That was a excellent video. I'm the one that commented on one of your last video about covering your container. You hit all base's this time. Excellent for the beginners. Lookin forward for next video. One thing you didn't mention is that some do the wicky kraky method with the wick in the water to the net cup. Wich doesn't matter to me.

I have young herbs (basil, chives, chamomile, lemongrass) that I bought last week and planted in too small of a container w/little drainage. I'd like to convert them into hydroponics. In this case I wouldn't need the rock wool and just carefully clean the roots and shove them into the net pot. is that right? Thanks.

Great video! I'm hooked. :) I love the idea of not wrapping the jars. It seems to me, a newbie at hydroponics, that if you are doing short time plants like lettuce and such, (20-40 days, you don't need the wrapping. Now I'm off to check out your other videos. Thanks.

Pretty sure you'd be better off using opaque jars because I think light on the roots can have a negative impact on growth. Maybe you could try painting or duct taping half of the jars to see how they compare.

Hello thank you for your information, new sub her. you answered all my questions except 2, when should I add more water to the mason jar? And when I do should I add plain water or water with nutrients?

Hi super new to hydroponics, 2: 40 you add a hydroponic nutrient solution, do you make your own or buy it? and if you have ever made your own and it worked what is your mixture? Great video!

Nice vdo. I would like to know about the pH and EC of the water with nutrients. What nutrients do you use. Can you tell in detail about the grow lights and if a humidifier is necessary?

Is there a reason commercial farmers dont use the kratky method all the way through growing? Just seems super simple and efficient vs using pumps etc. surely theres a reason!

Nice job! Do you have a video that explains your lighting systems? I would like to try these different methods of growing but I'm kinda concerned about the electric bill.

Isn't that too much trouble? I heard you can just put the stem into a cup of water and in 2 weeks you'll get roots. You don't need all that jar/rocks/etc.

If i put this on a large container then just float the plants on styrofoam and then put the whole thing next to a window. Will that work? And algea?
