deal! ^_^

 

I let you know when the cai sims can be harvest, from the way they are growing, I figure anytime in the next 7-10 days, depending on how young you want them to be.  [laugh]

 

Actually this is my 2nd batch, I made some mistakes in the transferring on the 1st batch and many didnt make it. I didnt give up on the rest and finally manage to save some, and they are growing well too now.  [laugh]

 

post-65783-0-37073500-1494945180_thumb.jpg

 

about 10 stalks from the first batch left, but doing quite well now, I think can harvest soon.  ^_^

 

The lettuces, you just mentioned it, didnt hit me that could be weather too hot, I was still wondering is it seeds not good. 

 

If this batch no good again cfm is  weather too hot liao, mayb switch to kai lan next.  [laugh]

Try using some T5 lights (which is just normal florescent lights) , look for those with above 6000K day lights,  the spectrum of lights are good enough for plant grow. Best is no need high wattage, just adjust the height as the plant grow.  [thumbsup]  [laugh]  [laugh]

Phew!

For a moment I thought it would be human poo & urine; which was used during kampong days. Wasn't uncommon to find semi dissolved toilet papers among the foliage of vege then.

We used to grow some veges when I was young living in kampong, but we only use chicken poo and urine from us kids.  [:p]

 

Actually even if I wanted to use human poo and urine also cannot, all the ammonia will wipe out all my fishes over night. [laugh]  

 

I am running on an aquaponics system.  ^_^
