This is my second grow using a vertical aeroponic grow tower. I am still learning and hope to use the lessons learned from my first grow and appreciate tips and comments to help me along.
I used the paper towel method to germinate the seeds and all 8 seeds popped. After about 3 days in the dark, tap roots growing, I placed them in rockwool and covered them with vermiculite. I am keeping the rockwool damp by spraying them using filtered water from the refrigerator I allowed to come to room temperature. I am using a General Electric BR30 Grow Light With Balanced Spectrum Seeds & Greens LED Light Bulb, balanced light spectrum for seeds and greens, high output PPF: 16 micromoles per second (I don't really know what all that means, so....) I am not sure how good the light is but I am only using it during the seedling stage and to give them a guaranteed 18 hours of light. After they get a little bigger, I will put them outside in the tower in the greenhouse.
Interested to see where this goes. The tangerine dream I know can get huge and I'd like to see how it responds to different grow methods. Good luck on your grow👍
@indoorontario, the tangerine didn't get very big for my first grow in the tower. However, they did produced some very good buds, despite their size. So we'll see how this grow goes. Thanks! 😃🤞
