Those tomatoes are amazing!! Do any of the vines laying on other Beto buckets ever take root?
@HomegrownPassion7 сағат бұрын
They are just laying across the buckets so they are not touching the growing medium but I bet if they did, they would send out roots

Katie, thank you for this informative video; I took many notes. For completeness, what is the flow rate of your drip emitters? Thanks in advance.

@HomegrownPassion6 күн бұрын
So the channels run 24/7 with nutrient water. It’s computer monitored so it keeps ph and EC right where I want it. The NFT system is 3.5 inches wide 1.5 inches deep so the nutrient water flows over the roots constantly.

Which do you prefer growing strawberries on? The bags or the bato buckets? Also which is cheaper? Also are those bags reusable and do they recirculate or drain to waste?
@HomegrownPassion6 күн бұрын
I prefer growing in the bato buckets I get more pounds from the buckets then the bags however the bags produce huge berries. I don’t why but the are bigger but still not the same pounds. I keep the strawberries going for two years in both bags and buckets. Everything is drain to waste because I’m using a dosatron injection system. All these videos are on my channel and how I built the systems if you’re interested. Hope this helps.

We quit putting the lettuce in the cooler before markets. We leave the roots on them and put a little water in the totes too so that it's like they never left our system and they do not wilt in the heat.

Good morning, Kate Love your Videos. I have been watching you for years. Yesterday we were harvesting for our Farmers market and when we started pulling out the 5 star, we noticed that the roots have turned tan and were not the shiny white roots that we were accustomed to seeing in our channels. This has taking place in just a few days. we drained and scrubbed the nutrient tank and flushed fresh water thought the system. we added an air stone to get some oxygen in the system. Any help be greatly appreciated. we do wash and clean all the channels after use with Hydrogen Peroxide. Don
@HomegrownPassion8 күн бұрын
Hi Don, Glad you are watching the videos and supporting the channel... Thank you. No, I don't use hydrogen peroxide when I clean my channels. I use a light solution of bleach. There are so many reasons for brown roots. Was the water cold after you flushed out your nutrient tank? Are your other plants showing brown roots. Look close at roots do you see any very small worms. (fungus knat larvae) I use a product called Zerotol in my solution when I see anything weird. Most cases it will solve the problem. Its great stuff. biosafesystems.com/product/zerotol-2/
