Getting ready for our first harvest!

On Wednesday we checked out our system and plants.  Everything is still going well except for the radish, unfortunately we haven’t been able to come up with a solution.  The radish plant did sprout its leaves through the top of the rockwool but the radish did not come through the bottom.  I’m am not sure but maybe the seed needed to be placed deeper into the rockwool when we first planted it.  The lettuce on the other hand is growing so well, that on Monday we are planning to cut off some of the longer pieces.  We will make the cuts about two inches above the rockwool, this way will should be able to get at least one more harvest.  It is possible to get three harvests out of each plant and it seems like our plants are healthy, so hopefully we will get a couple more.
