Our pleasure!

oh that's great. nice to hear from you. wish you did too. please stay in touch!!

it was a pretty cool system but hopefully it gives you some ideas on what you could do to improve your system. Like you are researching the tape. Just my thought on UV. After time you end up getting rid of something like the tape after a growing season or two because it just gets dirty etc. Some of the stuff in growing is just throw away.... I'm thinking the tape Is a good example of that. I'm going to try and fins a cheap replacement that does the same thing. We have used string which works fine but something a little wider would work better. Last market of the year is second week of October. we extend the strawberry season hopefully this year to December and sell all our berries to our CSA program.

Chuck if you get an idea again.... call me ill patented it! Your right those ideas we get when we are working in our greenhouses to improve situations that are making it difficult are the best. Hope you guys are ok with the storms last night. Hope you are recovering! Talk soon..

Thanks for the tips!

Hello! Those are strawberry Bato Buckets and were purchased from CropKing. They are not listed on the website... you have to call them but let them know we sent you and they will take great care of you. tel:+1 330 302 4203 They work great...we really love them

BlueLab. Whatever you choose, don’t go cheap. That’s one of the most important devices in your grow.

I agree with Warren, Blue Lab is the best on the market and its what we use for all of our monitoring systems including the hand held.

so, we are going to grow until the end of December. installing heaters to extend the season.

we buy bare root plants. they are fairly inexpensive and if you can find some other people who need plants.... the more you buy the cheaper the per plant cost is.

I put it in the description, but the dates are April 13-14 May 11-12 Jume 8-9 and class costs $399.00 They give that back to you if you buy a greenhouse.

1.2 for EC and Ph we run 6.0

🤷‍♂️ what are your plants telling you? Bump it down to 3x’s a day or 2-3 min then see what they say 👍 algae? You feeding the roots or just watering the top and letting water soak thru? Somewhere there’s light getting thru to the nutrient solution don’t feed the microbes , that’s my amateur opinion 🤔😳 good luck hope you get a good crop! 👍 ✌️

in the high tunnel strawberries, we water 3 times a day for 2 minutes and like Rawb said we watch the plants to see if we need to increase. You're right the nats are a problem if to wet. We are looking a making a top for our bato buckets that will keep the medium covered and not allow sunlight to hit top of growing medium. Will keep you updated.

Send me a email and will send you a link to the saw horse build

1.2 EC 6.0 for PH

I have seen her off and on over the last year. Sometimes the camera is moving and I wonder if she is the cinematographer and editor. A mystery, but online work can be very stressful, particularly when there are multiple anonymous abusers and there is a family to think about and protect.

Coco coir is a byproduct of coconut fiber. It was first used in gardening in the West in the 19th century, but fell out of favor because the low-quality coco available at the time degraded when used for short-term growing. Toward the end of the 20th century, it was rediscovered as an organic, environmentally sustainable substrate when new production methods made it possible to create hardier product. Coco coir is manufactured using fiber that’s torn from coconut shells. The tiny grains of coir are extracted from the coconut shell and pulverized into a packable growing substrate. First, the coconuts go through the retting process, a curing method that naturally decomposes the husk’s pulp. Traditionally, coconut husks were immersed in water for six months or longer to decompose. Today, the retting process can be completed in a little over a week using modern mechanical techniques. Next, the coconut fiber is removed from the shells by steel combs, in a process known as defibering. Once the fiber, or coir, is gathered from the husk, it’s then dried, pressed into bricks, discs, coir pots. or bagged as a loose mulch. In this dried, processed state, the coir is ready to sell and use.

no everything drains to waste
