DIY GROW BOX - New indoor hydroponic grow box using LED lights and DWC - simple hydroponic food
Very happy to be showing off the new project I've been talking about - "project BB5" is now officially up and running - took a little extra time to get it finished and ready for use INSIDE the kitchen - but here it is ! It's a very simple two level deep water cutler system. Or "DWC" , adapted from a server cabinet from "IT". It was donated to us - So please do not try to price these out , they're not cheap , this was just a great opportunity to build a new kind of grow box - the fans were also donated , and at one point were very expensive new .
We're also using two LED lights on a timer - the air pumps and fans run 24/7 - we used Mylar blankets for the reflective inside . And Rubbermaid tubs as the containers where the plants will live . (links below to get started on buying your hydro supplies!)
As of right now we have strawberries, jalapeño peppers , thyme , cilantro , basil , chives , garlic chives , and a floppy looking mustard leaf plant lol . Eventually we will add some mint when we make more room !
**UPDATE** So we're in week 7 in this video, we started the bloom cycle about 2 weeks ago, and as you can see we're already getting flowers ! added some more Basil, took out a mustard leaf, added a cherry tomato plant, interested to see how well that will turn out !
I've also undergone an identity change , lol I'll provide some info and maybe a brief description about what me and my goal of the channel. AND some exciting news about a new website! - so be on the lookout for these updates! essentially nothing will change except my name, my intentions will remain the same, lol!
