I'm still working on the best spacing for lettuce, I wish they had custom tops for the Farms. Oh well, I went with 6 pods from a nine pod AG Heirloom Salad Greens kit. - AG pods: Black seeded Simpson, Rogue D' Hiver, Deer Tongue, Red Sails, Marvel of 4 Seasons, Parris Island - AG nutes: 10ml I skipped the peroxide this time, historically my lettuce sprouts fast and I'm increasing the nutes so soon I don't have to worry about algae. That and the new Farm deck has that nice corner cover! These are my favorites out of this kit. The Simpson sometimes gets bitter when the others aren't bitter. Still working that one out.  |

Looks wonderful! And plenty of room for salad size lettuce!

Fed: 20ml of AG nutes The two pods on the left aren't thriving... I looked down the throat and they sprouted so I pushed them up to get some light on the greenery and we'll see what happens, that is the Parris Island and the Marvel of Four Seasons.  |

First harvest from this one. I still have two un sprouted pods...  Oh, and my latest natural rodent control!  There were three of these guys buzzing around today and a similar sized hawk! |

Looks great. That is a bummer about the 2 pods that have not germinated. If they are AG pods you can contact for a placement since it has been about a month.
Beautiful rodent control! Though a little scary-- one of my dogs is about 4lbs and we always worry about hawks and other birds thinking she is prey.

They have taken a few cats in the neighborhood, but we have a lake they spend most of their time fishing in.
The hawk that hangs with these guys had taken to sitting on a fence post near my driveway.

We have hawks here, too. So far between the hawks and feral cats that roam the woods, even the bunnies have disappeared.

We have them here as well. I hate them. Good for rodents but they freak me out when I am out with the dog.

I contacted AG customer support and they are sending replacement pods! This is another that should be getting F&F'd today but I'm putting it off until next feeding. We've had two salads off of these so far, tender and tasty! Because there are so few plants, I went with: AG nutes:12ml  |
