Look great what light what month etc and what latitude I’m in uk

yeah pretty campy

Jeb Gardener "ravishing" would have been nice.

Radishi if you wanna have weird plurals

That's funny 🤣🤣🤣

Sorry but you won't sleep well tonight. Heads going to be spinning.

what lights do u use for indoor hydroponics

KelseyRainbow same

Thanks Leilani!

thanks J

@@JebGardener planted my carrot seedlings today in a 5-gal. bucket with Perlite in a paint strainer bag, water and nutrients.

I know it's so uncomplicated!

Jeb Gardener hey Jeb I love all your videos .. I started my radish almost the same way with but i wonder about the light cycle ? thanks in advance! please keep posting vids

+justmeinflorida Yeah the taste wasn't too strong for me but I don't know if the family will be fans of it. Thanks for watching!

+Jeb Gardener Here's the recipe www.huffingtonpost.com/viviane-bauquet-farre/radish-top-soup_b_3958892.html. And a couple of more tasty recipes vomitingchicken.com/eat-greens-5-ways/. Check em out, you guys might just change your mind ;)

haha

Thank you.

True

@@JebGardener I do love the music, I even turned it up to make sure I wasn't missing it. But the quietness, the serene lack of excessive noise was nice. Kinda like those ASMR videos.I don't watch them, I find the whispering a bit creepy! But I could watch you growing videos all day... Please don't start whispering in the videos.

Thanks Tesmon!

My guess is they don't make a practice of buying that many cookies at one time.

Oh we do! But those with that branding is usually bought by Chinese guys ;)

the smaller round ones are more normal here, but its the kind of thing where nobody knows -who- buys them, but they still exist. nobody exactly wants them, but nobody is going to refuse them, and nobody is going to throw out those perfectly usable tins either. a lot of old things are like that, sticking around, mysteriously

haha

Thanks!

Use a sunny window if you have it!

I've used peat moss and vermiculite outdoors too.

Lol the thorns were burning my mouth!

Jeb K tried roasted radish and carrot leaves with olive oil cooked at high temp with just salt and pepper to see if they were edible... And they were. The mix of the two tasted like kale chips almost lol. Odd, but not a waste of greens lol

welcome

Outdoors works great. Check out my broccoli video. I had some rain so i didn't have to water it once. If rain consistently overflows your tote you'll need to cover it during storms. The only real problems I think there are for Kratky is long term crops, so wheatgrass should work great. That's not to say it's the most cost effective method for every crop. I haven't grown wheatgrass, but I suspect if you look up some of the hydroponic fodder videos (people growing oat or barley sprouts for rabbits or goats) you might find a cheaper method.

I know. So tasty

yes they seem tougher than most folks think

I think I just needed more time there to display the text.

that guys is wacky! i need to do a stream of that game

sounds fun

exclude light for algae, add air for slime, plant might do fine without intervention though

@@JebGardener Thanks for the help :)

Yeah, the main issue was legginess because they weren't close enough to the light. Some of them split too but not too badly. Thanks for watching!

I suspect hydro stores are all,over the world

Milliard 4-Foot, 4-Bulb Grow Light Fixture with 6500k bulbs cost about $100 at the time. www.amazon.com/Milliard-4-Foot-4-Bulb-Fixture-Included/dp/B00N1YYLDY/ref=cm_cd_al_qh_dp_i

Nice. I have a T5 HO I was using over an aquarium. Im going to use it. Thanks

Jeb Gardener what size totes are you using? I've watched a number of videos and read endless comments trying to figure it out lol. Do you have a rule of thumb for how many plants per X sized tote? I realize it would depend on what you're growing and how fast they take up water/nutrients. I just started my first radishes and spinach because of your hilarious and awesome videos.

I haven't grown any more indoors because with all the rock wool it isn't really cost effective. Also they grow so easy outdoors it isn't really necessary until the summer heat. I want to try it again without rock wool to see if I can get that to work. Thanks!

I started with rockwool, tried coco coir, and eventually settled upon aged wood chips. Rockwool costs too much and doesn't seal up the net pots well enough to prevent evaporation. Coco coir isn't free either, plus it attracts fungus gnats to no end. Wood chips are free and since they don't wick up water so ferociously, I can keep the fungus gnats from getting too excited about it because the top of my net pots stay nice and dry.

It's a 4 foot 4 bulb High Output T5 fluorescent fixture with 6500k bulbs.

+Jeb Gardener thanks!!

seems like balanced mix works best for most plants

That's right. Nothing but Kratky method happening down there.

Thanks, just got a bunch of stuff from Amazon today, so can't wait to get started!

you may find your EC is too low

Cool! What grade level?

as long as the roots don't get battered, it seems like it would be fine

@@JebGardener thank-you. I put 5 gallon pump in half litre nutrient jar, plant was tomato, roots started brown and leaves started drooping down and older leaves petiole starts shrinking.

You would have to replant to get more radishes.

I don’t think ph matters much until you add nutrients. Focus on light

1) only grow plants edible to humans 2) don't use radioactive water 3) wash them if they are dirty 4) eat eat eat, it will be safer than anything else you can get your hands on 5) I'm not a doctor or food safety expert, so please ignore 1-4

Jeb Gardener I believe the natural method is to gather your family and have everybody eat some, then have those who survive breed like crazy and have their children repeat the same process. Eventually it will become edible after several generations

i think part of that is that in nature they sprout in much cooler temps, so early growth is slowed outdoors

@@JebGardener I think so too, I have some outside where it reaches around 45-50 at night and they are all less lanky and standing tall although the leaves haven't developed as much as the hydro has yet

That is possible but I've grown large radishes indoors in hydro and they didn't flower. I think air temps, watering, stress, or day length might have more effect on that.

68-72 degrees Fahrenheit

Jeb Gardener Thank you Jeb ,have a great day

Alex Lagerquist put bread in it

that's how radish leaves look

kratky method

grows well

By harvest time it's usually almost gone. I dump it on fruit trees and bushes.

cool man - digging your channel :)

The biggest thing I kratky'd so far is broccoli. Kratky can be a problem for longer lived plants because the inevitable topping off of the nutrients can lead to a nutrient imbalance or salt buildup. I might have to try one of those for fun though!

Can't you just empty it then replenish with the same nutrients from the beginning but maybe living the roots half in the air half in water.

I'm pretty sure it would work. It kind of defeats some of the allure of Kratky, because now you can't just set it and forget it.

Everytime I try anything in a kratky system it never works. Yet, I keep trying because I am lazy...hahaha

I think the cracking is actually from the rapid growth.

I should but I'm terrible at it. It dries out in my desert climate. I should put water on it regularly, but I can barely keep the plants alive in this heat!
