This is a great video, I learnt a lot. Question, how do you get rid of the algae when you have the seeds growing in the sponge?
Hi Dante, I hope you're doing well. Thankyou and sorry for the late reply.
For your question.
1. When sunlight hit the water/wet sponge, algae will be present. To totally get rid of it, you have to block that sunlight hitting the sponge. Having a little bit of algae is fine :)
Hope I answered your question.
Wow! Very informative! Thank you for sharing👍 question, i started hydrophonics using kratky. I germinated my seeds in a soil less medium peat moss (is that the same as coco coir?) and waited for the true leaves to come out . After, I directly transplanted them to the hydrophonics box with all the prepared nutrients . Exposure to the sun is gradual 30 mins and slowly increasing. I cover it with black box during no sun exposure. Though I see growth some are slower like you said. Am I on the right direction handling my hydrophonics pechay?
Hi Carlos, Thankyou and sorry for the late reply. Peat moss and coco peat is not the same but both have good water retention. No need to cover them with a blackbox. :)
Vlogger na vlogger na dating ah! Nice job hehehe
Hi BJL. Thankyou and sorry for the late reply. I hope you're doing well. ^^
Ngayon lng tlga ako nagreply sa lahat XD
@@rasubackyardfarming6205 I hope you’re doing well din hahaha!
Thanks a lot. Best tutorial I have ever seen 👏. However I have a couple of questions. 1. If EC is not in the desired range what should be done (add more nutrients or water to take it up or down?) 2. How to minimize growth of algae ( would placing the sponge with seedlings in net cups and covering the top with clay pellets help with bottom watering in a tray or directly running it in my hydrophobic set up which will also provide better oxygenation?!). Thanks. Ramesh from India
Hi Ramesh I hope you're doing well. Thankyou and sorry for the late reply. With regards to your questions..
1. If EC is less than the desired range, you can add more nutrients. If you accidentally put a lot of nutsol (nutrient solution), you may introduce additional water to dilute it.
2. Algae form when sunlight hit the water. If you can avoid or at least minimize it, then it would result to lesser agae build-up.
Hi, great video - what happened to the second video of you transferring the cubes from this video into the hydroponics?
Hi Doug, how are you? Sorry for the late reply. A lot of things happed, I'll do my best to catch-up. Thankyou.
Waiting for your video, grow box
Hi Subrata. I hope you're doing well. A lot of things happened after I posted this video. I'll catch-up to you soon after the rainy season. THANKYOU.
thank you
Thankyou for watching iyi.
Thank for the information. Can I skip the coco coir step, in day 2 directly transfer to sponge. In Day 7, give some nutrients to the plants ?
Hi Kei, I hope you're doing well. Thankyou and sorry for the late reply. With regards to your question.
1. Yes. That would actually be better if you're using horticultural foam the one with holes in the middle.
For the DIY foam in the video, I find it easier to make a slit than a hole.
Putting a day 2 seed in the slit does not work based on my one time experience. The growth is blocked by the foam.
If you can make a hole like the one in the horticultural foam, It would be perfect.
Amazing video! Can you place the seeds straight after the germination to the sponge cubes ?
Thankyou. I tried before and it doesn't work well.
An easier method is to grow the seedlings on the coco coir up until they are ready for transplant. They will have bigger roots and shall be easier to transplant.
The introduction and maintenance of nutrient readings shall be the same process shown in the video up until they're ready for harvest.
3 days before harvest, we can also do "flushing", it is when we feed the lettuce with plain water without adding additional nutrients. This method will flush the nutrient solution in the plant's system which shock the plant and boost its growth, also minimizing the taste of bitternes in some bitter varieties.
@@rasubackyardfarming6205 amazing... Great information. Greetings from Australia and God bless you 🙏🙏
@@nikosraptis1985 You're welcome. God bless you too.
Very in depth. Have you ever gone directly from tissue to sponge?
Hi Téa! Thankyou for you comment.
I have tried it once. I put the seed in the sponge's slit. But the seed had a hard time emerging as it grows. Maybe I placed it too deep or it dropped lower when I watered it.
I think there won't be any problem if I used horticultural foam or rockwool since with those, there is designated slot for the seed.
@@rasubackyardfarming6205 I have hit/miss with rockwool and lettuce. When it works, it works great. But the holes are pretty deep at 1/2" which if the seeds aren't really fresh, seem to struggle with.
@@teac117 the pelletized seeds might be better since it won't go all the way down.
From Day 2 onwards, do we have to spray the plain water everyday? Once or twice a day? Second question.. after feeding the seedling into the foam alongwith water (after mixing the nutrients liquid), do we have to cover the box ??
No need to spray water but you can do that to reduce the temperature if it's too hot.
No need to cover the box
Shouldn't you mix part A in before part B ? Just curious.
Great video sir! Where did you buy your Ph meter?
Hi Aeus. Thankyou and sorry for the late reply. I bought it online. I believe it came from china ^^
Do you use the coco again after you rinse it off the plants and dry it out?
You can do that but make sure to sterilize it first before using it again. For me I just thow them in my compost bin.
Please make a video on how to make your own nutrient solution
Hi Promtim. I hope you're doing well. A lot of things happened after I posted this video. I'll catch-up to you soon after the rainy season. THANKYOU.
1) Can skip the step of using coco coir? On day 2 directly transfer to sponge?
2) For DWC, after how many days can the babies be transferred to net cups and placed on floating raft?
Hi Lawrence, how are you? Thankyou and sorry for the late reply. With regards to your question.
1. Yes. That would actually be better if you're using horticultural foam the one with holes in the middle.
For the DIY foam in the video, I find it easier to make a slit than a hole.
Putting a day 2 seed in the slit does not work based on my one time experience. The growth is blocked by the foam.
If you can make a hole like the one in the horticultural foam, It would be perfect.
2. 2weeks or when the true leave came out.
Where can I watch the Part 2 - Growbox and transplanting?
Hi Lawrence. A lot of things happened after I posted this video. I'll catch-up soon with a new system and better videos.
You can use lemon juice to bring down the pH
Hi Katie. Thankyou and sorry for the late reply.
Though lemon juice can bring the pH down, It does not hold the pH down for a long period of time.
Waiting for video
Hi Justin. I hope you're doing well. A lot of things happened after I posted this video. I'll catch-up to you soon after the rainy season. THANKYOU.
san nyo po nabili ung Ph and EC meter nyo? and HM po, if you don't mind me asking.. thanks po. thanks din for sharing this.. this is one of the most comprehensive yet very short video on how to germinate seeds.. maraming salamat po.
Hi Russel. I hope you're doing well. Thankyou and sorry for the very late reply. Sa shopee ko po nabili. Around 2500 pesos. :)
Sir, can we apply the same principle to all other leafy vege?
Regards
Hi Chip. How are you? Thankyou and sorry for the late reply. To answer your question, Yes, we can apply the same principle to all leafy vege. Just take note of the optimal EC and pH of the specific vege being grown.
Where are you now?please update new video
Hi Namo. I hope you're doing well. A lot of things happened after I posted this video. I'll catch-up to you soon after the rainy season. THANKYOU.
gsir? Yung gagamitin po bang water okey lng pag tapwater? or needed po ba na mineral water?
Hi floriel. Thankyou and sorry for the late reply. Pinakamaganda po tlga na gamitin na tubig ay yung mababa ang reading ng EC kagaya po ng tubig ulan. Ang mineral water po at tap water ay halos parehas lang. Basta po siguraduhin na wala itong halong chlorine.
Kung meron man itong chlorine ay madali lng po itong alisin. Pagka-imbak ng tubig ay pasingawin lamang ito ng ilang araw..
My seeds didn't sprout, is this because I didn't kept them for 24 hours in the dark area?
Hi Zoltar, sorry for the late reply.
One is the quality of seeds you have. Seeds that are too old lower it's germination rate.
And yes, most seeds germinate best under dark conditions.
you never use artificial light ?
Where u buy your ph/ec/ppm reader sir?
Hi Kirk, I hope you're doing well. Thankyou and sorry for the late reply. I bought my meter online, I believe it came from China if I'm not mistaken. ^^
saan ka pala nakabili ng foam na ginamit mo?
Hi Tifanny. Thankyou and sorry for the late reply. Nakabili ako ng foam sa mga tindahan ng uratex. ^^
Sir pag hydroponics ba required po may greenhouse?
Hi! Thankyou and sorry for the late reply.
Hindi nmn po required ang greenhouse, kung may lugar po kayo na nasisikatan ng araw pero hindi nababasa ng ulan okay na po iyon. Ang isa po sa kagandahan ng pagkakaroon ng shadehouse ay maiiwasan or malilimitahan ang pag pasok ng mga hayop or insekto na maaaring makasira sa mga tanim.
Is that real ? in day 2 can get that size of root?
Hi Zack. I hope you're doing well. Thankyou and sorry for the late reply. A lot of things are needed to be considered to get the best results like the quality of seeds and proper temperature ^^
That was my 9months old comment,Now I believe that ,I was growing angled gourd in hydroponics and. now I know how fast root are grow in liquid.
@@Zack-vt2ky Yup 9 months is a very long time. I'm happy that you're still into this. I hit the bottom and now I'm trying to start again. I Wish us all the best.
Nakabilad pa rin po ba sa araw start day 8? Salamat po pag nanotice nyo ako
Hi Jessie, thankyou and sorry for the late reply.
Opo. Mainam din po na obserbahan mabuti ang mga punla. Kung sila ay nalalanta, maaaring sobra ang init at mabuti na ikanlong muna sila o kaya ay lagyan ng shade net upang hindi lubos na mainitan.
hello san po makabili ng seedlings? from cebu po ako.
Hi Crisanto. Salamat at pasensya na sa matagal kong pag tugon. Sa shopee lng po ako bumibili ng seedlings. Check nyo po mabuti ang mga reviews, expiry date, at kung lowland variety ba ito or highland variety.
Saan nyo po nabili ang foam
Hi GSystema. Thankyou and sorry for the late reply.
Sa mga bilihan lng po ng uratex ako bumibili ng foam.
Ilang araw po bago ilagay sa araw?
Hi. Day 5 po from seed pwede na ilagay sa araw.. patagal po ng patagal bawat araw
Sir can I have your # pls? I am a senior citizen and I want hydroponics as libangan. Hindi naging maganda ang seedlings. Ang dami kong tanong. Thank you sir.
Where can I get these lettuce seeds can you please the link of seller address
Hello. I just ordered them Online. You can search on Lazada or Shopee App.
Sir ano pong magandang brand na gamitin para sa Ph?
Hi Rosita. Thankyou for your comment.
Dalawang klase pa lng po ng pH meter yung nagagamit ko.. yun pong una ay yung kulay yellow na may manual calibration, hindi po advisable na gamitin yun kasi madalas po ay mali ang reading kahit icalibrate. Yung gamit ko po ngayon ay mas maganda, automatic calibration na sya. Nabili ko lng po sa shopee ang brand po ay RCYAGO
Salamat po sa pagsagot
Sir pwede po ba ipakita niyo iyong exact na detalye, baka magkamali po ako sa pag order, hindi ko po alam kasi iyong pipiliin ko. Kung pwede po sana immessage niyo po ako sa messenger.. Salamat ulit sa pagsagot..
Sige po. Nag message na po ako sa inyo sa msgr.
Too much hassle transferring the seeds/seedlings back and forth. can't imagine doing this over and over again.
Hi DM Thankyou for your comment. I appreciate it.
Yes! This process is too much of a hassle. Using horticultural foam or rockwool though quite expensive would be the best. ^^
Annoying music
Hi Luis. I know 😆 I usually mute this video when I'm re-watching it.
It's very useful information. I waiting the next level transplant process. You told no need ths pumb ? Can you give me your number I have some questions of my hydroponic
I hope you're doing well. A lot of things happened after I posted this video. I'll catch-up to you soon after the rainy season. THANKYOU.
