This is our hydroponics set up. We use pipes and styrofoam boxes. Those on the pipes are growing slow I wonder why. Those on styro boxes looks like pechay to me. We harvest some of our lettuce and it taste bitter. This is just a portion of our hydroponics set up. It's an expensive hobby and we still don't know if the lettuce will be very healthy

My father may forget about the weather. He was just inspired to see in YouTube that others grow lettuce easily

@averygirl72 Lettuce is easy to grow, but there are things to keep in mind when growing lettuce.

Did you make this set-up yourself?
Been planning to do this but haven't got the time to do it yet.

This is built when we are building our store. My father ask the help of construction workers to set up this

@averygirl72 If you are into that maybe try something about aquaponics where you also have fish as the source of nutrients of the plants instead of using the chemicals. I think it is similar to Hydroponics except that you used the fish waste to feed your plants.

I'm not sure if my father is getting it right. But we should not give up in case it didn't work perfectly. We use cocopeat and foam instead of soil. Hope we get it right after many tries and soon earn good money from them

Hope it works well for you. I tried some plants in water last year and decided it was too much work.
