Jeff's been reading about hydroponics this winter and decided to try it so he built a plant stand out of an old tv table and some 1x2's. He added a shop lite fitted with a grow light and ...he was on his way! There are peppers and 1 large tomato planted in a plastic storage bin that he had outfitted with wicky pots filled with compressed clay pellets, and a watering system. The concentrated liquid nutrients cost more than everything else put together but he's getting results! The growlight has had to be raised about 6 times...sometimes twice in 1 day. Now we're waiting for the plants to flower and produce veggies.
