Becaue of your videos I tried a little Kratky grow and it worked like a charm, now I'm working on a living herb and spices rack in the kitchen. Thank you very much for the inspiration and your chill and layed back videos!
Good playful enjoyment sure seems to be a great part of your gardening experiences Khang! Good tip concerning the presence of lemon grass as a possible pest preventative companion. Here last season grasshoppers were being a pain. I comingle marigolds in among my plants anyways. Surprisingly the hoppers devoured the marigolds, leaving only stems and veins, no foliage, no flowers, no seed pods, nothing. -Bob...
The purple apple leaves are likely inherited from crabapple genetics. They often have reddish / purple leaves, and are commonly used as orchard pollinators. They may also have bright pink flowers eventually, and the apples may have red flesh and the size and color and taste could be anywhere from a cosmic crisp to a crabapple. Good fun! And if you don't love the apples they eventually make you can use your trees as good rootstock. :-)
Great knowledge and I love the fact you mention if the apples suck then you can use the bottom as root stock and can graft another plant on it, EXCELLENT idea!!!
Yes me too!!! No matter if I do mine Kratky or DWC within 6 months or less I always seem to start getting brown roots and try to fight it with peroxide and water and every time it always end in root rot and then I compost them.
I have been growing a Petite Negri fig in my Dutch Bucket hydroponic system for 5 years. Produces lots of delicious figs. I bring it into covered space in the fall. I wonder about an apple, could it be kept under control to keep it small.
I have been fighting the battle of aggressively growing apple trees in my yard. I have taken to summer pruning which is helping me get control of the growth. Using dwarf root stock and summer pruning should keep a dwarf apple under control. Should be an interesting experiment.
Apple seeds do not inherit their parents' phenotypes. They can express a range of characteristics, for the same reason when people make babies they aren't clones.
Khang, you can NOT grow an apple tree from seed. Apple trees are grafted onto strong crab-apple root stock. If you plant the seeds, you get the crab-apple tree.
@@Arnd2it that’s the point you can’t create new varieties from rootstock so how does the new varieties exist if according to you we can’t grow from seed

Glad to see you're still at it with the hydroponics!
Thanks brother

Always love the videos!
Wow thanks for sharing this is very interesting
Love this dude made me start my own journey ha
He is one of the BEST in both the hydroponic and pepper community ♥️♥️♥️
I suspect the apple was a hybrid and the plants from its seeds are originator varieties, that might explain why one is green and the other red?

Hello Khang! Thanks for your videos! I would love to watch you making a project strawberry Kratky method please.
Yes me too!!! No matter if I do mine Kratky or DWC within 6 months or less I always seem to start getting brown roots and try to fight it with peroxide and water and every time it always end in root rot and then I compost them.
Think this will work with a yerba mate plant?

yea, but even specifically you can buy dwarf that will stay even smaller still.

I Wonder if Khang has ever grown a Kaffir lime tree,
and if so could it be done in hydroponics ?
I have grown a lemon tree this way. It got too big for hydro and I had to get it out and place in the ground. Our snowgeddon of 2020 killed it.
❤ it! I am trying to grow from seeds, but it is not working. Do you grow your seedlings first?

hi khang ... isn't bad that there is algee on the top of the rockwhool ?? ... it doesn't affect the plant in anyway ??
I get algae on mine. It doesn't seem to hurt the plant.
is fast way to get an apple sooner im doing this also for apples
Your plants look real good and healthy. What are pH, EC and TDS of hydroponic solution for peppers ?
I don't know, I never check pH, EC or TDS =).
ok. now grow Pistachio
a male and a female pistachio treez ✌
how many watts is your light?
10 hrs per day.
Aerogarden lights are all 25 usually depending on if you get the smaller system it’s 10 and the bigger one is 35 or 40 I believe.

no
Or find a new variety that’s desirable. But highly unlikely but possible
Not true at all it just won’t be an exact replica of the apple you got the seeds from. People don’t Create new apple varieties from nothing.
@@ewok7075 Yes true. Try it, you won't like the end result. And you do NOT create new varieties by grafting root stock. Look it up.
@@Arnd2it that’s the point you can’t create new varieties from rootstock so how does the new varieties exist if according to you we can’t grow from seed
Hook it up with some seeds bro. I need one of each strain u have 😊
