Yes, I agree. I'm not a DIY person and I have friends who have been growing on these over 13 years so they last forever so I just made the investment....but I do agree there are many options! It's so important we grow some of our own food however you have to make it work! Blessings.

Hi again! When do you add water to tub and add more nutrients? I don't use Tower Garden nutrients, anymore, I use General Hydroponics 3 part system. Super easy and better nutients.
@theaeroponictowerchannel
@theaeroponictowerchannel Күн бұрын
I will have to check those nutrients out! I let my tanks run almost dry. I'm not sure if that is best practice but I grow so many things on my towers they usually run out in 5-10 days in the peak fruiting season. Even my towers inside that only need water ever 5 weeks or so I still let them run almost dry. I just haven't noticed any benefit to being more precise.

Hello there! I LOVE your channel! I use Organic Pink Salt and Redmonds too! I do have a question.. How long are you leaving the jars on the counter before eating??? You said 5 days? My Cabbage, aka, Sauerkraut, is a year old this July 15th. She is in the fridge. I have 1 cup left to eat, and oh my goodness, it taste better the last 3 months till today! Absolutely divine as she ages, But I need to start eating more. What about beets? Mine are in fridge, 1 year July 15th, I eat once a week, still crunchy. You say half way through, you add more veggies, would that make the tenderness inconsistent? Or does it matter? Are you mixing the new veggies in with the older? Lastly, I am supposed to be watching my soduim intake, this is different than eating a bag of chips, correct? Ive never had an issue with ferments, but I am curious to know the difference. Thank you so very much! You are wonderful!!!

Hi! 5 days is the earliest you want to eat them. I go through my ferments a lot faster than a year, but it is totally up to you as far as how much you eat and the age you like them. They are still fermenting in the fridge but at a much slower rate. When I top them off it does give me food with different tenderness. I like that though since some will be tender and some super fresh and crunchy. You will be able to visually tell what is older so I often scoop those out to use when possible. Beets I do the same but they do usually end up in the fridge after 2 weeks because they are more susceptable to issues. As for the sodium......my guess is it is due to high blood pressure? My thoughts from what I have learned over the years is that isn't a real salt issue. That can be cleaned up with a plant heavy, zero processed foods diet.

@@theaeroponictowerchannel Hello there! No..Not HBP, Supra Ventricular Tachcardiya.. Rapid Heart Rate. Which is a misfiring of the electrical current. If I eat too much salt, I have an episode. I eat extremely clean, but a few times, I ate salty chips even though they were organic and fabulous, I ate too many. Also stress can set it off and alcohol as well, but I stopped that a few years ago. Also, I do not peel my carrots, I used locally grown, so many vitamins in the skin. Thank you!!

I’ve always avoided fermentation after a poor attempt with cucumbers but will give it another go. So after 5 days, the product is good to start eating? What would you say is a nice amount of time to get a nice flavor for the foods you’ve demonstrated?

5 days is a good start to try and then see as they age a little more what you prefer. I use them from day 5 until they are gone which can be a few weeks depending on our schedule. All food get softer with age.

Thank you for your content. I have a suggestion and sort of request , to make a playlist that how you grow seeds to harvest that vegetables or fruit in aeroponic tower. This playlist would be so much helpful for beginners. In that playlist tell everything you do with that seed and why. Like some spraying or how much light needed , every small thing and like how much pH level the solution needed , which nutrients you put in that solution. Like everything till harvesting. I am requesting you for beginners like me. Atlast thanks a lot for your content.

Do you get high winds where you are? If so, how do the plants in your tower garden handle high winds? I am building a tower right now that I'm planning on putting on my dock in the Western NC Mountains, but it''s been so blustery these last few days, I'm having second thoughts.

We get really high winds here and I have never had an issue. The Tower Garden version is super stable. You can also clamp the top to the base and it's full of 20 gallons of water so it's not going over. I haven't ever had to do that though.

Does the boom box tower tent need lighting? Can the lighting be put on a timer? Can one add plant trays with seedlings to supply oxygen to the mushrooms and the mushrooms in tern supply CO2 to the plants under the tower tent?
@theaeroponictowerchannel
@theaeroponictowerchannel 6 күн бұрын
Mushrooms don't need light like plants. The light helps change the shape and color so indirect like is good but you don't need a special light system. As far as plants, I think it would be too wet for plants in the tent unless you did rainforest plants and then there could be issues with bacteria and things that mushrooms don't like....I'm not sure though, it could be a great experiment. The boom room is pumping in oxygen and water and the fan is pulling out the CO2

They last a lifetime. I have a friend growing on the same towers for over 13 years in the hot Florida sun. The cost to grow food on the towers is WAY more affordable than when I was soil gardening. The inputs are very small. I have a free ebook where I explain growing costs here. There is an initial cost but the Return on Investment is so good in the long run compared to my old soil gardens where I was adding amedments, compost, new garden beds and so much water every season. These use 90% less water too. stan.store/Theaeroponictowerchannel/p/food-freedom-awaits

@@theaeroponictowerchannel Thank you very very much. very honestly and critically speaking : when you were doing your best with soil compared when you doing your best on soilless growing, which crops and fruits do you think was better tasting? Taste is the most important to me, not crops, not labor... I'm not old (31 years old) but even 10 years ago when i was eating any fruits they would taste better. Even fertilizers that make the plant grow faster and bigger with more crops and less crop lost due to pests... We grow rice here, in a very old fashioned way. If you are interested in old woman working on a field, let me know to film them when their working on my lands. I really would be very happy to share these things. But so much labor oh my god.
