Gardening Update #2 Hydroponics Success and seed starting failure



http://HydroponicsFriend.com

This is my second update 12 days after Update #1. My homemade Hydroponics system is working extremely well. I am very happy with the results. So far its a great success. The pepper plants are showing slight damage, either from cold or more likely over watering. Starting seeds in the Jiffy Pots was a total failure. I believe the salad container was sealed too tightly. This could have easily been avoided by simply leaving the clear lid loose instead of snapping it down.

So what have I learned?
1. Hydroponics is easier than I thought it would be.
2. I have to pay closer attention to not to over water.
3. Too cool temps are deadly to seeds in Jiffy Pots.


Thanks for watching. More videos on my Youtube Channel.
