Why did he grow them in a window screen?
You will laugh when Snöfrid speaks.
Come with me on my quest for waste free radishes.
A vendor provided me with a free sample hose with the understanding that it would appear in a video. Details on the hose are available at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01L7PZDDA
The light cycle was 14 hours on 10 hours off unless I felt like having the “sun” shine in my office while I worked.
Plants were grown in an office environment under a 4 bulb 4ft High Output T5 fluorescent fixture 216 Watts.
All the grows required top offs of fresh water. PH and EC were not checked. Fertilizer was only added once (right after thinning plants).
Nutrient Recipe
2g MasterBlend Tomato 4-18-38

Your a genius need friends like you add me on th cesar aquino
I like that you have included "what happened" with the how to!
Good job Jeb.
I use saran wrap with holes poked in them to solve that issue. Although I think it only works on smaller plants cuz the weight would droop the plastic. I never used net cups or rock wool before
Try cloth screen
I did not expect that Swedish https://youtu.be/-VFwKDZQxAg?t=392 she talks about "better is the hero’s noble poverty/misery, than the dragon’s concealed desire for gold" what is this and how did you find it.. I muted it*
Try cut pool noodles
Great tips!
enjoyed watching and listening to this interesting combination of music and plant experiment. yes I laughed..good job
airconditioner filter like whats in a window AC
Burlap. Much better stretch. It will eventually rot, but not as soon as one might think. Available at fabric stores.
I just saw your video. The stretching of the window screen is very annoying. I came up with an idea for you (not testest). As only the roots need to be in the water, you could maybe design something like a hanging rack. You tie a cord to the head of the radish (just where the leaves starting, maybe a rubber band for a bit more flexibility during growth and more grip) and hang it on a rack so just the roots are in the water. In that case, the "fruit" could grow without the effort to push through a material.
Try growing in submerged pots filled with calcined clay (turface, etc)
Stretchier screen? Would need more support to stop bowing. Perhaps you could snip the screen threads around the shoot so the constructing threads become loose
JEBBBBBBB!!! Love your channel!
Judicious, non-overlapping snips in the screen will permit stretch — much like skin grafts were stretched to fit over areas otherwise too large to cover, back before there were special (power) tools invented for use in the operating room. The technique is still useful in medicine, today, when a circumferential bandage is placed over a wound before the region so wrapped has time to fully swell. Judicious snips…
Try coffee filters with small holes
Try the kratky method
be my second dad
Just discovered your channel. You look familiar are you from SD?
Impressive Jeb.
This is why God made dirt . I forget what day .
cotton instead of rock wool?
Coco coir maybe?
Or the little plastic beads that are inside of beanie babies
Jeb!! You are a friggin genius!!! Ima try this but I’ll fill the strainer with dirt to house the seedling. We shall see😃
Yo, can anyone tell me what the screens are made of and is it safe? Id like to grow microgreens with it. Thanks!
Or maybe airsoft bullets little quarter inch plastic beads
I love you Jeb, but put an air bubbler on that. It gets rid of anaerobic scum and prevents algae. Yay for air bubblers!
oh my god you are genius
I would cut slits in the screen once the roots going down so as it grows it separates the screen.
Music is lovely 😊 thanks for telling us what she meant it’s lovely 😊
cheese cloth
Hahahah! I Love your videos!
they are uglier than old mans balls
You’re hilarious but at the same time odd which is just amazing. Love the content man
What if you use an elastic mesh or silicone so it doesn’t constrict as much? Just a thought.. 🖖🏼
What if you pruned the leaves would it encourage more root growth?
You are incredible thank you 🙏🏻
U are such a smart guy in a really creepy way. Kinda like being a master gardener combined with a silence of the lamb movie lol
Have you ever grown in Orby’s
I guess they radish stems are edible
Dude… Your videos are terrific…
Jeb invent your own screen with biodegradable edible material
Those radishes are store bought! Warms my heart seeing nice young man being inordinate. you’re Jeb. On face value, I have to hand it to you, every minute you have great timing
8:11 how does the leaf taste?
use some cloth or some paper towels?
Try nylon – like stockings. They stretch a lot.
Jeb, I love your videos and I love you as a fan! You make me laugh and have inspired me to start growing vegetables in my room. I love it! Thank you kind soul.
What powder you’re adding to the water?
Have you tried using "tulle" fabric? (It’s used to make tutu’s, and maybe bridal veils.) It would have more give than window screen.
