A Big Day for the New Greenhouse

Jai Ganesha!

A few days ago our monks moved tomato starts into the new hydroponic green house. This officially marks the near conclusion of what was a complex building and setup process. This also heralds the beginning of a long and prosperous chapter of an abundance of delicious vegetables (though, yes, a tomato is technically a fruit). Yoginathaswami, Vishvanathaswami, Tejedevanatha and Dayanatha all worked together to move the starts into their new home and properly set up their liquid nutrients. Not long and our monks will be enjoying a wealth of tasty tomatoes. Aum.

little tomato plants are given a home in our new hydroponic green house

Image

These are the channels where the new plants will grow into their next stage of maturity

Image

These tiny plants are about to be given larger coconut husk coir in which to spread their roots

Image

Image

when dry, these coco coir are quite thin

Image

But give them some water and they get much bigger

Image

Perfect for these little plants!

Image

Swami then adds them to their nutrient channels. Enjoy your new home little plants!
