Greenhouse Habanero Peppers love Earth & Grow!
We love hearing success stories like these coming from our Earth & Grow supporters aka 'Plant Protectors' :)
So check this out. Being a bit skeptical, a sales rep wanted to see E&G results for himself. How could he promote Earth & Grow with any conviction otherwise, right? Well, we're proud that we could transform his ideas of indoor gardening... and yours! Have a look at the Habanero Peppers he raised in his greenhouse using Grodan and net baskets.
Earth & Grow Trial with Habanero Peppers
Date started: Habanero plants transplanted on 6/18/13
Date ended: Fruit harvested on 9/1/13
Method:
Habanero plants bought at garden center. Soil washed off the plants and all transplanted in Grodan growcubes in 6” net baskets. 6 were hooked up to the Earth & Grow on one 2x4 flood table; the other 6 on a separate 2x4 table without the E&G. All in greenhouse; no artificial light.
Transplants started at pH 6 and EC of 1.0 with Flora Gro and Flora Micro. Gradually increased to EC 2.0 and switched to Flora Bloom and Flora Micro. Last two weeks before harvest, increased to EC 2.5 with Flora Bloom, Flora Micro and CaliMagic.
Fruit harvest, counted and weighed on 9/1/13.
