    • @rr7firefly
      @rr7firefly 7 років тому +9

      Yes, it occurred to me that Prince (Rogers Nelson) also had a voice of this type. Whenever he was on a talk show his whole demeanor was relaxed. And you were relaxed listening to him.

    • @Cherbear609
      @Cherbear609 7 років тому +3

      Yes Noe, Prince seemed to be so comfortable with the universe... i.e.; cause & effect. I'll never believe that his sudden death wasn't a hit... some very powerful elite (I have no idea who) wanted him gone!

    • @arjunpsk
      @arjunpsk 7 років тому +10

      Yes. I didn't know I was interested in hydroponics until I watched these videos. His voice is soothing and that's one of the two reasons I subscribed. The other reason is his tendency to recycle.

    @CharmEng89 7 років тому +7

    Thanks Khang :) It's easy to get side tracked by other videos that have great demos but use a lot of other gardening gear that you don't just have lying around the house. I like this way as it is cheaper for a beginner and all I have to do is buy the plant nutrient - everything else I can find around the house.

    It is amazing how much fruit was on the pepper in the beginning of the video. One would think you would need a much larger container. I just planted some peppers in my Aerogarden that I plan to practice crossing per your video that demonstrates how to do it. You created the interest in me to begin experimenting creating new varieties.

    Aluminum foil and tape works well for eliminating light penetration in your container. This minimizes algae growth in the root growth container where the hydroponic water fertilizer solution is.

The pepper today still looks like your pepper plant before putting in hydroponic. And the honeydew melon is looking really bad. Because of you, for the very first time, I have my cheap hydroponics set up. I transplanted both of them. I used Masterblend solution and did not use half strength. Oops! Maybe I should dilute them in the morning. Thanks again for sharing your experiences and knowledge!
