In my last gardening post I described how I planted out my mustard greens seedlings. Well, as will happen in the desert, three of my little seedlings succumbed to the heat.
I still have two, though. One is still in the Kratky. The other I planted into soil. I'll keep you updated on how they progress.

Gardening in the Desert: Planting Mustard Greens Using Recycled Materials and Kratky System5/26/2018 As you may recall, I live in the desert. Luckily, the weather has been very mild (by desert standards) lately. Even so, gardening in the high heat of the desert can be problematic at best and a multitude of dead plants at worst. Plants losing water is the biggest problem. So, this year we are trying our hand at hydroponics. Your plants can't lose water if they have their roots in water, right? We didn't want to use any hydroponics methods that involved pumps, misters or the need for electricity, as our power can go out at random out here. I also didn't want to spend a lot of money on this experiment. That left us with the one method that doesn't rely on pumps, misters or the need for electricity--and we mostly used recycled household materials to keep the costs down. Here's how I planted out my mustard greens seedlings: That's all there is to it. It can be done pretty inexpensively. I did have a late start, so my results might not be as good as if I'd started earlier in the spring. But I'll post an update to show how they've grown.
