Been messing around with tommies in the DWC the last few weeks and they are going crazy. I even tied up a shoot and hung it in the cup hole and its grown roots half way up the stem, really cool.

Hi Charlie, it will be interesting to see how the roots grow, I saw a tomato plant in another floating raft system and one plant took over more than half of an IBC bed about 300mm deep. Your plants look like they're going to go nuts. :D

I've also read that its not a good idea in the later stem as the hormones change to make more shoots rather than put energy into the fruit. Was in Chattersons farm is born thread (based on hydroponic growing practices)

Hey CHarlie, that glass looks the perfect size. If you lower it into one of the holes it would stick out halfway. Do you think it would grow?
