Well the time has come. We are out of space indoors and there are several more plants we want to experiment with hydroponically. Strawberries, Red Raspberries, Blackberries, Meyers Lemons, and Figs (dwarf) are on the top of our list.
Raspberries and Blackberries have a dormancy requirement and although we could uproot them and put them in our walk-in game cooler on the ranch, it wasn't practical for us. The Meyers Lemons can be put in the house during brutally cold times (like this past week - 11 degrees in Central Texas !), the figs we are still sorting out.
We have looked at greenhouses and have decided it was best to install one due to all the animals we have here that would decimate any of these plants we attempt to grow hydroponically outdoors.
