Hottest city on earth today, Tomatoes don't seem to mind.
luckily there's no shortage of water in the aquaponics system, fueled by Tandanus catfish and silver perch!

tried a vertical method this year with outstanding results.
We have produced 10s of KGs of fruit over the last 3 months.

Hey strangers,

yea we're still here, been a while.
just wanted to show off Autopots Cap plus capillary tray.
everything is pumping under a 300w LED.
Found the tomato hiding hanging down the back, absolutely huge and untamed, with a tiny root mass, didn't matter when it was sitting on the cap plus tray!

The chilli has been happy on the table for a full year now, never stops fruiting !

Yes. In veg, many growers now use Flowering Enhancer to prevent purple stems and petioles, to avoid calcium, magnesium and iron deficiencies. In bloom, Flowering Enhancer integrates very well into other ranges along with Resin-XS as the stand-alone PK additives. This combination prevents the need for a cal-mag additive, provides pH stability and prevents the need for messy resin enhancers, carbohydrates as well as finishing agents.

look at the crazy root development from young juvenile plants,
I'm testing to see whether we can continually reuse the eazy blocks.
