I live in an HOA neighborhood and could not set up a greenhouse, so my systems are in the basement. 2 Grow beds, function completely separately from the other, one media and grow lights for blooming plants, one float system for greens and herbs. Hybrid Bluegill support greens, channel catfish support media. 4' x 4' grow beds sit on top of the 150 gal tanks, with hinged lids for feeding and maintenance. Massive aeration, pumps, dechlorinater filter delivery system, all built by expanding local plumbing company.

Cucumbers wither and die

Posted on June 25, 2015 at 10:14am 7 Comments

my indoor system is 2 months old. All test numbers are in range. Cucumber plants grew huge and strong, 3 varieties, trellised and lots of light. Lots of flowers, became little cucumbers. After reaching 1 inch in length, they each withered and died, from bottom of vine, all the way up to latest cukes. Removed all vines, and planted 12 more plants in other grow bed, other fish tank. And ideas why the huge loss? Thx.
