Indoor WateringWhen watering in the Flavor Lab, keep these 5 things in mind |
1. PLANT STAGES
Plants in different stages of growth (seed>seedling>planting> established plant) have different water requirements.
Seeds/Seedlings - Due to their non-existent or shallow root system, they require light and frequent watering.
Plantings/Established Plants - Already have an established root system so they require longer and less frequent watering
2. SEASONS
The angle of the sun and the intensity of heat vary throughout the year and affects the microclimates in the greenhouse differently each season.
Water less frequently in the Winter and gradually increase to more frequently in the Summer
3. ROOTS
Shallow roots of established plants require less water and deep-rooted plants require more. Here are some examples of plant watering in the Winter:
Shallow Roots - Light Soak |
Medium Roots - Moderate Water |
Deep Roots - Heavy Water |
Spinach, Lettuce, Onions, Nasturtium |
Arugula, Broccoli Rabe, Marigolds (until est. then 1x a week), Peas, Radish, Tomato |
Carrots, Beets |
