2025 gardens and such

That's too bad, hopefully it doesn't get that cold up there. How tall do your bush beans get, do they start producing quicker than pole beans?

We survived the low got to 37 here last night. Maybe a little cloud covered helped us out this time. 

We do a reset every 6 months on the hydroponics garden. Spring and fall usually, because we give it a good power spraying. The fertilizer is two parts dissolved into the water. One is minerals and one is calcium. I also have learned of good phdown maker that really works better for our water to maintain its ph levels. Even with water softened it still was really high, but this new stuff seems to work really well. After a reset it takes quite a bit to bring it down to right ph, then each week when I add more fertilizer and water, I only need to add couple tablespoons to maintain the balance. It works.

Oh, you are growing your bush beans indoors? I was thinking you grew them outside. I'm just having a hard time with my green beans this year and was thinking about trying something different especially if they grow quicker than pole beans. Maybe I can get some to produce before the year is over.
