Day 42 – March 28, 2012

Our peppers growing pretty rapidly. 

Sturdy plants growing taller

 Our plants are still growing.  Our pH was pretty high today (basic) and so we added some pH down solution.  We decided to add some water to our system before leaving it for the weekend.  Our water level has been easily managed because of how deep our system is.

As you can see by looking at the picture to the left, two of our plants are growing obviously faster than the other two.  We have yet to figure out why, but are still experimenting with our tubing.  I the water from the tube was pouring more directly into the two smaller plants, while “leaking” into the two larger plants.  So, I backed the rate of water flowing directly into the plants down.
