I've never grown chard anywhere, actually never ate it either. Im excited!!! I grow all kinds of things in dirt but I've never been really great at edibles maybe this will help. Many thanks
I just found your channel,so very helpful . Helps me so much as I just got my Aerogarden Bounty Elite yesterday. I now need to find videos on what and how to feed them the correct NPK. Subscribed !
4:55 How do you push them down? I have struggled with direct seeding of perpetual spinach, tatsoi and bok choi where the seedings want to push up out of the sponge. I nave now resorted to starting them in coconut coir and then transplanting the seedlings. How do you push them down without breaking the root? TY
Yes, I recommend RainPoint over iDoo. I feel like iDoo is not actively working on hydroponics anymore. Most of the older models are outdated, and I don't see any updates. iDoo 8-pod is the only model I like the most at the moment. RainPoint comes with a bigger bowl, looks better compared to iDoo, well designed, and also performs better.
@@aerogardenexperiments Good to know! Thanks! I already have an idoo system, and wanted a second system. I ordered a RainPoint. I appreciate all of your videos. They're very helpful.
Yeah, fortunately, I haven't seen Aphids for a long time. But the summer is approaching, and I am a bit concerned. So, I am being very careful when I go in and out from outside gardening. Even though I see Aphids in winter sometimes, summer brings more chances of Aphids.
I just recently spoke with a garden nursery that is close to my home. They suggest using Organic Neem Oil, however It is TOXIC to animals, as well as, humans are not to get it on your skin or breathe the vapors. I was told that's what the Nursery uses.... OR she said I could get a small spray bottle with fine mist & mix cpl drops of DAWN Dish Det & few drops of VEGETABLE OIL with water. Spray the plants & that works as well. I prefer the latter solution. I did use Neem Oil at 1 point & it truly does smother out the aphids & was also instructed maybe a 2nd application because someone, told online, that Aphids are born pregnant! 😱 And I heard "Sher" She Grows, tell that as long as you have potted plants inside your home you WILL have Aphids!. Sher recently set up a hydroponic tower & as far as I know, now since she will NOT allow DIRT to come into her house AT ALL even with flowers!, that she has NO BUGS! I find it hard to get rid of my huge potted Peace Lily, Thanksgiving Cactus, & and my Anthuriums! 😢 The Anthurium, when loaded with bright Red Blooms with Bright Yellow Pistils extending from the center of each bloom is so beautiful to look at! 🥰
