Rapid Growth - 8 Week Cycle
This is the 8th Week
8th Week - Check it out. This is the 8th week from seeds and young seedlings. It is hard to see the crops ready for harvesting through the green foliage in the total hydroponic vegetable garden photo. But, we have pixie and patio tomatoes (terminal varieties that grow as bushes). We also have bountiful crops of egg plant, cantaloupe, four varieties of lettuce, summer squash, zucchini, cucumbers, pole beans, bell peppers, chili peppers, onions, beets, radishes and turnips. The large tomatoes growing as a vine are big boy tomatoes. All are exceedingly delicious, especially if you let them ripen on the vine. You will not believe the flavor and texture.

All this is growing in a 33 sq. ft. gravel culture hydroponic unit. It would take at least 250 sq. ft. of conventional soil garden and a lot more back-breaking labor to match its production. It is a good example of truly effortless vegetable gardening.
