Goodday steemit, I've build a sail to sail away to colder places. Harvested some snappeas watched everything grow and added some more micronutrients, making a small mistake there.
The weatherforecast is hot all week with no rain with temperatures reaching 30°C. With trout I have to keep it below 25°C to not risk death and they stop eating at around 23°C. Seeing if this will be enough. Today I started at 20°C water temperature and reached 22,5°C.
edit: my favorite part feeding the fish
| 'dwarf sweet green' variety | three plants worth |
|---|---|
I cooked them for three minutes no condiments. I'm really excited about these, excellent taste, bit buttery and sweet. The larger ones did have 'dready texture' at the seems. (No idea how to say that in English properly ;)
So these grow well and don't take up extra space in my growbed, definitely doing these every year.
I have another variety 'Mrs. Lei', still flowering
| Element | My values | Typical hydroponic solution |
|---|---|---|
| N | 30 | 210 |
| P | 5 | 31 |
| K | 15 | 235 |
| Ca | 140 | 200 |
| Mg | 32 - 40 | 48 |
| Fe | 0.6 | 1 to 5 |
ph 6.6
No2 0.2 ppm
NH4 0.05 ppm
NO2 is up 0.1, I do want to keep it below 0.4. NO2 is highly toxic to fish, it rose this week because of heavy feeding and a bit of uneaten food buildup. pH was between 6.6 and 7.0, I'm happy with that, my target is 6.8.
P and K up a bit this week from adding some mixture I had previously made
bit of a mix up with my micronutrients this week :O
I had this nice list of numbers next to the elements scribbled on a piece of paper on my desk, turned out these were ppm targets !not grams I needed to add, luckily these were in the same ballpark so no poisoning the system fortunately.
dreaming about sweet sweet corn still, it's all 
maybe I should just cross the fields of wheat to some next by corn field when time comes, farmers May not like that though.
My jokes are terrible, here's a tomato picture to make up for it.
Thanks for all the upvotes, follow if you want more updates of my system.
