Hydroponic Garden Tour | New Tomatoes! | Cucumber Trouble | Sept. "24

[@bajablast989]

Looking good lots of progress! I've been looking for a dwarf micro tomato variety that consistently gives good yield. I have some plants that just don't produce much, others do great. I keep falling back to microgreens because of how easy they are.

[@beyourbestgardener8767]

Makes sense! Ya I haven't grown microgreens. As far as dwarf cherry tomatoes, I have that down! Red Robins are by far the best. I'm just trying to find a good mini slicer. So far I really liked the Thorburn Terracotta. I need to try it again to test flavor again. It was okay but it was slow to start because I had issues during it's initial growth.

Ohhh no. Sorry to hear you are having problems with your nutrients. I had major issues with the dry nutrients. The sediment was terrible as well as they clogged my tubes. So I just did a deep clean and switched to the liquid general hydroponics. So i hope they grow ok! Also my mascotte bean plants grow so tall into the lights how do you keep it trimmed without killing it so they do not grow into the lights? Thanks again appreciate all your videos!!

@@dawnsample5689 Hey! Ya I agree the sedimentation is worse but I was just not doing the liquid correctly. I just would run out of time or rush and it just wasn't working for me 😕 Mascotte beans shouldn't need to be trimmed if they're Mascotte bush beans. If they're growing past 12-14 inches, maybe too much nitrogen? I never trim mine. Glad the videos are helpful 😊

Maybe your not using enough nutrients... You also need the bloom that goes with this nutrient for fruiting plants

[@beyourbestgardener8767]

@@stacijones6706 definitely using enough 😊 I check my EC regularly. It's more likely that I just wasn't mixing them correctly. I also do use the bloom for my flowering plants because I have two separate gardens.
