6th and Final Summer Harvest

Howdy🙋🏼

5th Summer Harvest

Hello🙋🏼

Kind of a late post but I harvested Tuesday and Wednesday of last week💚

I was able to send about 12 lbs of basil to Blair-Shannon!!!!

Pesto, purple, and fine verde basil...oh my

Wowzers.....that’s a bunch of basil!!!

As you can see the plants are growing very good...well...except the cilantro

With the rising temp in the grow room the cilantro started to bolt. 

With no way to control the temp or humidity in the grow room these kind of things happen😞

Even with hydroponic growing if you can’t control these things you’re limited on what you can grow and I highly recommend being able to control these very important aspects if you’re thinking about investing in this system.
