I grow in hydro setups (kratky or dwc) year round but do dabble to adding soil grows come April in chilly NH.

Here are 3 of my baby eggplants growing in the Kratky setup! Enjoy.

Awesome, I'm looking forward to seeing how this all turns out!
Thanks! Planning on at least weekly updates.


I replaced my 25 w LED with a 1000w LED recently and the plants love it!

All of the kratky setup plants are booming compared to the coco pellets being fed nutrients once a day.

The lettuce is now about 3 inches tall and so is the spinach with new leaves.

The tomatoes are about 3 to 4 inches and the bean plants are getting big.

More seeds from the mail today. Hoping the lolla is dark but we will see. I've read good things from these two strains.

Small update.

Harvested some lettuce for a ceaser salad. This cantelope or pumpkin...plant is huge. The roots just didn't stop coming out like white wisps of angel hair.

The spinach and moringa is coming along!

Looking good Avid!  What's that poking up in the middle of row #3?
Ah, good observation! That is a black beauty eggplant seedling.

The smaller version is great but they last for one dinner and gotta wait about a month and a half for more.

Nice!  I like the way eggplants grow - I just wish I liked to eat them more.  I try to source less common peppers and other vegetables directly from other countries and last season I had someone bring over Turkish eggplant seeds for me from Istanbul.  Great blooms on the plants.

Heck yeah! I feel you there. I won't say that they are my favorite but they are growing on me. Especially if you can convince the kids to eat them!

Here is a pic of the patio eggplants. A few more weeks till we can harvest them.

You better get the Salad Shooter ready for action!
Haha don't got one of those but it would be helpful. Next to buy from Amazon. I'm hoping for 30 heads this winter.

Yikes! That sux about the fly problem. The squash looks good, and that radish is wacky. The spinach has grown really big, but is it bolting?
Yep.. One bolting but the rest are good. I hear that spinach leaves are good until the blossom shows so there's to hoping!

Small update.

Lettuce varieties are starting to get true leaves. Either all my lettuce is bolting or crowning.. Never really had success. You tell me?

Small view of everything. Lettuce for days. Beans are starting. :) small beanpod.
