I dont think a baffle would help much, tom roots tend to completely fill whatever space is available. I have 8 plants in a 200L chamber (no...
I use strimmer line and electrical connector blocks for clamping. Its strong enough to support fully loaded 7ft gardeners delight at a 45 degree...
Most off the shelf tomato fertilizers dont contain much, if any, calcium.They rely on it being in the soil or in the source water. Most of these...
Epsom will only help if its a magnesium deficiency but looking at the plant i`d say its more likely overfeeding and overwatering. Mg doesnt affect...
There`s a chance you can turn them around even though you wont save the fruit thats already affected. Transpiration is the driving force for...
The issue is not knowing if the compost is supplying everything the plant needs. If it is then adding nutes to the water will lead to a buildup in...
It cant be my mix as my toms dont use any medium at all, just mist ;) The 6ml/L will supplement the compost to the tune of N: 111ppm, K: 185ppm,...
Toms need a lot more nitrogen,potassium and calcium during fruit production. The potassium is stockpiled "in the plant" from the point the first...
The plants are likely getting most of what they need from the compost,at least for now. The GH AB is more or less acting just as a supplement at...
I suspect the roots will head straight for the reservoir via the holes the spikes made ;)
I use 2 vertical towers to grow 70 plants in a 6ft x 3ft area. I`ve also used hanging shoe racks filled with compost attached to the fence. I...
White spots suggests spider mites but they`re not wormlike. Not easy to see them let alone squish them ;) Neem oil is good but it has to be...
Dick always seemed to work backwards, he`d build whatever it was then try to figure why it didnt work, physics and thermodynamics arent his thing...
Mr strawbridge`s design isnt effective, physics/thermodynamics dont seem to be his strong point ;) The performance of a system is related to how...
They do but not quick enough to be useful.What you need is 200ft waterfall or a 200ft deep trench next to a river ;)
I dont comsider it to be high tech, it doesnt involve heatpumps or any of that malarky. The plants generate the water vapour through transpiration...
Given that nowadays you can control your heating from your phone.. that would`ve been met with similar sceptism as my greenhouse in 2008, switches...
My ventilation and cooling are seperate, i mainly use passive venting at night or occasionally in the day to replace co2. The cooling consists of...
Nature has all the answers, i`ve used the ground under the greenhouse to control the temperature since 2009. I did a test last year during that...
Ventilation helps but its limited by the outside temperature and how much air you can move. I can keep the greenhouse temperature in check without...
