Guest guest Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 Gosh, David, I meant to ask you a question. In the Greenhouse, were the lettuces grown in gutters? that's what it looks like. I have a greenhouse (new to it this year) and I hope to grow lots of leafy greens and sprouts. Does anyone on the board here grow there own with a greenhouse? I could use some pointers.

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2004 Report Share Posted December 17, 2004 >Gosh, David, I meant to ask you a question. >In the Greenhouse, were the lettuces grown in gutters? that's what it looks like. Hey Trish, Yes, I believe those were gutters they were growing lettuces in. One thing that was interesting about the TOL method of sprouting was that they soaked seeds for a bit in a food grade hydrogen peroxide, to get rid of bacteria that comes with stored seeds. They also used EM in sprouts and other plants, see: http://www.treeoflife.nu/farm5.html For that matter, tol uses a hydrogen peroxide solution in soaking all nuts/seeds, in last stage of dishwashing rinsing, washing produce obtained externally from tol, etc. Eliminating harmful bacteria seems to be a driving force in their methods.

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Thanks David. Interesting link. I think I'll look into the costs and logistics of using gutters! who would have thunk it, gutters for lettuce?
