[@kingsolomon416]

Hi, just crossed your videos and they are really informative and been looking for sellers specialised in greenhouses and it's accessories, thanks to you been able to know few of them. Thanks a lot

[@theroostergardenandcityhom9323]

Hello from Benton Arkansas, USA. Now y'all have done it. Made my brain start to work again. I really like watching your channel. Learn so much from you. I hope y'all are having a super day.

[@jeffaiello2168]

Thank you for all of your ideas and information. I have used them to help start our autism friendly urban farm called Logan's Run Farm here in Pittsburgh. Your channel is so underrated.

[@oby-1607]

Wow. You have entered the realm of the big greenhouses. Will be nice to see the progress.

[@aswedeinthephilippines6967]

Im still amazed by how amazing all u planst are and how well organized everything is. I would love to see it for real. Both of u knowlwed of all things is just awesome and u have a very good way to explain things. Thank u so much for sharing u wisdom.

[@farmerdre1]

Looking very good!

[@qmoonwalker3847]

Very interesting set-up. Will be watching for future updates and I need to go back to your earlier videos to understand how this system works. Thank you!

[@RickMarshallMaps]

Thanks again. Great to see the progress.

[@janetleeharrison]

That looked like it took less time to set up the new greenhouse & have it planted too - WOW!!! If this works out, I see more green houses in your future for sure. Fingers crossed it works & can't wait to see updates - FUN video series - thanks guys for including us!

[@driqbal316]

This is really exciting. Thanks for sharing!

[@ftagreenhousesolution1170]

Wow~ Your guys did great work ! Amazing ~

[@karrielangston4005]

I can't wait to see how it progresses! I was excited to hear you are letting a sucker grow with main stem on tomatoes. Looks like a pricey setup I doubt I'll ever try, but learning via friends is excellent!

[@FirstCatch]

I like the setup. Big 👍

[@philsla]

Excited about the new adventure. Will be watching and learning!!!

[@BusyBeaver22]

Very interesting love the block system. Love your channel. Keep em coming

[@jermaineknight]

Big hello from Barbados in the Caribbean :) just found your channel and I like the videos a lot

[@jossduncanweir5893]

This is so informative and interesting....I am looking forward to progress reports during the season. The 2 stem option is fantastic and helps with the economics of the system....and I cant wait to see the results. Keep up the great videos, please! Duncan, New Zealand.

[@primalgraphx5747]

[@tecnohuerta3451]

Is perfect !!!!! I'm learning with yours videos and improve my inglish at the same time 👍👍👍from Argentina

[@CajonLiving]

Thanks for showing how it's done. It looks simple and easy, so that might fit my needs for me being lazy. Brent put a kink in it because here it's crawfish cooking hot. I'll be adding earth battery cooling pipes to my greenhouse but that will only cool the water to keep the roots cool in flow system so it wouldn't work with this system. Thanks Brent for pointing that out.

[@richsan4808]

this looks like a very interesting system hopefully there's a part three the nutrients he adds to the water and the size of the pump etc.

[@chiragsorathiya4379]

[@OceanSpritePixieBobs]

Ive been looking what is the Long Block . I dont know what the name is bit im just learning thank you for sharing your amazing gardening skills . SS for the loss of your hubby. bless you

[@C3Voyage]

I believe it's called "Flow to Waste" aka "Drain to Waste". It's a fun and the easiest because you don't have to worry about ph, ppms/ec, and a recirculating system. Are you concerned about the how hot the coco-blocks will get during mid-day? It was a concern of mine and I wanted to put a bug in your ear to keep an eye on root-zone temps. Looking forward to your season.

[@josephglazier3286]

totally agree, watch them root temps.

[@Prakaz]

How much % of water is "wasted" in this system? The excess nutrient is just going to flow on the floor?

[@paulbrownett3673]

@Mike Gray Coconut coir holds massive amounts of liquid whilst still giving a high degree of root aeration. You do not over soak nor undersoak if the system craps out you still have time to fix it. Plant husbandry means you look at it all at least once a day if not more. You do not need a huge pump most hydroponics work off a fairly small sump pump in the barrel. Mine in NZ - we used the venturi effect mainly to suck fert up along with the water drop from a tank fed from a waterfall.

[@TAWolfe]

I would love to see links to all the items you used?! Very clean and excited to see how it grows.

[@wilfridteina3823]

Thank you for this vidéo.

[@davidjordan1821]

Just great. I have three green houses using raised beds. How you tried growing Blackberries using the same system? There are several Spring Hill Farms? Where are you located?

[@lunkerpond9765]

Pretty neat

[@denhaagholland5406]

Looking good ! what will you do with your drain water from the slabs? Good luck!

[@Axel-Jett]

What's inside the slabs?

[@hurdman7899]

Love it.

[@rodsboots]

Awesome!! You guys are a really cool inspiration! What are you going to use for nutrient?

[@Growwiththelaplantes]

Thank you! we will be doing a video on Nutrients and irrigation system very soon! stay tuned!😉

[@muhammedkhasim6719]

Wow very interesting,What do you use for shedding, i mean what material is used for covering the whole garden ? What material is used for supporting the plant ,i saw something you have hanged from upside to down .Can you please tell me this .

[@highergroundfarm7527]

Looks really interesting. Can you reuse the slabs? Looking forward to watching your progress with this method. Thanks.

[@Nix4me]

So there is no excess water to get rid of?

[@mviswanathan]

How do you the drain excess nutrients fed to the slabs? Is there a recirculation system?

[@Growwiththelaplantes]

There is no recycling of nutrients. everything we pump into the system is absorbed into the slabs. we only run the system for approximately 5 minutes each time.

[@mviswanathan]

Spring Hill Farms Thanks. How expensive are the slabs? Any link you can share?

[@bravexavier]

Can you guys do a video showing the irrigation setup for this?

[@Growwiththelaplantes]

Yes, we will be doing one very shortly.

[@richardschaffling9882]

Good video and the greenhouse looks great but do you have to replace the BVB slabs every year

[@lloydjhonsilagan3111]

Hi maam. The water of the drip irrigation for the tomato have nutrient solution already?

[@Growwiththelaplantes]

Yes, the nutrients are in the tank

[@shaneburke9352]

Looks great, nice easy system, what happens to the coco coir and the rock wool at the end of the season? Can you somehow recycle or reuse the waste? Obviously plants can be composted

[@HalimSihotang]

Amqzing. Where dou buy slab BVB?

[@tomquimby4869]

Impressive! About a month ago, I started growing a few hydroponic tomato plants in a 50-50 mix of perlite and vermiculite. Others are in the soil. Pretty interesting so far. Hydro cherry tomatoes are already out-producing the potted ones. However, we'll have to wait and see how they taste. Eager to keep up with your progress. We're thinking of using our greenhouse for hydroponic gardening. Can you reuse those growing mediums you're using? If so, how many times?

[@52oldtimerocker]

Can you reuse the slabs or do you have to start over every season? This looks amazing and really appreciate sharing all this info! Would not do anything on this scale but am always looking to improve my gardening skill set.

[@Romoa.777]

En verdad quiero aprender porque en México hay muchos jóvenes que se dan a las drogas y a la perdición porque no tienen en que trabajar la hidroponía, es excelente

[@nandikalaksiri3560]

Hey Mate.. Very interesting your videos thanks for that and I would like to know how to make Nutrient for tomatoes and capsicums

[@hansgruetzenbach3945]

When the water goes from the block to the slab, where does the water go then?

[@paulbrownett3673]

When I had Hydro 18 years ago in NZ the water (including fert) goes into the bag 3 times a day - the plant then takes it up - if it is hot there is some losses through evaporation. This is slightly different to doing a NFT (Nutrient film technique) where you continuously flow nutrient and water through the troughs and collect the excess at the other end of the trough - that returns to the main tank to have fert adjusted. Sorry if treading on your cute tootsies Patty but I could not resist.

[@paulbrownett3673]

@Doodle Doo Doo Depends on how big the hobbyist is - using coco coir bags it is not that expensive - it depends on what you want - the coco coir holds the water/nutrients better than peat - if peat dries out it takes a lot to get it to rehydrate coco does it much faster. If doing say 6 bags and using a 45 gallon drum and simple drip stuff off ebay it does not cost the earth.

[@paulbrownett3673]

@Doodle Doo Doo I was a Commercial grower in NZ some 20 years ago and came across Coco Fibre by accident. I liked it because I could put whatever nutrients in that I wanted and it was fabulous. 20 odd years later I have a 250 sq m garden and finally decided to get back growing. We had a local shop with cheap compost but I do not have a vehicle so had to take it home 3 bags at a time. It is OK BUT if it dries out it is a sod to re hydrate and you lose plants. My coco coir is much better at holding moisture and fert. I have been buying coco coir from an excellent company - the owner of which I apparently bought from many moons ago and I get fabulous prices and delivered to the door. We are also cooperating on possible organic and inorganic ferts for him to sell as well. Can supply the name - not sure if he does where you are but he is a real gentleman not a conman.

[@danebelarmino4809]

I've been very curious how this system works. Does the water recirculate or do the plants just get irrigated, the substrates absorbs the unused nutes until the plants are ready to uptake them, any excess irrigation just drips out of the substrate? Did i get it right? Thanks.

[@chelinfusco6403]

Wow! This is looking amazing. You will keep us posted on the progress, right? At this rate, I think you could grow corn too! Hahaha, better not give you more ideas.

[@varnamq3]

Can you share the details about the black sheet that covers your floor, a product link will be good. Is it perforated?

[@billwilliams4748]

I didn’t see the two stem system utilized in your more traditional dirt greenhouse setup. Is there an inherent advantage in this hydroponic system that enables use of the two stem system or is this simply another variation to test? Huge fan of your videos, this is my favorite YT channel.

[@roccoconte2960]

Is the coco bvb reusable or do you have to replace it every planting? Good video very interesting.

[@Jsherrod78]

I was interested in the coco slabs and tomahawks? Is there a link to theis two items?

[@carlkaufman7671]

Tomahooks - Johnny's carries them.

[@slimsheep]

Trying to set up a system almost identical but I'm having issues with supplies as I live in the Caribbean. Can you guys offer some help?

[@brucehayes5111]

Looks great 👍. Question. Are you using the same fertilizer water for all 3 vegetables?

[@ianbadajos4297]

Where does excess water from the slabs go?

[@sophiebuzora9616]

Do you have double wall poly on your greenhouses?

[@lkhbhydroponic6858]

Awesome. Is it gonna be winter growing house as well?

[@chinmayharkare2429]

The first question which came to my mind is that of where does the excess water go to. It has already been answered that watering is done in small amounts to ensure that there is no run off. Another major question I have is that as water is evaporating and if the plants absorb more water on say hot days as compared to the nutrients, wouldn't the EC/TDS level of the medium keep on increasing slowly over say a week or so? If this goes to dangerously high levels, wouldn't the plant get affected? Is there a need to run plain water after a fixed number of days to reduce the concentration in the medium?

Hi, I like what you do! Could you tell me how you feed the tomatoes planted in the coconut substrate? With a food unit, do you understand the exact amount of fertilizer needed to feed the plants? Thanks for your time!

[@qmoonwalker3847]

Question: I couldn't find it in one of the other videos but did you use roofing felt for the floor? How is it working out?

[@johnfurr8779]

Nice set-up, this is exactly the system I wish to use, BUT I am having issue finding supplier for the coco coir bags. Can I ask who you acquired the BVB bags from?

[@Growwiththelaplantes]

The link is in the Part 1 video. A.M.A Plastics is where we purchased from. For some reason I can't put the links on this video. I'm assuming it's my internet connection so I'll try again later.

[@johnfurr8779]

@@Growwiththelaplantes thanks.I can't meet the minimum purchase requirements for many of AMA's items.... our greenhouse is 16 x 32 and our outdoor hydroponics if only about 4 times that area. I'm so glad to see you going this route, because we're trialing the same method against grodan slabs with nutrient recovery this year. But not sure how valid our results will be with the no name coco coir bags we will likely have to resort to. between you and Zan at Plover Mills I am able to get a good idea how the non-industrial scale hydroponics people are operating. It is much appreciated.

How many seasons can the slabs be used?

[@wraphand]

Terrific set up! Just one question though, are you just adjusting up the hydro nutrients you usually use in the lettuce house, or are you using a formula specially suited for tomatoes? It is really difficult to find dry hydro nutrients (for hobby gardeners) that isn't packaged in tiny amounts and geared to marijuana growing :/

What's the cost of each roots "square"? I assume it's one time use only and each season will need a new one.

To answer my own question ...it seems about $1-2 US..... so $200ish per one greenhouse.
