Hydroponics & Organics in Cebu: December 2011

It's been a while since my previous post, have been really really busy due to school work and reconstruction of the hydroponic garden. The whole entire garden perished several weeks ago due to the unstable weather here in Cebu, harsh rains with sudden painful hot days have left my plants no time to adjust to the environment which caused them to go through major leaf drop and die. :'( NOOOOOO!

Anyhow... since my operations have decreased in pace, i have added other products to the catalog.

HYDROPONIC NUTRIENT SOLUTION: Php350 per set

This is the Hydroponic Nutrient Solution used for NON-CIRCULATING SYSTEMS. This means, that you DO NOT NEED A WATER PUMP OR AN AERATOR in your system. It operates on a passive aeration process which the plants themselves do, thus saving electricity! :)

If you prefer to use a CIRCULATING SYSTEM, this set can also be used, though the results will not differ as to using it without any machinery.

A set costs PHP 350. It includes 2 bottles, Labelled "HYDRO A" and "HYDRO B".

Instructions:
(1) Mix 25ml of "Hydro A" to 12 Liters of water. (this can be tap water or deep well) Mix thoroughly.
(2) Mix 25ml of "Hydro B" to the mixture from step (1). Mix thoroughly.
(3) Pour into your hydroponic system, enough to submerge the roots of the plants in the water. If your plants don't have any roots yet, pour enough mix to submerge the bottom 1/4 of the plant cup.
(4) refill system with solution when water levels are low or have dried up from absorption or evaporation.

SEEDS: Corelle Lettuce (curly leaf), Romaine Lettuce, Cilantro/Corriander, Purple Basil, Arugula

Seeds are php50 per pack. I assure you that the germination rates are high. Most of the seeds came from my own plant flowers and i have tried them myself. :)
