You are very encouraging. I will immediately try to follow your instructions that were so clearly made. May God bless you to achieve your dream through this project. Hope to learn more from you. Thank you for sharing your time, your project, your experience and your intellect.

[@CaseysJonesMom]

Hi Hannah... great, Thank you for the information and demonstration. Can you tell me if i harvest the lettuce (maybe not a whole head at a time though) will it regrow from that plant once or twice more like I've seen on other videos? Or do I just start over? And also, since the is a hydroponic method, can I grow them indoors provided I give them enough sunlight? I live in AZ and the sun is just too hot, plus I want to grow them outside of the normal growing season. Thank you!

[@FOATE]

If you're harvesting a few leaves at a time you can leave it and it will regrow. For heads it's better to start over because roots will die off because there's not enough leaf mass to support. The dying roots can then start to rot and cause problems that way.

[@mst6734]

@@FOATE so that big bucket she used might not be ideal if you harvest the whole plant then? something smaller would probably work too

[@trackie1957]

Such a simple, clear presentation! BTW, If you go to the bakery department at the supermarket, they usually have some food grade buckets they’ll let you have for free.

[@saeed6811]

Use hydrated lime to bump up your pH and phosphoric acid to lower it. Don’t use vinegar.

[@ericavery3054]

why?

[@droidomz]

if the water in the bucket goes above 68 degrees you will get root rot, also no oxygen in the bucket doesn't sound like a great idea. I would grow it indoors for hot weather areas and add an airstone to oxygen the roots

[@coreyrees840]

If you don’t remove the plant entirely from the net pots and just cut at the base, could you then in theory leave the remaining bit the bucket and regrow new lettuce from those existing roots? Similar to the whole “veggies from the the supermarket left in a glass thing” like lettuce and green onions etc you see trending?

[@enzorocha2977]

Plastic, plastic everywhere. I do hope these are recycled or repurposed items and not new purchases. It would be nice to make suggestions in your videos regarding plastic use and the importance of minimizing them. We should discourage as much as we can new purchases of plastic products. Stop supporting the industry for the sake of our one and only planet.

[@sleddy01]

I'm sure people can figure that out for themselves. Government extensions need to appeal to the masses and the masses have plastic buckets.

The water in the buckets lasts how long? I have a bird bath I have to clean everyday because of fungus. How long before you have to refill the buckets with fresh water to keep healthy plants is my question?

[@zacharygarza1847]

That is because your bird water is in contact with the sun; which promotes the growth of algae. She didn’t mention it but her water isn’t in contact with any sun, this is very important in order for this process to work.

Gainesville hydroponics grower here, glad to see IFAS doing some hydroponics videos!

[@pieteri.duplessis]

Very well done. Do you let the root system grow again or are disposing of it?

[@brianmi40]

It will regrow, but after some number of cuttings will be less tasty and suggesting you start over, in fact, you can regrow just about any store bought vegetable in the Fresh Produce section: Green onions (keep bottom 2", place in water a couple days to root, then transplant to soil) Yellow onions (cut the root part with about 1/2" or so of "root" and set either directly in wet soil, or in water for a couple days, then soil) Carrots (keep about 1/2" with the top, and plant with top barely showing in soil) Lettuce (trim for use and leave 1" near the stalk, set in water a couple days for rooting, then transplant to soil) etc. etc. Rockwool squares (Amazon) will let you start about any seed (tomato, pepper) directly from the fruit/vegetable, and for many/most plants and store herbs you can buy as fresh as possible, select the greenest stalks, trim at 45 degrees, and they will root in water in a Rockwool. Same thing when you grow your plant: cut a stalk or two to regrow it. Pretty much if people were smart, in one trip to the store for just the healthy food that you eat, you could start your own garden...

Great video Hannah! Can you tell me why using that specific amount of water when the roots at full maturity does not come close to using it all up? Can I use less in a more shallow container? Appreciate your feedback :).

[@justinomar9210]

Cause it's a set and forget method your way would require you to change the size of the container as it gets bigger you also would have mix a fresh batch of nutrients it's more work basically

[@oguzoguz4686]

DONT FORGET THE HYDROPOTONS!!!!! If there will be sun there will be alleges

[@aquabarrel]

The 3-1-2 ratio of N-P-K in Foliage Pro 9-3-6 results in greater mineral uptake by foliage plants thereby reducing harmful salt build-up and eliminating deficiencies. Foliage-Pro outperforms all other fertilizers in low light environments and Interiorscapers across the country use Foliage-Pro to maintain healthy, controlled growth on foliage plants and trees.

[@MrRgates23]

This is called the Kratky Method. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kratky_method. Invented by Bernard A. Kratky at the University of Hawaii. University of Florida should not be taking the credit for it.

[@Fl0W4RHI3R]

You are very cute and you remind me of Victoria from How i met your mother :) Thanks for your tipps, i am planting Lettuce, Tomatos, Cucumbers and Watermelons in Hydroponics :)

[@WorldEngineersOnline]

Great Video, will follow your plan. However, I read concerns with Mosquito Breeding inside buckets, how to stop this, otherwise this method is easiest.

[@Merzui-kg8ds]

So this isn't Kratky because you did not leave room for air roots. Right? Also, you do not cover the top of the net pot with clay pebbles to keep algae from growing?

[@manjus3]

Thanks for this excellent video. Can you refill the bucket with the nutrient-rich water as and when the water level drops, or is this just a one-time thing?

[@bimjeam0088]

what kind of vinegar? what kind of nutrients you use?

[@hsbc2468]

Vinegar is only a temporary PH solution. Best to purchase PH up or PH down. What about an EC measurement?

[@christopherinnocent6730]

Nice video but why did you not show the formulation that's recommended as fertiliser for lettuce.... just saying to use 5 teaspoon full dies not help me.

[@ASpinnerASpinner]

Those buckets aren't food grade/food safe. No point in growing toxic lettuce since you can just buy that at the store.

Hello fellow Floridian! Does it matter whether you from them inside or outside? I’m just worried about critters eating them.

[@gilcyrilfernandez5172]

What is the humidity and temperature required to grow the lettuce successfully? Thanks. Awesome video. Very simple and informative.

[@johnnypedersen1792]

Lettuce is a cool growing crop so the best temperature is around 60-65 deg F. Above this it tends to bolt and taste bitter.

[@bobcalder4996]

I tried using distilled white vinegar to adjust the pH and it developed algae. All the rockwool turned green. Is there any type of "fix" for this?

[@PlasmaOne]

Only fix for algae is light proofing the container. Some algae growth on the rockwool cubes is normal, not a whole lot you can do about that. When you put a bunch of nutrients in water and give it light you get a bunch of algae growth

[@DuetToIt]

I just added 8 tsp vinegar to my vertical romaine towers 4 gallons of water. It lowered my pH just like you said it would. This is excellent content. Thank you for sharing.

[@greyhnd001]

I would use a under bed storage box. They are about 6 inches deep. Perfect for salad. And it takes up less space but you would have to monitor the water level or create a basin with a 20 or 30 gallon Rubber made container and run a pump. yes it would use electricity but would be well worth it. But great video. Thank you.

[@tripsquared_greenworks]

Do you need to flush the lettuce before harvest? Does it taste different with nutes in it?

[@smcarriedo357]

Nice tutorial, Hannah. The nutrient you're using isn't available here. Is there a way for you or chem buddies to help me prepare the nutrient solution by combining the needed ingredients/materials to be taught by you?

[@nelen.9061]

Great video. Thanks for posting. I have some questions. At the end of the process, there is a lot of water left. Is there some special reason for 5 gallon or we can use smaller buckets?

[@graebeard6882]

On one of these types of videos, it was mentioned that one lettuce plant typically requires one gal of solution. Since the lid is too small for five plants there is leftover solution. I don't know how long the individual plants continue growing after harvesting SOME of the leaves, so it will continue using up the solution. I would imagine that if it keeps growing you could refill the bucket.

[@tsilb]

This fancy "set it and forget it" method is actually called "Kratky". Searching for Kratky will yield you much better search results.
