"Not a place to show your strength"! I am your new subscriber and believe i will learn a lot here
Thank you great explanation
how frequently the water need to be changed
Did you soak the seeds before germination ?
Tell the contents used that is most important u missed that
You sir just got a new subscriber!! Just don't call me cause I'll immediately hang up 🤣
where can i get dese ph up and down solution
From where we can get buffer solution?
Finally now I know thanks
Is there a way to tell before the branch gets full grown?
Good and nice video❤ so ican begin my hydroponics 😊
Thank you so much!!!!!!!! I’m Struggling with my Queen Elizabeth and Camelot. I will try this 🩷
You are most welcome. Do comment back if you were able to figure it out. Happy gardening
A great video with a lot of knowledge. Appreciate it mainly as I do Home Gardening
Still doesn't easily identify the difference. That determinate tip you pointed out looks like a leaf node and you didn't even show the tip of an indeterminate. You pointed the camera below it. And both varieties will have flowers that come off the side of the stems. I'm not sure how this actually helped anyone.
Yeah, I was thinking we are only able to find out when it is already too late with determinate ones.😂 I have messed up the labels and have some Roma in the mix and now I've lost patience and rough pruned all the suckers at 2 feet and put them to root just in case. They all have started rooting, so I can hopefully start new plants of determinate ones that aren't skeletons 😂. Dear me I am so co fused. I had flowers left right and centre 😂 and definitely around the top because that is where the plant grows, logically. I have a mix of Romas, San marzanos, Big Tom F1s, Thessalonikis, Costoluto Fiorentinos, and a cherry type god knows. 27 plants and counting, thanks to me being unsure. 😂
Thanks for such a simple explanation. I have grown them for years and always thought it was difficult to find out until it stopped growing vertically, but I have never actively looked at the growing tip. The only confusion are the ones called 'semi determinate' like one I am growing now called Cornue des Andes, an Italian type. This puts out loads of side growth like determinates but still retains a growing tip, but the habit is much weaker than a true indeterminate and it runs out of steam at about two metres.
Sir, how do you get those pelletted seeds?
Sir can i use ph pepar strip to major ph.... Alternative to ph meter please🙏
If you are unable to get the nutrient mixture what are the measurements for using other NPK fertilizer
I bought a pack of tomato seeds that was a mix of a couple or more varieties. After taking them home to start my seedlings, I realized it said on the back that some were determinate and some were indeterminate (and I realize now I should have figured that out beforehand but I think I grabbed them in a rush). So when I realized I had both kinds in the same pack I realized I had an issue: how the heck am I supposed to tell which is which? It’s obviously important to know because it totally changes the layout of the garden, knowing whether they need a trellis and how tall they will likely get. Now here I am trying to figure that out. Is there any way I can figure it out in the early stages of growth? My tomato plants are 6-12 inches tall roughly, and have to go in the ground may 30th because that’s the planting date but also is when my schedule is free for me to plant them.
Concise n clear information on the application of this meter. Very good job, thank you.
Tks Good Knowledge imparting
Hello sir plz share your number plz I am at zambia lusaka
I need to know det/indet types in order to pot them in the right-sized pot. So, ind ends in a leaf, but det ends in a flower, which is a dead end for its growth. Is that right? I think you have just saved some of my seedlings from an early death. Many thanks!!
Yes. You are right. Glad to know this saved few plants. Happy gardening
Bravo. My hubby told me the difference is in the height. He is the gardener in the family but I am taking more of an interest now that I'm in my 70's years young. Thanks. I won't tell him how you explained this so clearly with a video. Now I won't feel like such a dummy.
Excellent explaination... Thanks👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
What size container do you recommend for cherry tomato?
For cherry tomatoes, when grown using hydroponic fertilizer (fed daily), you need 3-4 gallon/10 litres of growing medium. With non daily feeding you need 6gal/20liter medium. Container shape/depth doesn't matter
Is it possible to tell the difference when they're seedlings?
No. It's not possible to tell. Some varieties have different leaf shape/ traits. Those can be identified from true leaves but your still won't be able to tell if it's determinate or indeterminate
Does it attract pests, if yes how to take care of it? Is there any favorable season to grow these or can it be grown anytime without complication of infestation?
Well done. You explained it very well. However, you don't need that LOUD music crap.... It adds Nothing to your Video and I find it very annoying.
Thanks for your comment. Glad you liked it Noted about the music part. Willl tone it down or remove it in future.
They better not show all the open toe and dirty but hands touching everything.
Does TDS or EC have anything to do with whether your water is clean or not? Or just about how salty the water is?
Sir i want to know how to do darin analysis .beacuse i planted plants in polytunnel by using cocopeat and need to check Ec can you help me
can you show us the mixture of nutrients formula from 50% nutrients to bloom nutrients please.
Hello sir really appreciate people like you who help the complete beginners can you help me I grow my strawberry seedling inside with led light it’s been 10-15 days the set of leaf started to emerge could you suggest me the nutrition and dosage to time to give them ?
Thanks for your comments. For strawberries, I would suggest give a general purpose hydroponics fertilizer like this gardenguru.in/products/general-grow-500-liters If your medium is cocopeat, you need to water daily with nutrients. Adjust the right ec and ph. If you are interested in learning more in depth.

सर यदि आप हिंदी में कहेंगे नॉर्थ इंडिया वाले जो हिंदी में ही समझते हैं उनके लिए बहुत अच्छा होगा बाकी आपके लिए शुभकामनाएं❤
How too down ph 6.8-7.1 to 6.1 without using H2SO4? And also maintain tds 300-500
What variety are they sir???
Cheramy from Rijkzwaan seeds
@@TheGeekgardener i tried growing th same but could never got them in such beautiful bunches... Always kind of single fruits in a very small bunch... Never such long bunches...
@@atulagarwal5514 the secret is to make sure pollination happens well. Just giving a quick flick to the flower stalk will do the trick
Very clear explanation
Glad you liked it
@@TheGeekgardener why have u stopped uploading more videos
The answer is ... Add more water.
How many days of cultivation sir?
Thank you for mentioning the nutrient contributions of pH up and down. Many people don't understand this and don't realize if they are adding both each day, they are no longer feeding their intended nutrient ratios anymore.
Very good presentation
Hi, I was wondering if the coco peat that you used as a sample in taking EC & pH parameters was previously buffered.
The cocopeat I used wasnt buffered. Buffered cocopeat is quite expensive in India and is preferred only for certain commercial projects. one can always do the buffering themselves, if required.

@TheGeekgardener My doubt is, will the seeds in these tomatoes grow into new plants? or do we have to buy seeds everytime we want to grow a new plant?
if you are collecting seeds from a plant that grew from open pollinated or heirloom variety seeds, then it will grow into the same variety. if you are growing a plant from a hybrid seed, it is better to buy the seeds again from the seed source.
Have you tried using Baking Soda for PH up
I used it long ago. It also doesn't keep it stable for long. Now, I use KOH(Potassium hydroxide) In my systems the pH keeps shooting up. I use mostly pH down.
Excellent. Thank you, sir.
You are welcome :-)
