Good evening, everyone. I was wondering, is anyone with climate similar to coastal Puerto Rico growing any of these? If so, what system do you have & under what conditions are you growing them? Thanks in advance!
Edited to add: If you could also suggest a good source for seeds, it would be great! Thanks again!

Well I'm not in the caribbean but I do know that they go to seed in hot weather :)
Also don't like transplant stress otherwise they go to seed quicker, so seeds are a good way to start them :)

Sorry, I'm in middle of building my first aquaponics IBC system.

I have a massive vege garden habit though with pots, raised beds, wicking beds etc.

I would say spinach would be the hardest thing to grow in aquaponics and heat like the caribean.

Look for slow bolt varieties - maybe tuscan kale?
