Cleaned up my setup. Moved stuff over. Here is the 2x2 flood table. Had to drill holes in the plywood shelf for drain. Since this table had corners cut off I will use it as a watering table.

Need to move my system over about a foot to accommodate a 2x2 flood table. I was just going to move it, second thought... I checked the PH & ppms. PH is at 6 holding steady. PPMs are at 1200. Time to move the setup over. I will post pics once moved.

Congrats on the baby boy.

Here is the purple spotting I mentioned before. I was running a 2 foot 2 bulb t5 HO (48 watts). Now the LED fixture is on low drawing 90 watts.

I do like steamed cactus....

I used a TMS red pod. It was awesome. Pickle with a slight bite. I did use a large jar of pickles, not a small one like that, just a FYI... Pickle juice sucks the heat out of the pepper and infuses it in the pickles.

Try cutting up a super hot and letting in soak in the pickle juice with pickles. It makes some good hot pickles. Like a fine wine. Gets better with age.

I'm getting some purple spotting on the leaves of some plants with the LED light. The LED is on low. I think it is getting a sunburn... Tomatillo seedlings are loving the new LED light.

Here are the green seedlings. They love the LED light.

Have you tried liquid vitamin B1? Home Depot, Lowes, Ace Hardware, OSH, Tractor Supply all carry it.

Don't see why not. My mom used to can tomatoes like that. Pretty much the same thing.

If they start to wilt like that, try giving them some vitamin B1 in water. Usually 1 or two tablespoons per gallon. It will help with the plant stress, leaves will perk up within hours. Valium for plants...

Here is a paper from UC Davis about HOCL. http://ucfoodsafety.ucdavis.edu/files/26414.pdf Good reading.

Looks like too much heat/humidity issue. Mine only get that way when it is too humid and hot. It can't transpire. Make sure it has a fan blowing on them.

Here is the LED light setup. It will be on seedling duty... This is with the T-5 HO setup on next to it. Low power on the LED. T-5s are off. Another from front with low power. Here is one with the high LED setting. The camera does not do it justice. It looks the same but is twice as...

Here are the other 2 varieties.

I was lucky to find the green variety seeds. I know I can go to the store and get them as fresh, but these are a known variety in a seed pack. I also found 2 other varieties of tomatillos at my local hydro shop. The seeds were expired, past sell by date. Got them at a good price. Your are...

I sprouted seed in a bowl or RO water about 5 days ago. Today I just put 16 seeds in potting soil and containers. Went to a friends house for a family dinner. We had green tomatillo salsa with jalapeños in it. It was a delicious green salsa. I came home and took my seeds out of water and...

I went to my local hydro shop. Just picked up a used LED light. It was $30.00, and it works. Could not pass up the good deal. http://shop.haightsolidstate.com/Haight-Solid-State-PPF-400-LED-Grow-light-PPF-400.htm If it fails, I can always repair it. I will use this for seedlings.
