Pool noodles turn to dust when left in the sun. Just wondering how far they break down and if the chemical constituents end up in solution. I think I'd like to see some sort of chemical analysis of the crops just to make sure that there are no nasty radicals present. Otherwise I'm excited by this technique and it's economy.

As far as I know most pool noodles are made from EVA not PVC since kids will be playing with them. EVA is used in baby teething rings and medical supplies. They last pretty much an entire grow season and are cheap enough to replace often. In addition, the whole downspout is PVC and comes in direct contact with the water, probably more of a concern than the pool noodle that does not. There are always food grade NFT channels.

Mike, thank you. I wish I could show you the photos of the work I did today. I have the same colour noodle.. looks great with the plants. I transplanted sunflowers that I left too long sprouting the seeds (from last Sunday) some of them were about 10cm tall. I used the noodle and cut the top part of soft drink bottles and inverted them to hold the noodle bit. Let the roots dangle in the nutrient water mix. Left about 2 cms between water and base if stems. I’m in Cairns, far North Queensland living in a unit. My balcony faces north east so I get morning sun until about 11am. Being in the tropics, the sun is quite hot. I’ve successfully been gowing a herb garden since December .. parsley, basil, mint, shallots, spinach vine.

Love the inclusion of animals, both your editor/canine family member and others. Thank you very much for the introduction and references to Dr. Kratky dakineapproaches hydroponic method. My space to grow is very limited and I want to make this work without buying saws & drills. Rather than getting seeds, I plan to start this using live herb plants such as mint, thyme, oregano, basil. Do you suggest washing roots when removed from soil? To grow each patch of herbs (not aiming to maintain them as individual plants), could planter pots with drainage grids and saucers be used? Could black shelf liner be used to support root growth? Could Keurig "K" plastic coffee brewing cups, each which have a paper filter inside if really careful removing used grounds, with bottoms somehow cut be up-cycled&used instead of net pots? If I can't find pool noodles, other alternative suggestions?

Hi Mike, Great videos. I am just starting with hydroponics. Quick question for you. When you take a new seedling and surround it with the pool noodle, you use the cut out piece to hold it in the middle, does it not suffocate and restrict the growth of the seedling as it grows into the plant. Or it is strong enough to push itself through the surrounding pool noodle?

@KeepOnGrowin

6 жыл бұрын

I usually grow leafy greens such as chards, kale, pak choy, lettuce, etc. they all seem to do fine. If you look back a few videos, I transplanted some lettuce from a nursery, did not even need the small piece to hold them in place. If you do not leave a small space for a microgreen, yes you can squash it. The leaves can keep it from slipping thru the hole while the roots dangle in the nutrient solution.

This is by far the easiest hydroponics setup I´ve ever seen, pool noodles making so much sense now.
