Hi Dave,
Enjoyed your video and really like your setup. You put a lot of thought and work into it.
I never heard of using vinegar with the hydroton. I used to boil mine when I had a Kratky system. Do you find it difficult to flush out the vinegar?
Also, like how you set up your rails/system. Makes it so easy to clean everything when needed. I have a small setup in my cellar that I just started a few months ago. I built my rails after this guy's model (
https://simplegreenshydroponic...), but it makes cleaning a PITA. It's a combination of NFT and DWC systems. Did you design all this yourself?
I've thought of converting my greenhouse to hydroponics, but one thing that keeps me from doing it (in addition to taking on a new project) is space considerations. e.g. I grow my peppers in 2 gallon pots with a potting soil I make myself. If I had to convert each plant to 5 gallon buckets, it seems I could only plant one where I can plant two or three now.
What made you go with a hydroponic greenhouse as opposed to a more traditional greenhouse.
Looking forward to your weekly updates.
Jim
