Hello my fellow gardening enthusiasts. Now that my systems are getting back up to speed I will be making more regular updates like I used to do before the hurricane setback. Today I wanted to give a quick update on my indoor hydroponics wall garden.
With my outdoor hydrogarden back up and running I was able to move the tomato and cucumber startups to that system (previous post) which opened up the indoor system for me to start some lettuce and herb plants.
I have a mix of starter plants that are about 24 days old transplanted and doing well. Currently I have Romaine lettuce, Red Crisp Lettuce, Cilantro, Curled Parley, Dill, and Stevia growing in the bottom two levels, the top level is open to allow me to start the next generation of lettuce to establish a sustainable rotation of plants.
The Stevia plant, top right plant, was not started from seeds. I have tried many times to grow Stevia from seeds with limited success, so it's just easier to buy a starter pot and break it apart into several plants to mix in around my gardens. Once they get established they will spread out and root themselves to keep the next generation going giving you have no major garden setbacks. I have another part in the outdoor system, as well as in soil pots out back.
I am starting the next small batch of lettuce seeds this week, a mix of loose leaf green and reds, and this will establish a proper rotation of plants going forward.
The herbs, tomato, pepper, and cucumber plants will produce for 4-6 months once they mature, so I will not have to worry about them for about 3 months. I will keep up with my updates as things fill in and begin to produce for us.
