NFT Hydroponics Basil Perpetual Grow Guide
Tips, Tricks
We grow Genovese basil, Thai basil, Lettuce Leaf basil and Greek basil in an Aeroflow 18 hybrid NFT / Aeroponics hydroponics system using hydroton expanded clay balls and Flora Duo nutrients by General Hydroponics. We also take basil cuttings and root them in an EZ-Clone aeroponic cloner / cloning machine.

Everest, I thought seeds hated light? Some tutorials I see state that seeds should be left to pop in darkness, your were left under a grow light. Do different seeds have different requirements?

Hi +Everest Fernandez Great guide for growing basil! I have a question though, instead of NFT, could I grow basil and possibly cilantro in an Ebb & Flow system? I would just used those huge rockwool blocks and plant the seeds in those.

What about the returns on investment on all the equipment and electricity costs?

Great video. I really want to look into hydroponics - I'm moving into a city apartment. Where would you recommend I start with reading/watching and how much space/money would I need to start simple, e.g. herbs?

So you don't have a issue with rock wool staying to moist and causing root rot?can you transplant to a clay pot for soil later, if you wanted to sale a few plants?

Cool! Did you ever try the FloraNova? I'm a big fan of that stuff, I use it for everything and it's helping me get some strawberries right now! And you really come to appreciate just the single bottle

Great video showing off all that great technology but I see the future. It's me running down the stairs with wife chasing yelling, "You spent $1100 to grow fucking basil, you better run!"
All jokes aside I started my indoor gardening with basil 1 year ago to see if I was an idiot or not before moving on to more complicated plants. Have not gone without it since.
