Hi to everyone! I want to say thank you for watching this video, really appreciated. Regarding with the UPDATES, sorry for not giving you the PART 2 at the moment for some reason. But I promise to make another video to show you the complete UPDATES until harvesting time. Give me 1-2 months. AGAIN THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYONE.
i usually do the germination in the sponges to avoid the stressing of the the plant during the transfer
Could you tell us what's the brown balls are that you added to the bottom of each glass?

Very interesting. I will steal this method and tweak it with used coffee cans and recycled water from my Bettas water tank for nutrients to try and grow pepper for my first time thank you!
Good👍 from India, simple method
Very good CongratulationsI like it very cleverly imaginativeVERY clever bravo super👏👏👏👏
Thankyou,i will try this method
So clear👍 thanks!
Can you use regular water-soluble fertilizer for this without burning the roots? Or is that what the MgNO3 is for?
I'd recommend you use actual measuring spoons vs tablespoon.
where is the update on the lettuce growing? where is the part 2?
you could have speeded up the process of germination by putting the bowls on the refrigerator as heat is an important factor in the process ….
So i just pull out the seedling from the paper towel? Won't the root break or damaged because it's stuck on the paper towel?

awesome video. very informative and easy to follow! just one question: do you shade the glass container to avoid algea (since there is nutrients in the solution)?

I have tried similar attempts, i can guarntee that most of the plant will die. When starting hydroponics, plants must undergo hardening stage to acclimate its roots for hydroponics.
hi, did you put the seeds exposed to full sun right after sowing? 😇

Last 6 months I have been trying to grow lettuce but so far not successful as my seeds are not germinating. Also I am not getting good sseds as it seems. I have been tried all method.
I hope you'll notice me. I just want to ask if I need to change the water while it's growing?

I don't see how this works? Doesn't the sponge need to touch the nutrient solution for it to absorb? Shouldn't the sponge or the roots need to be a little lower? Clear mason jars are going to be very prone for algae growth. This project could use a little tweaking but great idea!
How often do you need to change water?

Hi Sir, I just kept them indoor under grow light for 12hours since I just live in apartment where there is no outdoor space. And the nutrients solution were used from the start and you just refill it when it is near empty.
