Why one Oasis cube is ruining your arugula harvest!

This Video is from the Youtube channel: “Homegrown Passion”. 

Why is one Oasis cube ruining your arugula harvest? In this quick hydroponic growing tip, I’m showing you why I plant two Oasis cubes in each NFT hole instead of trying to grow more arugula from one crowded cube.

When you stuff too many arugula seeds into one Oasis cube, the seedlings can compete, the center can stay too wet, airflow gets worse, and the plants often come up weak, uneven, or overcrowded. Instead, I use two separate Oasis cubes in one NFT channel hole to get better germination, healthier roots, fuller growth, and a stronger hydroponic arugula harvest.

This little greenhouse trick helps us save space in the NFT system while still growing beautiful, full rows of arugula for fresh harvests. These arugula seedlings are only six days old, and they are already filling in the channel beautifully.

In this video, you’ll see:

Why one Oasis cube can limit your arugula production
Why adding more seeds to one cube can cause germination problems
How I fit two Oasis cubes into one NFT hole
Why good airflow matters for young arugula seedlings
How two separate cubes can improve root health and plant spacing
A simple NFT hydroponic trick for fuller leafy green production

We grow arugula, lettuce, herbs, and other leafy greens in our hydroponic greenhouse using NFT channels, and small changes like this can make a big difference in production.

I’ve also been working on my new Patreon page, and I’m hoping to have it up and running by next week. That’s where I’ll be sharing more behind-the-scenes greenhouse life, extra growing tips, hydroponic setup details, nutrient mixing, and the day-to-day farm moments that don’t always make it into regular YouTube videos.
