When you’re germinating the seeds ( I watched some of your other videos) are you putting them in the TG with the grow lights? And how are you watering them in the germinating stage? Are you turning on the TG ? Or hand watering until they sprout? I’m confused about this stage. I’m just starting my seeds for the first time this week. And, I love your channel! You are so organized.

Hi there, thanks for your questions. I have done both methods of germination 1) in the germination tray, where I germinate all plants in the germ'n tray, I put them on top of my fridge (may be a bit warmer up there), and have a reminder set to water/spritz them daily. Then when they germinate and are an inch or so high I move them to my tower garden. 2) germinating in the tower garden, works best when the tower is empty. There is water in the reservoir, the lights are on 14-16 hours on the timer, and the water pump is set to "I" for indoor. This works well, but yes I use the tower garden lights and water pump. Easy, very little effort on my part. I just watch them grow:)
@@essicajmj These are hydroponic balls, often called clay pebbles or hydroballs. Easy to find online. Also in hydroponics stores. I don't know that they come in different sizes. The ones I have here are all smaller round pebbles, some a wee bit smaller than others. I hope that helps!

What size clay balls do you use- I haven’t seen these before
