Your channel helped me out so much with growing with the kratky method. I’m blow away how quick it was for my super hots to fruit in small containers. Thank you for all the video help, cheers from Louisiana
I made a mini greenhouse out of a big clear plastic storage container this year. It's about 2ft by 1ft. I drilled a few holes with a one inch hole saw for ventilation and covered the holes with mesh to keep pests out as I keep the container is outside. Anyway I've been really surprised by how little I have had to water things. Even though it has holes in the side a lot of the water vapour condenses on the lid and drops down onto the plant pots or bottom of the container. The humid environment means moisture in the air is reabsorbed into the compost. Even though the container has been outside in direct hot sun the compost has remained moist. Where I would normally have to water a pot every day or every other day it seems I can leave the plants in the container a week easily. I think I will do a couple more containers like this. It's great for when plants are young for keeping pests off. I have been moving the box into shade on really hot days but could easily leave it in full shade if I was to go away. Maybe I'll buy a slightly taller box so plants can stay in there a bit longer. I did think the plants might just end up cooking if the container was in full sun but that hasn't been the case. It's great for those (like me) who don't have space for a greenhouse or polytunnel. I think something like this would work great for inside too.
