Thank you!! Your information is going to help me so much! I have the Lettuce grow and I've been struggling with growing from seeds lately. Much appreciated!
You are welcome. If you have any problems let me know. If the seeds won't start to grow, I would try new seeds. If you need more assistance, join my Facebook growing group and ask questions.
Two questions, one how do you keep the media from drying out whenever it's in the nursery for a week or longer? I have an issue with trying to keep the media either two moist or dried out but I haven't been using these type of cubes Two whenever you move it to the let pot do you provide nutrients in the solution or is it just water?
This media is very hard to over water. This media also allows a lot of oxygen. So I water or mist the nursery 1 time per day. The LetPot has nutrients of 1-1.4 EC
Question for you, I've been reading that you can put these grow mediums directly into the farm stand, add some seeds and skip the whole migration from one thing to another. Have you had any experience or maybe can shed some advice on that?
That is possible. I do not prefer to do it that way. I normally run around a 1.4 EC in my systems. New plants prefer around .3 EC. So it is possible you will burn or stun your new plants. Now if you are planting the entire system new then direct seeds will be fine. Just dont over water seeds. But also make sure they media is staying damp.
I really do not understand the question. This Oasis is to small for those cups. That is why I use the Aerogarden cups inside. Oasis does sell a larger media but I have not tried it.
What are your thoughts on the aero garden vs the letpot? The aero garden has a 21 pod garden almost $100 cheaper than the letpot. Thanks for posting this video. Awesome stuff
The only Aerogarden system I have is the 360 and I do not care for it. Which Aerogarden are you talking about? Aerogarden does not make anything that holds 21 with using the cups which makes it easy to move them to a different system.
@@KeithRanly their seed starting trays hold 21/23....I was wondering if the white baskets would fit in those holes..I suspect they too small to go all the way in but would imagine even sticking up a little it should work...they have these sponges that would then get transfered to the baskets and then go into lettuce grow or gardyn...was thinking start them already in the baskets to make transferring easier....thoughts?
Yes, you can plant seeds into the Nook. You will need to wait 5+ weeks to harvest. If you start them before putting them into your Nook, it will speed up the process.
Keith got options! Nice video for comparing costs and methods of seed starting for different setups, you did a great job showing your garden ideas.
This is awesome. I had all of the parts but didnt think of putting them together. Thanks!
Thanks Keith. That’s a really informative video😊

What lettuce seeds do you like to buy. Link to the Etsy adaptors??
The links are in the video description for the adaptor and seeds.
Can you use this in the iHarvest cups directly?
I guess you could but I would not do it. They are to small and will let light into the system and cause algae.
Was wondering how/ when you package lettuce for sale?
Here is the bag I use. I just cut off the outside leaves.

Can I just put the oasis in my lettuce grow medium? How do i use it that way?

@@rg8729 You are going to have to attach a link. I really have no idea what item you are referring to.
That was my question...will the cups/baskets fit in those holes and be effective..I realize the may not sit flush all the way down...but should work
It's removing the link from the comments I think
Where did you get your nursery?

So you grow them in a Letpot and then transfer to a Nook? Can I not just put seeds in medium directly into the Nook?
Yes, you can plant seeds into the Nook. You will need to wait 5+ weeks to harvest. If you start them before putting them into your Nook, it will speed up the process.
I leave mine in the Letpot for 3+ weeks, so when I remove my old plants. My new plants that I put in the Nook will grow and produce faster.
I think I got it!
So the Oasis will fit in Aerogarden basket (I can use system I already have)
Is that correct?
@@BecomingMoreSelfSufficient That is correct
