Good read about Hydroponic Rose Growing
Comments (5)The post was from 2011 so it is not surprising that the link no longer works. This may be his site now: http://www.campbellsindoorgardening.net/...See MoreFavorite to grow Hydroponic Determinate Slicing Tomato?
Comments (2)Supporting a determinate is somewhat difficult in usual hydro setups (like buckets with pipes etc). They need something like cages for support due to their bushiness, and you don't have the ground to stick them in. Also they are not very space friendly, there is a reason you never see anyone doing but indeterminates in hydro (production vs squre foot space so to say). Praleska is a good determinate but it's not really a slicer, more like 2 maybe 3 oz round tomato. Look at russian varieties, determinates are popular there and they breed a lot of OP tomatoes, they must have some early slicers....See MoreRooting citrus cuttings in a hydroponic setup
Comments (13)Dave one does have a few new light green leaves at the top and the other one just has one small blossom and no new growth! And it’s holding onto one old leaf that’s been cut in half. It’s getting the aerogarden nutrients one capful. But I’m sure it’s not enough since it’s meant for greens and herbs and such. one of them has super long roots the other has a few very short roots so maybe I should pot Up the one with the long roots and try to put it slowly into full sun?...See More2-for-1 citrus surprise!

Comments (8)I did not, unfortunately I had the water level too low and that one didn't make it. The one in soil didn't seem to notice it had been moved at all, so I cut a couple of the branches back to let the straighter one become the leader and I have two cuttings from it rooting right now. Those will be in hydro from the start so they should develop more suitable roots....See Moreponcirusguy6b452xx
