Thanks for the info Khang. Have been watching your videos for a while and always enjoy them. For tomatoes i picked up the container collection from Tomatofest. I have not tried them all but the Tiny Tim cherry tomato plants are excellent. They only grow about 1 to 1.5 feet high and have a high yield. I planted 2 of them with some Thai basil and they all produced for 10 months before i finally decided to change them out.

Hello Khang! Awesome video, as always! I just found your channel recently as I got interested in Hydroponics. I am a pepper guy, I currently have 5 varieties that are germinating/sprouts. I never really looked into hydroponics until a friend of mine told me that it works amazingly well for year round growing. I live in Alabama so it both gets 95f and 20f, neither of which do my peppers like. Do you think a full DIY DWC setup would be a better choice over an AeroGarden if I am willing to put in the time and bit of extra money? A few of my friends have AeroGardens and they are amazing, but they are a bit limiting. I will be growing primarily super hot peppers. Currently I am growing Death Spirals and Chocolates Ghosts/7 pots. Thank you for the videos!!!

Curious, do you top your tanks off with Fresh Water between adding Nutrients? For instance, on mine, it wants more water every couple of days, and asks for new Fertilizer ever couple of weeks. Do you give it plain water every couple of days or the nutrient rick water?

I started being active on 7 Pot Club & Rob has mentioned you as a knowledgeable source. I just received my PH100 meter and am awaiting shipment of 2) Bounty Basic aerogardens. I think the information of water change every 4 weeks is correct for good plant health. What are your views? For water, I was planning on using grocery store Spring water as it is very consistent in mineral content and highly filtered. Your views again? People should not consume RO or distilled water so why should plants. Use their mineral blend.

I bought white Thai seeds from a trusted seller on Amazon. They happen to also sell the candlelight mutant pepper seeds of which I didn't purchase. They said there's no chance they crossed however I have several white Thai plants that are clearly mutated. Do you know if this is something that happens from time to time? They aren't long leaves like the candlelight but they are somewhat elongated and some leaves look like normal pepper leaves but appear to have Siamese characteristics. It's very odd but fascinating. I posted to pepper groups on Facebook with no real answers and searched Google high and low. Hoping you may have some insight? I want these to grow well and carry the genetics onto the next round.

Very informative video like always, Khang. I know you grow for fun, but you should consider setting up Amazon affiliated links to the things you mention so you can at least make a little bit of money off things people buy. It doesn't cost your viewers anything, but it'll put a little change in your pocket for all your efforts. :) You should also try to get some of the companies to sponsor the stuff you use often. I'm not sure how that's done, but I think tagging them on Instagram helps.
