Hydroponic Economics has a good, simple post with tips for troubleshooting your drip system.

I love The Cheap Vegetable Gardener! He seriously goes the distance with his product reviews! Take this waterproof powerstrip by Wet Circuits, for instance- CVG documented his test for everyone to see. And, good news, it works! This is a brilliant tool for any indoor grower. Not that I needed one more thing to add [...]

Powdery mildew (PM) is one of the most disturbing problems in any garden. First of all, it’s just disgusting- the smell and the nasty texture are just awful. But even worse is the damage it does to crops. Once infected with mildew, your plants are weakened and any crops contaminated should not be consumed. Indoor [...]

This project, featured on Treehugger.com is one of the best home greenhouses I’ve ever seen. The ambitious garden was built by Jim Dunn and is totally tricked out with features. The dome is all about providing a stable growing climate. To achieve this, the location was carefully chosen to maximize exposure to the sun, and [...]

The Urban Hydroponic Growers Union is one of my favorite websites. All kinds of amazing growers post about their home gardens, including some names that should be familiar to readers of the Grow GH blog: Red-Icculus and ChuckieD! I am totally impressed with this simple AeroFlow hack- they call it the Super Cropper. So clever!

You know you are dedicated hydroponic grower when your entire trunk is full of perlite! I managed to get a 20lb bag of Nor Cal brand horticultural perlite and 40 coco baskets in my tiny hatchback. Ebb and Flow for life!

I have a fond place in my heart for the infamous red berry.  Planted on April 1st,  these Sequoia strawberries are supposed to be June-bearing.  With our timing we weren’t sure if we’d get berries or not, however we have gotten quite lucky and they have returned from their dormancy with a beautiful 1st round [...]

The greenhouse right now is filled with flowers. Remember the fruit trees that are waiting for transplanting? Many of them are currently in full bloom. I took some really crazy closeup shots, and it just blows my mind how each flower is so different from the next, yet so the same.

The greenhouse team has been busy at work potting up an entire orchard worth of fruit trees. These trees will eventually be transplanted into the General Hydroponics Farm Lab orchard, but for now they are cozy and warm indoors.

It’s really cold here in NorCal, and so I like to sneak over to the greehouse to soak up the warmth. Besides the decent temperature, there is the warming effect of looking at the rainbow of peppers growing in the ebb and flow trays. They look great, and are the perfect reminder of the real [...]

Here’s an old-school article, from the Hydro Farm website, written in 1998, by Gordon Creaser for the Aquaponics Journal. It talks about a Hawaiian family getting set up with a large scale lettuce operation. Does anyone out there know if they are still growing?

Today the forklift was called into action, with it’s massive lift. The upper vents of the greenhouse came off of their tracks, and this is way better than a ladder, right?

Remember the new setups we’ve been testing?
I took this shot on August 11:

They have exploded in the last month. Amazing.

This banana flower is so cool. Bananas are tropicals, obivously, and this one is thriving in the hot greenhouse.

The zinnias in the greenhouse are still blooming, and they are so beautiful. The longer they grow, the more the petals stack up on each blossom. Generally, flowers bloom full size, but the zinnia flower continues to grow larger and larger on the plant.
