Journal Entry 11/13/2024: On Nonmember 07th the scallions grew to the pictured height above. I have since moved them to a larger hydroponic system, which my husband got me for our 45th anniversary. This system also contained five cherry tomatoes plants, as well as two Angel Begonias cutting that are rooting well.
Below is how these plants look today, after being divided into the difference systems for better growth.
I also seeded some more mini sweet peppers yesterday, because the one I seeded over the weekend by following the recommended directions of soaking the seeds for six to eight hours, and then dropping them into the white pots filled with round ceramsite (a fire clay growth medium) that only helps keep the plants stable without increasing the PH level of the nutrients in the water.
Since I love them so much, I am going to try my hand at growing baby eggplants in one of the smaller hydroponic system. Yeah, this is addicting. With the larger system, I will plant some lettuce and strawberries.
However, because the the sweet pepper seeds in the larger have not sprouted I will seed some lettuce and strawberries seeds, but like the tomatoes and onions I will seed them in the smaller systems, and move them to the larger system when they sprout their true leaves.
I do not know why the sweet pepper seeds have not sprouted in the larger system. Perhaps, they are too old or they were drowned. I keep an watchful eye out for them.
