I inherited ebb and flow gear from an ocra grow room that shut down. I never tried it myself after learning that hydroponics is a way of life. If the water chemistry goes awry everything dies fast.
I didn't do the zucchini last year and only got 2 fruits
Things in pots dry out here so fast, usually too hot by this time of year, some veggies will not fruit above certain temps. Heckfire squirrels like to ruin everything too. Or any other kind of rodent. Thankful the possums have been keeping tabs on things this year.
Yes, the cucumbers in my pictures earlier are similar to the English cucumbers in the store. I have been looking for years and this is the first time that I am actually getting what I wanted. I picked 1 today, it was small and I only picked it because it was touching the dirt in the container. Took, it in the house, washed it (all the fine spines washed off) and showed it to the wife... cut it in half and ate my half right then..... She says she loves them. I have been buying 1 or 2 every week it will take about 3 weeks before I break even. Funny, she likes them so she told me to order more, they were all sold out...
