On the table and Utilising Waist

I am so excited about my new Calpus table it will allow me to produce more of my own seed stock.
New hybrid capsicum and Tomato

Lettuce Plugs
I am impressed how well the plants grow on it, the roots draw to it in no time, if you look you can see them in the pictures. the last few days we have had continuous wind and the table has kept up with the vaporisation.
I often get asked about recycling my medium, I used to but have decided the results are not as good second time round unless you spend reasonable time leaching out the old nutrient. What I now do is dump into cheep 40 Lt containers with plenty of holes drilled in the bottom and grow my bulky things like potatoes, rock melons and such giving them a hand feed once a week when I do a mix other wise the get a good wet with the hose
