Im watching from Kingston, Jamaica. I'm absolutely mesmerized by this type of farming and will be doing it myself. Hopefully, to grow to a commercial scale. These videos really help.
Soo good thank you to this bloke for sharing everything . I really appreciate it cheers from New Zealand . Thank you hoocho for showing me how easy hydro can be im only running kratky atm but plans have been made and the nft is going to be up shortly. You are doing a good thing well done!
Greetings from the USA 🇺🇸 Love your setup! Would love to see how you built it from the ground up! My husband and I are about to purchase a home 🏡 with some land and are looking to do this sort of thing along with raising animals. Thanks for sharing!
Yes Hoocho ! You need to sell the end caps and float covers. Get someone in China to mass produce them .. And then drop ship from China to us Hydro novices and Hydro market greenhouses
Thank you from America for such an information packed video on the vegetable gardening program. I wish you guys all the best! Please continue to share your valuable experiences and knowledge with all of humanity worldwide!
btw you dont need to pump constantly there can be intervals like 15 minutes vor every hour or so. This way you can cut energy costs and not waste energy
Great video! This gets me excited about what I could grow one day! I'd love to know more about the greenhouse, if you don't mind sharing. How is the greenhouse anchored to the ground? It looks like the bases sits on a concrete slab?
My dad sent me this as I wanna try my hands and markets with my NFT system. I'm still a newbie when it comes to the water part still. Good to know about the E.C. cuz I havnt been using it. My bok choy came out super bitter n I was clueless as to why
Hoping you can help answer a question about the Greenhouse material. I'm looking at making a smaller residential one and was looking for that sort of opaque plastic. Looking on Amazon I really only come across Clear or White. Would yours be considered white?
Dang, I'm chill here, an I suddly hear 'prices in Australia' Now I'm really interested, been most vids I found are in USA, Micronesia, outside FB sharing pics, I have found little Oz vid info. Not even seen 'market' vids outside USA.
🍻 cheers Hoocho, always got an eye out for quality companies to give all my 💸💰...we just need them to always be reachable and willing to assist customers, and to be stocking high quality products.
30:06. “I don’t look at them as customers. I look at them as people who are gonna come over and share my product that I’m growing and then give me money for it.” 🤔
Hi Hoocho. I noticed htat you said the temperature inside the greenhouse is 30 degrees. How do you prevent lettuce to bolt at these temperatures?. As far as I have learnt lettuce grows best between 16-22 degrees and tends to bolt and get bitter at higher temperatures. Btw, I live on the South-wes tcoast of Norway.
Hey man, thanks a lot for your vdeos, it has been so hellpfull to watch them, i need to ask, how much water solution can i put to a 1000 lettuce plant?? in hydroponic system
I wouldn't sell out of the rain gutters or vinyl fencing pieces. Its made from soft plasterized vinyl which over time leaches out nasty stuff, over time. Use only Schedule 40 water pipe etc but NO no soft plasterized vinyl's. Per chemical engineers etc. Other wise nice set up and good ambitions to get away from all the chemicals and fungicides etc. Rain gutters and fence pieces were chosen awhile back by a particular You Tuber because of low costs and a single (not over time) water test that isn't correct in totaling the outcome for accurate water test. Everyone has copied using these unwise materials. Use only Hard solid Schedule 40 for your Hydroponics and listen to the experts. Thanks for sharing
hoocho , my 25 000 litre pond aquaponics here with some vertical towers and flood and drain beds is using 400litres a day i would guess . is this guy going through 500litres i heard from 700 litres down to 200litres so 500litres lost in a day?.. i feel really bad like is there a leak in my system trying to figure out if its normal . by the way 41c heat everyday at my place so very deadly . take care thanks for your videos
Hi Hoocho Great video you are very good teacher. Little question: The tips of the center leaves of my romaine lettuce are black. The EC is at 1.4 the PH is at 7 Es that it is the lack of ventilation. And if I wont to send you a picture is this possible. Because I think a photo worth 1000 words.
This channel is friggin amazing. Absolutely love it. I need to find an agronomist in Scotland to give me a little advice on a system I plan on building in a few months.
That is amazing. If I could find the land at an affordable price it wold be a dream to grow for markets in the UK. If anyone has a field or old industrial site going cheap in Bromley, Kent, get in touch.
Hoocho, you have shown us many Hydroponic systems, but the purpose of your channel as you have said is to make Hydroponics affordable to everyone. If you take out pumps and electricity, that just leaves the passive systems. What has been your most successful passive system and what type of dry nutrients are you using and how do you mix it for say a 100 litre reservoir
hey there i am studying hydroponics and aquaponics to see if i can start a small rack for testing at home. can i ask if its better to do this indoor or outdoor ? do i really need a pump timer for this ? what other gadgets are required ? like PH level tester etc... thank you
If you package lettuce and other plants with the roots still attached from your NFT systems and they don’t sell, can you bring them back home from the farmers market and place them back in the NFT troughs and keep them going?
I’ve often through about the idea of a living food display, where you have an NFT like display fixture on a shop wall and just move stock from the main grow area, into the shop. Perhaps even under soft lighting.
