was he using a propane burner to generate c02? Because c02 is completely non flammable and combustion reactions are inhibited or completely suppressed by c02. It’s used in fire extinguishers.
There is also no exposed wiring in that room. I had a sparky mate check all my work just to be sure.
sorry to hear about your mate

If you're looking at 750L/200Gal fabric pots, I'm guessing you're intending to grow trees? Unless you stake-down the pots, they'll still have a possibility to tip-over in high winds (that's my experience, anyway, with plants too big for the size of the pot, but that's my learning-curve from this year's season).

The soil in that spot looks pretty good already, so why not just amend the existing soil & put them in the ground? You can buy a lot of amendments for what you're planning on spending on pots alone. Just a thought....

Day 40 for this seed run. Pushed the feed up to 1000ppm for this res including a pk boost and it was a little hot for nearly all of them but first run with them all so had to see what they can handle. The 88G13HP has been disappointing. The rest seem to be doing ok.

The Demo F2s have 2 weeks to go

Had a cull in the nursery and out of 60 or so seeds popped I am down to about 10 that will get a 2nd run.

Do you use the 500/tds scale for PPM, and that’s a 2.0EC?
Shame about the HP being disappointing.
Do you mind letting me know where you get your 50% from, I’m sick of buying shares in OxyPlus.
