Four of the jalapeno plants are growing very well. One in particular has grown tremendously and has surpassed all of the other plants. The other four jalapeno plants would not grow. We replaced these seeds with basil seeds. Some of the basil plants are just starting to pop up. We have also had trouble with algae growing in our system so we have been continuously cleaning the system out.

PH
The ph has been surprising easy to check and maintain. We added about a cup of water after spring break and since then it has stayed pretty much the same. We do feel like the solution consentration change will affect the ph but we have yet to see that.
50/50
Half of our cups have produced jalapeno plants. The other four cups we put the rest of our jalepeno seeds in to see how they do.
Growth has begun!
These photos were taken two weeks after planting the germinated seeds. Two of the eight cups had plants. One had algae, we did nothing to prevent algae. At this point we decided to give more time for the other seeds and to see how the algae problem would progress.
