Almost there, hydroponically speaking...

I just received the foam sprouting/growing cubes along with a germinating tray. Also coming with those were the ever elusive PH strips.

The first picture shows the germinating tray, foam cubes, planting cup, and the PH strips.

This is a close-up showing a foam cube with a toothpick through the X cut where the seed goes in and the roots go out. The grow cup with a foam cube in it and the PH strips for checking the PH of the nutrient solution.

With the rainy season here the only thing I need now is a structure for a plastic sheet roof to keep the rain water out of the nutrient solution. It would dilute it and upset the balance.
