Basil is happy

    

3 months

Here you can see the original basil back right and new basil seeds middle bottom right.  Those little square planters are extra seeds I started for transplanting outdoors.   Just finished all orginal lettuce and it was great.   Started gen 2 perhaps a bit late but it is coming along.


 Eat more kale . Had probably 3-4 colanders worth.   I liked it sauteed with lemon juice and garlic.  

Water: Status:   There hasn't been a trace of ammonia, nitrite, or nitrate in a long while.   PH 7.3

March

The lettuce and greens were amazing.   

Fish problems.   Things with 2 goldfish worked out great but all readings 0 on the test kits.  Added 2 more fish.   Everything was great but they got ick and 3 died in a matter of days.   Heating water to 85 and it cleared up on the remaining fish. 

Fare Thee well Capt. Pike.

Generation 2 on left, 3 on right.   Basil is a little yellow, not as much as it appears in picture but some.
