The hoophouse and greenhouse plants are coming along well. I have several types of tomato, squash, melon, okra, peanuts, radish, and peppers; plus potato, zukes, cukes, and a small corn patch. The cabbage was hit by insects and the leaves look like they were shot with buckshot.

I'm experimenting with hydroponics this year. I have 2- 10ft long troughs circulating through a 600gal stock tank where I'm trying to grow more tomato's and peppers. The tomato are doing well (so far), but the peppers seemingly failed to germinate.

I’m planning to do some work with greenhouses and hydroponics in years to come when I have my own home. Would you be able to post some pictures of your setup?
