    I love the idea of these lights.

  • @jeremiahbullfrog9288 says:

    What an innovative solution to a “marketing communications breakdown” .. glad you didn’t scrap the video

  • @Hoocho says:

    When Searching for lights like this look for specs on wattage, you want a halo light with a minimum of 20w per ring.
    Search “Halo Grow light”
    As a general rule the more wattage the more light output.
    Ideally full spectrum but any white light will do.

  • @Draakdarkmaster6 says:

    i wonder, would it be possible to 3d print a structure that simulates capillary action, like an artificial wicking system to be able to phase out disposable substrates like coconut coir for growing plants more sensitive to flooding like alliums? if so you could lower the operational cost of hydroponics even further than you have.

    • @Hoocho says:

      I’ve thought about this many times. It would have to be biodegradable. I’m already hyper aware of the waste involved in grow media. And printed parts.
      I stress endlessly about making the designs as plastic efficient as possible since so many people will print them.
      A 1% reduction in plastic can equal a lot of dollars and kg of wastage.
      I am super excited by the idea tho.

    • @Draakdarkmaster6 says:

      @@Hoocho there is a biodegradable plastic made for this but it is unbelievably expensive. the thought i had for something reusable like a net cup made to be endlessly reused to lower the overall upkeep and cost overhead of hydroponics while also making kratky applicable to more types of plants. PETG would be a good candidate because while it isn’t bio-degradeable it *is* the easiest plastic to recycle and would last an extremely long time even if used as one part, continuously.

      essentially i’m talking about a self watering net cup rather than substrate, that way a bio-degradeable substrate like scoria can be used instead of something single use that gets spendy for the kitchen gardener.

    I have several Thai cons growing well. Good soil and good light is going to help them grow as quick as they need to grow. Let them get root bound, don’t overfeed them. Don’t stress the humidity to any crazy degree. They are plants that will often suffer from overzealous, well meaning plant keepers. Give it good light, don’t overwater or overfeed, and leave them alone. People in your position, having a lot of knowledge of fruiting plants, the chemistry and art and craft of hydroponics, growing lots of other stuff, lots of tools, and a youtube channel, are more likely to over do it with this plant. Good placement with light, healthy aroid type soil, a pot that lets their roots get dense, allowed to dry out a fair bit between watering, and then leave them alone. They adapt to a good space, settle in, and then get growing. Its good to remember that Monstera are very large plants and most people not in tropical climates only experience them as basically infant plants, and as a result, most people focus in on a very short term, limited range of the plants growth pattern, due to space availability and time frame. But I have friends in Northern California with a Thai Con that is like 4 inches in diameter on it’s main stem, and is about 10 feet wide, and is currently fruiting, in an area that stays under 90 degrees in its very hottest days and the humidity is always around 45%. But the light is good and it is well established. They haven’t repotted in years, the plant is so massive. Benevolent neglect in the right light is the true secret.

  • @JasonCarr1979 says:

    Defiantly an over nutrient problem. I’ve seen this in other house plants when the farmers try to give their crops nutrient to their house plants. I think you could water once with leafy green nutrient and then just top up with tap water. I’m also curious for you to run some water through the media and get an ec reading of the outflow.

  • @john57125 says:

    Yea that EC is really high for most indoor plants like this . Some can tolerate higher than others but really ideally 1.5 is about the highest you would want for most, and any higher does them more harm and actually slows down their growth. They do not grow fast enough to need that level of nutrient and it causes stress to the plants systems

  • @TG.34295 says:

    Plants are cool.

  • @chrislynch1011 says:

    I’ve always bought the highest wattage full spectrum lights I can afford, most come with dimmers too, not that I’ve ever really had to use that.
    I’m extremely careful about fertiliser, always erring on the less is best, and there’s plenty of times I do top ups with plain water

    And damn! Saw ‘lights’and was hoping for a discount code! 😅

  • @barcaisbest10 says:

    🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

  • @Scrambles7 says:

    BIG DOG!!! Talking about halos so much, you’re a bloody hydro angel. Love it.

  • @sativagirl1885 says:

    take LED light bulbs and cut off the plastic bulb.
    NOW you’ve got cheap grow lights!

  • @wholebuncha1844 says:

    I may never actually follow any of your advice or guides but god damn do I love hearing you talk.

  • @richiehos says:

    Wife (with multiple monstera, including multiple tai cons, some big Jose Bueno, etc) thinks it’s a humidity problem. The leaf gets stuck in its sheath without high humidity and needs assistance. We’re no expert by any means however.

  • @reecewalker6624 says:

    Nice thai con looking forward to seeing more leaves :))

  • @michellecolledge2355 says:

    Love the self-watering multi-bucket. I need more of them. Thanks Hoocho.

  • @compticny3138 says:

    Enjoyed the video and will check out the lights. I do have a question though, I painted my grow room with the whitest high-gloss paint I could find. Is there a reason that you area was not painted?
