After all 12 rockwool plugs of Arugula died, we re-seeded and they are doing fine, then almost 90% of the lettuce shrivelled due to being too close to the heat registeres and having run out of water on the weekend even though they had been topped up with water on Friday.  The Kale is however 100% on fire.

Our nutrient mixture is 1L of distilled water with 2.6ml of A and B tonic added using a pipet.   The pH has been consitently around 2 and the basix solution has been added around 10-15 drops. to bring it back to a pH of 5.5 - 6.5.

New rockwool plugs have been added and our electric composter was shipped to use today from Nature Mills.
