In this episode we will be looking at the plants after 1 week, we will also answer some questions about the indoor garden, and finally we will look at the 3 requirements to have a successful high intensity organic garden.

If plants need a rest period from light then how do they grow in Alaska? They have 24 hrs of day light in the summer and grow some of the largest veggies I have seen.
What would be the optimum distance for salad greens?
Hey Luke. The bed and germination rates are excellent. How much thinning out of the seedlings will you do and will you show that in a video please ?
A couple methods of keeping things watered I've seen I've seen were on Cody'sLab, one being an artificial water table setup (where you have a layer of gravel at the bottom fed by an external pool of water to keep it topped up), and growing in just pure gravel which is watered by a circulation system that trickles into the top of the container and drains back out into the holding tank, and works quite well, the 2nd method does require having electricity, but the first, just keep topped up with rainwater and it's pretty much maintenance-free… 🙂
Any chance you could do a seed spacing video by type for high intensity? Greens are obvious but what about radishes, carrots, tomatoes peppers etc…? Thanks again.
Successful High Intensity Gardening… S.H.IT gardening for short!! (Not a commentary on the video!!)
For intensive growing NASA have been using continuous lighting with excellent results. They use cool and low intensity in-canopy LED lighting to distribute the lighting to all plant surfaces which allows them to increase plant density. To improve lighting efficiency they turn on the vertical LED lighting as the plants grow taller. Australian plant breeding researchers are also speed breeding wheat with continuous light. From seed to seed in six weeks and have showed that the quality and yield of the plants grown under controlled climate and extended daylight conditions was as good or sometimes better than those grown in regular glasshouses.
Could you give more information about the lights? Where do you purchase these lights? Thank you a lot. God bless you.
Love it! I did this a few years back and loved the results until I watered too much. Thanks for the tips on watering! Also, are you going to hand pollinate the cucumbers and tomatoes?
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
luck that was a osem video and iam glad your plants are doing so well
What kind of bulbs do you light with and where do you find them?
Sounds good. Great info 🙂
Your videos contain so much important info. Thank you so much, I am one of those old timers, I have always planted the way my grandparents have planted with good results, but there is always room for improvement. So I will be trying your methods this year, I will let you know how things go.
Last year was my first year with my own garden. I was lucky to have watched your video before planting/sowing season, and since high intensity gardening made sense to me, I used your method. The results? PHENOMENAL!! I couldn't believe how much I was harvesting, and I'll use that method this year too. Thanks very much for your informative vids. 🙂
I grow weed lol in Gta
What do you think about potato tower?
"They don't have a snorkle" LOL!
I've got a small AeroGarden hydroponics that I'm growing a Romaine lettuce blend and Endive. I'm able to harvest about a half a bowl of salad greens every 8 days but I would love to branch out and have an inside bed like yours. Do you have instructions as to how to build your garden bed and where to buy the stuff to build it and where to get the lights? Ours would need to be in our garage and it's heated but it's only around 50 degrees. Would that be warm enough? Thank you for teaching us all how to be more self-sufficient! I love your videos!!
0:29 We have a lot plant?
Luke, have you ever investigated or experimented with the "no dig" method outside?
I have seen LED lights with a 2700 k rating is it the same as a CFL rating thank you for your time
Love your vlogs
It is amazing how can you talk in front of the camera during so much time without cutting. Congratulations. Great video.
I've subscribed to your channel. Last night i just planted three 11" containers with highintensity lettuce I used miracle grow potting soil and some organic 4-4-4 fertilizer. Your website was out of trifecta plus or I would have used it. I'm hoping for good results as I can't plant much do to limited space and budget.
Hi did i understand correctly about 4000 lettuces can be sown in about
10 sq meters ??
Can herbs be grown high density?
Concerning the CORE garderning method what do you use as your water battery ? I would love to see this garden fully grown if someone could post a link to one that shows it.
is this your final container you use for the high intensity gardening, or do you transplant later
