I loved all this thread and the pics are cool....been thinking about starting hydro myself for the same reasons here in SE FL. Besides bugs and heat I'm also contending with Iguanas now. Keep up the good work :)

You can also pick up the pot to see how heavy it is. Really light... needs water, really heavy it doesn't. This is not a 100% test just a guideline.

Not really due to my error but Iguanas seem to like peppers and pepper plants.... almost lost the only 2 I have left.

I'm so jealous Hybrid_Mode_01    

put mulch on top to hold it down and keep moisture in.

You could actually be right...the ones I planted in the 2ltrs on 3/18 I noticed the roots are already down the sides and heading out the holes I put in bottoms. I always thought that onion roots were shallow, but still would think that they would travel thru out the kiddy pool. Oh well, Ill see...

dub_sauces They haven't bulbed at all yet, they look like large scallions or small leeks. They fell over when they were small and stayed that way...I didn't want to move them around to much because of the sensitive root system.   ako1974  Ya I took pictures before I watered them. After the first...

I agreed with your comment Solid, especially with the mega treated water down here. I don't have a rain gutter off my roof, it just rolls off in spots with 5gal HD buckets to catch it. I would use it till it got to about an inch from the bottom, then dumped and cleaned the bucket for the next rain.

Do you guys find rainwater off of an asphalt shingled roof a problem? 

How would you use that to test soil?  

I love everyone on this forum.. they are so giving in one way or another. Love this site.  

Hey guys, all those plants look great. I tried planting some down here in S FL in a kiddie pool. I planted them on October 16th 2016 and its long past the 120 days. I still don't see any bulbing and somehow they were growing sideways. The sun is now moving to the back of the house so the...

Nice job :)  

Get rid of any ant hills and such if you can.... they transport the aphids to your plant and eat the honeydew from them.

I did the mistake of putting cookie dough on a counter that hubbie cut habs on and had spicy chocolate chip cookies. :p Got the seeds and will start using them this weekend. Whoot :)   Thanks greatly.   Angie

My hubbie just brought up another option but as before I'm not sure on the cost but there is a paint you can place on the basement walls that will suppress the amount of moisture that will seep in. Otherwise as long as you have good air circulation you should be able to keep the moisture at bey.

Could be damage or diseased roots. I had a whole plant just wilt to death. Some kind of wilt rot...cannot for the life of me remember the name of it

I'm not sure about the cost or the ability, but would using Damp Rid or something like that help work on keeping some of the moisture down? It might not be cost efficient, but just thinking of other options for you.
