Big Hydro Update
OK. 12 days since my last update and everything is progressing nicely. I started some radishes, lettuce, squash, and tomatoes around 12 March. Everything except the tomatoes have grown enough that I have put them in the system. See Pictures
The red stemmed plants here are radishes. Also growing is chives (look close) and salad bowl lettuce. The lettuce is acting a little wilty… maybe it is getting too much water?
This is the best of my three squashes. You can see the rockwool cube I started it in. It is really leaning toward the window, but I don’t think that will be too much of a problem.
This last picture shows the whole system. There are two squash plants on the window side and one one the other. The real leggy viney looking plants on the non-window side nearest the camera are (I presume) morning glory (which will get killed if/when it starts grabbing anything). You can also see the basil on the window side is doing really well.

Note: I recently switched hosting companies - and the transfer lost a few pictures. Hopefully I still have them… will repost shortly if I do.
