tower #2--3 updates

tower #2 is growing great one of the eggplant stems broke they got to heavy and the cucumbers kindof took them down trying to grow. Maybe next time we shouldn't plant certain plants that close or on the same stage of the tower the ph was good it was 6.0 so its staying green

tower #3 is growing strong as we moved the two towers away from eatchother we had to prob the pumpkin up on the window so it gets more light  everything is still going great especially the kale its getting crispy and soon enough we will be able to make kale chips the ph was 7.0 still doing good

Updates!

The pH 7.5 and since it was a little high we added 5mL of pH minus! There are a few that haven't  sprouted yet so we are going to replant on Monday!

Updates!

Tower 2 is doing great!The pH was 7.0 and it's still growing really fast and using a lot of water! We had to add another 10 gallons of water! And we had to add 200mL of A and B fertilizer!


Tower 3 is doing great too! The pH was 7.5 we harvest the spinach and the Roman lettuce and we had about two pounds of it! We also added 5 gallons of water and put both A and B fertilizer in it!

Tower 1 and Tower 2 updates!

Tower one is stilling in the process of sprouting! The pH was a little high at 8.0! But we took care of that and added what the Kindergartners like  to say is their "Meds" or knowns as the pH minus. And also we added  30mL of fertilizer.




Tower two is still growing great! The pH was 7 and we didn't need to add water since they did yesterday!

11/8/17 Update (Mr. Miller)

Went ahead and added water to Grow Tower #2.  Added 9 gallons of water and A and B mineral blend (180 ml/each).  I noticed that there are now some flowers on the Eggplant plants as well.  The cucumbers are just growing all over the place with A LOT OF flowers.  Hopefully with some more "pollination" we can get some more cucumbers to set on.  pH was at 7.5 so no adjustments were made.
