Hydroponic Greenhouse: From Hobby to Business

[@RobsHydro]

That was so much fun to make. Robs Hydro....

[@RobsAquaponics]

Thanks for the tour Rob & Mitch. Looking forward to see how the comparison goes. BTW, nothing wrong with light 🍺. Cheers Chaps 🍻🍻🍻

[@Scrambles7]

Hell yeah. BIG DOG is showing us all how to be living the dream. Look at this place. Love it

[@Hoocho]

Scrambles. Much love. 🐕

[@That_Chemist]

This is legitimately the best grow setup I have seen

[@Xiao_PP]

Yes thank you for listening to our requests for an update! Just building my own smaller greenhouse today

[@downunderfulla6001]

I love Robs expansions and new seedling setup. Just hearing his turnaround for the leafy greens is amazing🍺🍺

[@Hoocho]

Dude. I don’t say this enough, but thanks for your support all these years. Much love.

[@Xiao_PP]

Hugely thankful for letting us into your operation, Appreciate the detail im only doing small scale home stuff but it helps alot. Top notch blokes cheers

[@stephenmarch3736]

I really appreciate the knowledge and the energy showing from the scalability from simple residential systems to large scale commercial production. This is very insightful. Thanks a bunch guys for taking the time to put this together.

[@kerryevans2038]

Great to see his progress and how healthy everything looks

[@Swissindoorgarden]

Great video! Love seeing these small farm hydro instillations.

[@Kelsdoggy]

Looking forward to the end result. Love the wicking gutter system of these

[@bobsieschannel]

Rob has an awesome setup there always love his updates on Facebook, bit of a shame you didn't bring any beer mate , Rob looked thirsty .

[@d3w4yn3]

GLORIOUS!!!

[@Holodomor4.0]

Hooch bucket such a revolutionary hydroponic product

[@BTarpley805]

Perfect timing for this video!! Over here across the pond in California, but we're supposed to have a wet winter coming up. Looking to build a hydro greenhouse just like this, and experiment with extended photo period produce with some additional lighting as well. Going to be trying to start a homesteading/day in the life video series about the progress.

[@mattstone8878]

HOOCHO IS TOO LEGIT TO QUIT!

[@karimhayes3134]

love it keep it up . did i miss the water replacement schedule . ie water dumps .

[@singjai82]

Thank you for the update. Rob’s greenhouse looks absolutely amazing. I am wondering if you share how you deal with aphids? I am having endless problems with aphids even though I am growing indoor but your corps look perfect so I am really interested how you deal with pests?

[@RobsHydro]

Aphids haven't been an issue for me, I did see a few on Kale a while back, I introduced lady beetles as a trial and meant to keep doing it just haven't had the need, I don't spray any chemical pesticides all I do spray is Dipel and copper, both a half recommended strengths once a week.

[@CubeRhinoDev]

would love a list of all the seeds used in his farm! mouth was watering when you were doing the lettuce tour but i dont recognize most of those. maybe some affiliate links on the seed sales? thanks for your content!

[@antoniosanford4675]

Great video, beautiful greenhouses, I just don't understand why you and Rob aren't specking out into vertical greenhouse designs.

[@Hoocho]

Soon. 😊

[@Pneumaticcannon]

Awesome !!!

[@wayne8113]

Thanks Hoocho, Top job 👍

[@disco_bard]

That second greenhouse, he's been busy!

[@RobsHydro]

Construction of greenhouse #5 ( the last one) starts soon, and using a self watering hoocho designed hydro systems is the plan.

[@AMurderOfTurtles]

ayy my bets are that the Hooch multi-bucket wins :) thanks for considering backwards compatibility when making new versions!

[@johnmcginnis5201]

I have switched to using a low temp slow set hot glue for assembling RGGS systems. Silly Cone was just not doing it for me.

[@EviLEwoK666]

Hope you kept him from snacking on your tomatoes this time Rob! j/k Hooch ;) Great update guys! Edit: He got into the cucumbers instead! LOL

[@Ifyouarehurtnointentwasapplied]

Very cool ✌️👏👏

[@billbobaggins7617]

So, do you do subscription service or what? How do you distribute all that produce efficiently

[@That_Chemist]

8:26 it is probably good to clarify for ppl that he means '50% of 3% peroxide' not '50% peroxide', i.e. dilute store bought peroxide by 50% (to 1.5%)

[@Hoocho]

He was talking about adding 10mL 50% H2O2 to the 100L res. No clarification needed.

[@arrow1island]

with your greenhouses, I see the roof is plastic and the walls are shade cloth. As you are in QLD do you find it gets too hot for lettuces and other leafy greens. Where do you buy such cost effective plastic that covers such a large area

[@Yelonek1986]

Geez, after seeing some Mr Inbetween shorts, now I associate australian accent with criminals. What is YT doing to my brain? Your small talk in the beginning instantly reminded me of Ray. 😅

[@lockepersonal]

Having enough land to build a greenhouse is a dream of mine.

[@narg87]

Hoocho like a kid in a candy shop 😆

[@missingpunctuation]

How do you harvest the lettuce?

[@Tropical-Hope-Hydropponics]

95% of Rob's lettuce is Cut Leaf Lettuce, perhaps a video on this and packaging? thank you so much

[@2WithOnion]

Can anyone help with my tap water dilemma? The ec is .6 out of the tap and I'm unsure how I'm suppose to utilise my Campbell's diamond white nutrient when the ec is already soo high. Is this a gift or burden? Does this mean I only need to utilise a fraction of Diamond white and still get the same desired results? Any clarification would be hugely appreciated Hooch heads

[@muqeetmustafa9972]

Hi. Can you try Electroculture? Thanks

[@irock4312]

Question. my Standard water EC is sitting at like 2. so wheni ad my nuterial it goes up to like 5+ EC any ideas on how to deal with this beside jusing distilled water (expenive)

[@steveprager5982]

Same problem. I ended up installing a 1500 rainwater tank. Then a second one (it doesn’t rain much in Perth!). When that ran out I filled the tanks with a RO filter. I bought HydroLogic stealth (not available locally 😢) as the cheap local ones just trickled and were useless.

[@Aussie-des420]

[@N1ghtR1der666]

Another great video, I am a bit concerned with potential algea growth in your 500l fabric tank due to the amount of light getting through the wall, got any solutions for this? potential purchaser here.

[@Hoocho]

@@N1ghtR1der666 the amount of light blocked is enough that it’s not a problem. I’ve had a tank set up for 6 months now.

[@N1ghtR1der666]

@@Hoocho thanks, good to know

[@blunderchips]

What is oasis? Like a oz brand of seed starting mix?

[@steveprager5982]

They’re like an organic foam block. I swear by them but for some sad reason they’re almost unavailable in Australia at the moment.

[@acelmikkas]

I would like to see more updates in the facebook group but at the time i'm still locked out from the group since so much weeks. And i don't know why or i could be a group member again. When is click on the link it says it's unavailable.

[@Hoocho]

@@acelmikkas the group is moderated. Any breach of rules is dealt with a ban. The moderators have been allowed to make that decision with impunity due to the quantity of spam and misbehaviour.

[@acelmikkas]

​@@Hoocho Don't get me wrong, I didn't write to beg back, I just don't know/understand what it was that got me banned. It was so sudden. But of course, if I did something that I shouldn't or am not allowed to do, no problem, obviously the same rules apply to everyone.

[@acelmikkas]

That is why I would like to thank you for your work, I have learned a lot from it. I will continue to watch your videos because everything I see is great.

[@ObiWanCannabi]

iv done similar here lol still only producing 4 plants a week..

[@blackswansystem]

Excellent 🎉

[@Hoocho]

Thanks BSS

[@Brianshydroheaven]

Awesome!
