had a problem in our hydroponic lettuce. Plants are dying and right above the oasis cubes. It’s turning to mush. The variety is Muir. Never had this problem before so that you were using Hydro peroxide and Clorox in your deep water culture we are using NFT trays with about 180 gallon solution tank. What do you think my amount of chemical to put in there would be?

To be honest, I don’t know what to recommend. I would start very light with maybe 50 mL of hydrogen peroxide and 10 mL of bleach and work your way up from there, if you’re not comfortable with that start even smaller. I’m quite nervous recommending anything cause I don’t really know with NFT.

Question if you don’t mind: Could you just plant them in the end trays or is there a reason besides real estate not to?
@GreenEase
@GreenEase 3 күн бұрын
There isn’t any reason besides space. Square footage in a greenhouse is extremely expensive, especially when you start running light over it. It is incredibly efficient to do this. In a greenhouse, it often pencils out to trade labor for square footage.

@GreenEase
@GreenEase 3 күн бұрын
A few people are, but I usually say no. The reason is two fold. Tiny seeds can get stuck in between the acrylic place and you have to clean them out. Also static can build up on the acrylic place and prevent small seeds from rolling around properly.

@knnaveen007 it might be kind of hard to explain, but before when we transplanted the medium size plants, we would pull the roots through the holes in the raft with little wires. We switch to a vacuum table and making sure that everybody only touches the plants once. It easily gave us one day boost in growth.

Elemental Sulfur when vaporized will not allow the spores to grow roots in the leaves. 2-3 hours per night until infection is gone should be enough. If the infection is severe, hit them with 6-8 hours the first few nights then back off to the 2-3 hours.

The manifold system is brilliant. I ended up building one big pool because I couldn't figure out how to tie multiple pools together. Air lines- I built basically your manifold, but I used soaker hoses. I ran them all the way down the length of the bed, one line under each row of rafts. Do you just have air in the corner? I may have to copy your water return design. Mine all comes in at one end and flows to the other end where the intake is.
@GreenEase

Yes, we just run air in one corner. It’s right where the suction is so the aerated water goes straight into the suction and out through the circulation system.
