Kate was wonderful. Loved her passion and expertise!

[@botanyboy5454]

Wonderful twist to the channels field trip content! 💙 👏 When Dickson Despommier's book came out, I had to read it.

[@teac117]

I'm impressed by how clean it is. My old plants in hydro shed so much old dander (leaves).

[@moradmoradi8518]

Thanks!

[@Yambataller]

Ahhhh that’s why I saw a short of a guy bringing back a salad in a restaurant with a praying mantis in it. I thought that must have been staged for content but now it makes sense. It was a huge praying mantis. Kind of surprising she made it to a restaurant table

Very interesting! Thank you Ms. Summer. 🌺💚🙃

[@abigailrohena5410]

Thank youuuuuuuuu! I’ve been waiting for a hydroponic tour forever 💚💚

[@zackrepko]

Queen Kate! Such an incredible farm & farmers

[@desiderialeonard8135]

This was a ton of fun to watch and so much to learn 😊

[@theminimalistninja]

This was son interesting! Thank you! :) Especially the part about the microgreens! I recently started growing some indoors but in soil and it was nice to see their set up!

[@davidnicholson6406]

Loved this it reminds me of my mother who would talk about a professor at Berkeley who coined the term hydroponics when she was there in the 30s.

[@timgarner1957]

Just amazing how entrepreneurs make great ideas come to life...and make it profitable! ..love the plant aspect of it as well... Thanks for another interesting episode..umm just seen something that made me sad...people stealing from botanical gardens !!!

[@Plantlifewithnina]

Very interesting!! Im impressed. 😊

[@LeGrowWorld]

Great content ❤

[@olucky11]

What kind of cap does she have on? I would like to buy one but need to know the name. Great video...thank you

[@kajakongo1918]

we like free range chickens, but maybe it's the same with plants it's painful to watch for some reason

[@socoperez8114]

Desde Europa agradecería subtitulos en español ❤

[@Yambataller]

Had no idea you could eat oxalis

[@howlinhauler]

I was expecting cannabis but this is cool. Cheers

[@aninhabitantofpaintedcliff3066]

Crazy they could make so much growing dope.. prolly do 😂

[@einarklevstad4615]

a lot of tons....

[@t0mt0mt0m]

All based off 90s cannabis tech but using modern leds. Rockwool is terrible for the environment and this facility will go down several times a year due to ipm issues, plant density and poly culture.

[@DanHubel]

Hi! I help to run this space. There are some misconceptions in your comment, hydroponics is an ancient technology far predating the 90s. We do owe a lot of advances to the THC industry though! We have been running for 4 years strong, this iteration of the farm has been growing non stop for 2.5 years, ipm, density and poly culture have not gotten in our way, in fact it is something we embrace and work with daily. Please feel free to reach out! (We don't love Rockwool either)

[@PrashantSharma-vf7vc]

Hydroponics..when U.S. has one of widest patch of land is available speaks of a very sorry state of affairs. A caged lion is nor same as one in wild. A botanical garden is not a forest. I would rather eat my herbs grown in soil full of microbes or probiotics and bathed in sun than one grown in liquid fertilizer concoction. Herbs are supposed to be left untouched by any industrial age chemicals as they are supposed to be medicinal. No wonder that we are seeing such an influx of newer and newer more deadly diseases.

[@PrashantSharma-vf7vc]

It's not that I love your content any less, but I hate hydroponics more.

[@darknessblip5820]

The environment is better controlled with hydroponics and groundwater is drying up. The climate is also getting too unpredictable. We go hydro or in the future people will starve. Educate yourself on hydroponics.

[@darknessblip5820]

Also for anyone who has actually grown and tested hydroponic produce… they grow faster and have higher nutritional content than plants from soil since you can adjust the nutrients received by the roots. Just better all around for the future with current top soil be depleted of minerals.

[@PrashantSharma-vf7vc]

@darknessblip5820 Data are often skewed and fudged based on necessities of industries, especially since no one will benefit from supporting a soil lobby. Saving our soil and regenerative agriculture is way forward. Industrial age men have always propagated this way of life, where we try to dominate nature rather than coexist. So many processed food comes packed with fortified vitamins, does that make them any healthier? A good soil is unbeatable. The money that's being channeled to build such industrial mechanics to grow our food if channeled into natural regenerative agriculture will result in far better produce under sunlight. I have tasted hydroponics, and it tastes sterile. Point is, have you ever tasted a lush mint under the sun, growing wild? I do have suspicion that this hydroponics stuff will bring more diseases to horizon. Plants need to be in soil under the sun in contact with mycorrhizal fungi, with insects. I don't want my food to be bathed in chemicals and fluorescent lights.

🌱🌱🪻🌸I fully understand now that setting this up is the most critical portion of this. 🐞🪲🐛Suppliers of the beneficial bugs would be another business in itself. To manage the care of nearly four hundred plants keeps the job interesting I’m sure.🌱🌸🌺🌹
