Some More Pics

Starting to fill the new hydroponic system.



The main strawberry hydroponic setup.  I think I finally have this thing working to my satisfaction.  It has been difficult to get running because of the volume of water (about 50 gallons) versus the other systems (about 10 gallons).  Strawberries are in our coconut fiber pots, which has been ok except the holes are too large, and they're falling in now that they're wet.

This strawberry seems to look pretty good so far.  Haven't grown them before so I can't say what I should be expecting to see.  You can see how the coconut pot has frayed a bit and is about to drop into the tube.  I need to drill the holes smaller.

The hydroponic tote looks fantastic.  The herbs couldn't be happier in here.  The basil looks good too considering the one on the right was attacked by a falling chair when we moved the large 2" tube system into the tunnel.
