    one additional tip ive learned is to mix the fertilizer solution in a separate gallon container and use that to top off the DWC system, that way the fertilizer solution stays consistent and theres no fluctuation or risk of burn.

    I use fora micro, it’s super easy and doesn’t appear to burn. I only use half the recommended dose though, normal dose puts my PPM over 1k, anything over 900 the nutrient uptake gets wonky…. At least from experience. This was a wonderful video, learned a few new things. Thank you :)
    Edit: I grow mainly cannabis which can be tricky and I was also using a compost tea. I haven’t tried a full dose of flora again though after I started seeing discoloration in the leaves. This specific plant doesn’t like 1k + PPM until late flower.

    You have a wonderful delivery of this and I thank you. I intend to "dip my toes" into this next year with Tomatoes, Herb things and maybe various Peppers. I have no way of controlling anything so I will have to make a judgement on that. I will probably use Kratkey unless I can find some way of getting electricity although I will look at a battery operated system. Many thanks.

    • @TikkiOOO
      @TikkiOOO  4 года назад

      Good luck James...take my advice, start with lettuce or herbs, not fruiting plants until you get more than just your toes wet. Basil and parsley grow easily in my experience, wishing you success!

    Easiest way to know if you need to add water is having a reservoir container and have all your hydro buckets connected together with tubing going from container to container and use a circulation pump. The reservoir bucket needs to be the same height as the main growing buckets and will be in sequence and it will have a clear 1/2 inch tube connected to the bottom of your reservoir bucket 🪣 with an elbow, now this tube is cut to the length of the height of the reservoir. The reason for the tube is to allow you to always know the height of the water in your system and the reservoir bucket allows you to add water to your system without having to disturb your growing buckets. The other advantages of the reservoir is it allows you to check your systems chemistry and also for adding pre fertilized water without disturbing your main growing buckets.

    Use an ec meter when topping up your water. Find out what ec the plants you're growing like, then dilute or add nutrients as needed. If you don't do that you're just guessing what the nutrient level is in your water.

    Have you ever tried a hydroponic method for large veggies or fruit, like zucchini squash or cantaloupe in a large container such as a big tote box or trash can? I would like to try that in the Kratky method this spring and summer. It would sure save me from a lot of digging. I've grown lettuce and cherry tomatoes in mason jars Kratky style, but nothing big before. Thanks for the video, Tikki.

    • @TikkiOOO
      @TikkiOOO  4 года назад +1

      No Sheri, I haven't. I grow the hydroponics indoors, and there is just not enough room for all the stuff I want to grow. Check out Jeb Gardener's videos on hydroponics, he does some interesting things with the Kratky method. I saw he once tried to grow a radish using Kratky!

    Hello Tikki, i was wondering if it is possible to grow two different veggies in the same deep water container. say cucumber and bell pepper. i see that they make good companions in soil but what about in hydroponics ? thank you

    • @TikkiOOO
      @TikkiOOO  4 года назад +1

      Interesting, I always keep my plants in separate containers, didn't think to try, but I don't see why not? In my Aerogarden I have different herbs growing with lettuce, so it should work since that is DWC. Only way to find out is to try....thanks for the question and comment!
