Hey, thanks for watching and the comment. I could put a video about nutrients in the mix, appreciate the suggestion. Right now in short, Tower gardens nutrients (which I use) are a proprietary blend, when i'm sure is basic, except for a custom agent used to help the roots uptake iron. I do not adjust for any other types of crops, atleast ones i'm growing right now. Let me see if I can get a video explaining more in depth! Nutrients can be annoying; but a well rounded blend is great to start, and adjust from there depending on what you're growing.

Do you know if there is any way to get enough lights to the bottom of the towers to not have to do anything like that? I am planning on creating an indoor garden using those 55 gallon drum garden towers that you fill with soil, so I wouldnt be able to move the plants around like that. I am considering using 880 watt mammoth mint grow lights for this, the 8 bar with the 7x7 foot print, I could fit four barrels under each light. The barrels ARE less tall than your towers though. Do you think there is any realistic way I can use over head lights for a project like this? I am looking at the side lighting options and I would just need way too many. I was thinking of buying a couple anyways in case I ever need them to support specific areas? I have been looking into this for weeks but my idea seems so specific that I cant find reliable info on it really, this video is the closest I got so far, and it has already been very helpful.

The overhead lights will always make things on top grow faster and more vigorously then on the bottom.

@@urbanagmike oh I’d like to hear more about the plastic you use. There’s some specificity to the leaching of PFAS based ofc on material but also use cases; heat and contact to liquids are both factors to consider, which is why I don’t heat my food up in plastics. If my memory serves me correctly BPA (Bisphenol A) is the most common food packaging plastic used and that does contain some form synthetic estrogen… somehow!? It’s unlucky honestly, imagine if it was test and all of us would inadvertently be chads now. Would still throw off our endocrinological balance like it does now but in the opposite direction. That and microplastics do have multiple adverse effects so I’m not rooting for manly microplastics lol. But it’s about time to do smth about it beceause the famous Rogan clip about gay frogs is turning out to be a real issue here.

Hey Francois! By utilizing dehumidifiers, no humidity is not a problem. Funny actually, the humidity is naturally worse in other rooms like the kitchen or laundry room which have no plants, also the basement we had to put in a dehumidifier. This isn't abnormal at all. Secondly, are you sure about that? Hot air moves towards cold air, therefore all you should have to do if it's colder outside then in - is open a window! Air should move there naturally.
