Tomatoe

This is the soil growing tomatoe, growing much faster than the "DWC" tomatoes which i thought the complete opposite would happen like every other plant, but maybe just have not given it enough time to fully catch up from the transplant.

Final day of the buttercrunch lettuce!

Looks amazing! long leaves, very crispy cant wait to make a sandwich!

The Classic Battle!



Hey everyone, I planted both these tomatoes at the same time, one in soil, one in a "DWC". It would seem that tomatoes dont really like a hydroponic set-up. The one in soil as you can tell is 3 times the size of the other one. Now this could be just because the roots have not had time to hit the water in the tank, but only time will tell. Let The Battle Continue!

What is this plant?




Hey everyone, I got this plant from my mom, its growing in a 2 litre "Wick System". Works wonderful I only water about once every 3 weeks. I have no idea what its called.  Does anyone know?

Moonflower Has Recovered!




Hey everyone, amazing my moonflower has bounced back very well, it has grown back all that was burnt off and more!

Moonflower In Recovery




The moonflower is in recovery now because it had grew to the lights and burnt a few inches of it overnight. Cut the burnt part out and now is growing back after a few days.

Hydroponic Basil!



This Basil is completely unknown to me, cant remember which kind it is, i believe its thai basil. just planted about 7 days ago into the "DWC"

Hydroponic Lettuce!


 For my first time growing lettuce it seems to love the "DWC" I'm seeing new growths everyday. They are only about 2 weeks old, very excited for the end result!

Hydroponic Sweet Basil!





This is a beautiful basil plant, I have harvested a few times already, the flavour in fresh basil is amazing and uncomparable to the store bought dried basil.
