Other Veggies in my Grow Room :)

Thanks dude! Thanks for stopping by and reading through it. I just started it as with my first grow, so its been a huge and fast experience since starting. I will update it in a few weeks, then after that, I am going to plant some more peppers and Mint and other things. Clone some more flower bushes from the neighborhood. Its quiet the fun I tell ya!

Here is an update picture of my Cilantro that has been harvest once, and about to get harvested again for tonights Carne Asada BBQ!

The soy beans are coming along good too. I counted 25 pods. So now I know how many plants I need to grow to get a good batch of them. I love Steaming them and easting Edamame's.

Great garden! I used my indoor set up to start my veg and herb seeds in March, and most are freakin' enormous now. I transplanted everything outside in May, just don't have the space in my current grow room. How big is your space? Do you have seperate flower and veg rooms? I would love to convert my entire basement!

My tomatoes are starting to show now. There are about a half a dozen, and plenty more coming. These plants have grown very well since seed.

Also an updated pic of the Tamarind Tree.

Those look like the tomatoes I planted in my back yard!

Are they San Marzano(Roma) as well?

Im, Not sure which ones they are.....Let me check......It is Roma!

Now that I got the 8 bulb T5 setup on, plants are moving along much faster now!

This is a pic of a pepper that was a clone clipping from 3 months ago. Worked very well!

The one outside died just recently, so at least I saved it in some way or other....

Here is a pic of my avocado and onion. I will post more of the tomatoes and Tamarind and others tonight.

Here are my 2 avocados and cilantro and a pepper clone, and house plant clones.

The avocados are looking nice. I need to save more seeds..

The tamarind are a bitch to get to sprout, let me know if you have any issues with them. I love them too. Very cool fruit to it during the summer. Never tried stews, but yes, snow cone tamarind style is the shit.

I need to post an update from my tomatoes.....

Let me pick one off the vine, too dark for outdoor tomat pics.

Are in....

I picked about 12 today. Still have about 40 on the vines. Finally had time to snap a pic of the plants. They were started from seed using floro, then transplanted outside. Not too bad.....

Above the first post in the thread, to the right, there is a drop down menu under thread tools. Just click there and you should be good to go.

I'm so jealous, I haven't had garden-grown tomatoes in so long!

You also might want to let them ripen a little longer. Maybe it is just harsh lighting from a flash, but (assuming you didn't get some tomato that isn't red) they should be evenly red all the way around and come off the stem fairly easily when picked.

All in all, looks great. Keep up the delicious work

Yea, I pick them when there about to fall and red. But some where on the grown, dam birds....They found them. Thanks for stopping by.....

Just so you guys know, the avacados you are sprouting will not produce fruit. 99% of the seeds from them don't produce fruit. You will have some awsome rootstock, but it will never give you any fruit.

Really why is this?

For some reason most avocados just don't produce fruit. They will grow a great tree and all, just no fruit. I learned this in one of my horticulture classes while studying for my degree.
Here is a link talking about it. Avocado Trees - Frequently Asked Questions

(told by my mom a long time ago) my mom had gotten an avocado from her school teacher whi owned an avo farm, she brings it home to her dad, my grandpa, and he punctures nails into it and places it over water, putting water on the seed almost daily, after rooted, he transplants to soil, and when he thought was right plants it next to his concrete wall. as a kid i had fun picking the avos from it, and so had my mother. one avo, one tree, 150+ avo per year(that i can remember, usually over 150)...clostest avocado tree was 300 feet or further away, little to no insects to help pollenation. my aunt had it cut down this year. i guess we got a great seed. my family has a history in having a green thumb tho... RIP 2 my fav avocado tree and my only entertainment when at my grandpa's as a child LOL(no offense grandpa)

nice maters. those roma V's(roma hybrid 5) ???

Yup indeed. And there good too!

I have had a steady tomatoes harvest for about 2 months. I have notice that these tomatoes last for weeks and weeks in the fridge with out getting soft and are very tasty compared to grocery store. Not to mention I saw 3.99 a pound for them, so fuck that.

I have some onions that are about done in my flower room. And here is a picture of a pepper plant clone that is fully developed into a nice little tree. Its under 18 hours under 8 floros. And is blooming with flowers. I guess I will let it produce.

Been snipping off both these veggies for about 6 months now.
