Looking like en electrical hazard
Looks great. Always appreciate your material. Loving the orchard too.
I am in! Fix the pump 😊if you get 200000.
I liked it so small contribution…but I am in!
Love your work
Luke, could you please list the model number of the Vivosun LED lights. They have many models.
Don't leave us hanging, fix that pump!
Mlgardener420 soon?
Grow some weed man
Interesting, 8 years ago when you were doing videos and gardening in your basement, I (and others) asked you numeruous times what brand lights you were using and you acted like it was some bug secret and wouldn't answer anyone's questions regarding the lighting brands; You also refused to speak about lumens or color temp for plant growth.
Look into led highbay lights as well. I have grabbed 4 packs of 200 watt true draw 26k lumens for 50-60 bucks sometimes. 4000-5000k is a great all around spectrum.
Fluorescents put off a lot of unneeded heat that LEDs don't. I'm going to wait until some of the fluorescent bulbs in my older grow light setup start failing before I replace them with LEDs…I use the heat they put off to keep my sourdough warm during the proofing period when making bread. 😂
Have you tried reflective mylar film?
Yes, fix the pump 😊
Can you send the number of your lites .thanks Lillian
Growing overnight during off-peak hours can save you electricity (money!) and help mitigate excessive heat if that’s also an issue. Bc we all know you’ll need fans, humidifiers, etc. A video about VPD would be cool too!
Great video! I'd love to see you get a grow tent for your seed starting and make videos with it. I started my entire vegetable garden in a mini grow tent for the first time last year and it was a game changer. The grow tents come in all kinds of sizes and the inside walls are all completely reflective so no light is wasted. And the tents have bars on the top to hang the lights on, and they have cheap clip on fans to clip to the corners of the tents to help strengthen the seedlings. My peppers did amazing last year. You could even get a tent big enough to put those tables right inside, hang the lights and never have to move reflective pieces around ever again.
I think you should not only fix the pump but do a test on what the plants like better, the city water you're currently using or the well water from the pump. If you make content repairing the pump could it be a tax deduction? 🍅
Very good video. Looked in Amazon but there are a few model of VivoSun. Could you please let us know which one you are using. I liked this video because the one you talked about the lumens, led, etc it was a bit to much for me. Thank you for taking the time to do all the videos. I have learned a lot from them and continue learning.
You keep adding to my Christmas/wish list!
Thank you! I was just thinking about using grow lights. Yes, thank you “pot” growers. The prices are great. 😂 Fix that pump, fix that pump. My great uncle had one on the family farm. ❤❤
Most of the time, well water is preferred over chlorinated. Do you have access to a well tap or is there a riser installed? If you decide to fix it, I would definitely have that water tested by a certified lab for bacteria, lead and other metals, and nitrates and other nutrients. The EGLE lab in Lansing has decent prices. Stagnant well water can grow bacteria so you may need to shock it. And, you mentioned the pump was old, so there may be some lead in the piping materials. If fertilizers were used on your property, they may leech nitrates into the water/soil.
Can you post a pic of how the reflective panels are hung up? Thank you, good video.
Put in a hand pump instead of wasting money on the old beast
Is there a reason why you dont use plant grow shelving?
Fix the pump if you can afford it.
Most of us have had LEDs long before we knew.
LEDs were originally only in red. They were used in electronic equipment (TV remotes) long before grow lights.
They are indicator lights that don't overheat the capacitors, resistors, etc..
Technology HAS come a long way! !😉
Sorry to ask about something from out of the blue, but I was just wondering about the 'butter neck' squash variety you guys were stabilizing last year. I would love to get some seeds for that, the shape looks wonderful!
-Thank you again for all your content and products! Your seeds are the best ever and I am in love with my new seed trays!! They are so sturdy!!
QUESTION do you have a video that explains how to winterize perennial plants in ground for first winter.
